Where's the fifth finger?

#1 Postby abajan » Fri Jul 23, 2004 10:52 pm

Have you ever seen a cartoon character with five fingers on each hand? I must have watched hundreds of cartoons over my lifetime and none of the characters (whether in print or animation) have more than four fingers on each hand. Why is that? :?: Are the cartoonist/animators just too lazy to draw a fifth digit or is there more to it?

Enlighten me.

Lazy. :)

At least, that's what Walt told his granddaughter about the four fingers on Mickey's hand (that it takes less time to draw four fingers than it does to drive five).
