The Periodic Table of Chemical Element Toons (song by Tom Lehrer, 2022)
A few weeks ago, I decided to make a new batch of background incidental toons for the city that my series takes place in, since I had a lot of time on my hands and felt like going on another toon designing spree, but I wanted to choose a theme for the new batch, and since I already made toons based on the BASIC elements (the main cartoonist’s toons, Earth, Air, Water, and Fire, who I also included in the corner of the table as a little bonus) back in December 2016, I decided to give CHEMICAL element toons a try, especially since Tom Lehrer’s song about the chemical elements has been stuck in my head ever since I was in 10th grade, it’s such a good song. It was fun working on all of these designs, but also super tiring because of all the designs I had to do and all the research that I had to do, but it was worth it. Honestly, before I started working on these designs, I had no idea what 90% of these elements were lol.
