Crunch

One of the techniques I used to use in the old newspaper strip format is the continuous background - a technique borrowed from 'The Perishers', a British comic strip I used to share a page with in the Daily Mirror when I was writing the strip 'Millie' in the 1990s. Maurice Dodd, the writer, had a background in animation and borrowed this technique, where the characters would move from frame to frame against a single backdrop, from his days on the Halas & Batchelor movie of Animal Farm. The new format ruins the effect by chopping it in half, but you can get the idea from the opening tryptich.

I, too, find the crunch of frosty grass oddly satisfying. And I like the way you've done the background.
