'The Great Stink' was a period in Victorian history when the city of London was overwhelmed by the hideous stench of sewage. 'Grubbers' and 'toshers' were the nicknames given to the underclass who would scavenge drains and sewers looking for useful items, and who, through exposure, developed immunity to many of the sewage related diseases that proved fatal to many at the time.
Taking this period and giving it a steampunk, sci-fi spin is the basis for the animated movie 'The Great Stink', an ongoing project which will eventually see the light of day!
This is the first of the grubber puppets, his bizarre form is due to the fact that they scavenge for cybernetics and prosthetics with which they upgrade their impoverished, failing bodies.
