Description
Another in the never-ending series of renders based on songs.
"Withered Hope" by They Might Be Giants really affected me, it's got such melancholy lyrics with such a cheerful tune.
Plus, I couldn't have found a better use for the Samedi (free at RDNA) figure to represent Sad Sack. I created the paper heart prop - and I may release it as a freebie in case anyone needs it.
"Today Withered Hope saw the Very Sad Sack
And she tried not to meet his eyes
And he cut out a paper heart, pinned it to his arm
Gave her everything he was holding in his head"
