Mighty Men & Monster Maker simulator

An example of art created by the Mighty Men & Monster Maker: A creature with the head of a Draculesque vampire, the torso of a tentacled alien, and the legs of a mighty ape-man, all rendered in somewhat smudgy, messy dark blue on a paper texture.'
Here's what my MMMM simulator generates. All source art by Dave Stevens!

You ever wonder if you could do a thing, and then kind of idly figure out a way to do it, and then find yourself compelled to do that thing because now you know it's possible?

I recently went down a path like that, and it led me to making a web page that kinda-sorta simulates the ancient Mighty Men & Monster Maker—kind of a drawing-with-training-wheels toy, and arguably an analog precursor to video game character customization systems.

For a little kid in an era where videogames barely existed, much less character creation screens, this was magical. And, for real, it was probably a big part of why I'm such a sucker for cosmetic DLC these days. Might have something to do with my approach to TTRPGs, even.

Anyway, please check out this dumb, pointless thing I made.
