Animatic #6! And the Standees (again)! And a blast from the past!

Pretty neat, huh? This is the last Hoogie and Stiff animatic for the foreseeable future. I capped myself at 6, to prevent myself from not doing other things Linendoll's and other related. BUT if a really good idea comes up for another one of these, I'm going to hit it... :)



Just this picture again. More in yesterday's post, I'm just fond of my expression in this one. Not too far from being called s**t-eating opened-mouth grin, I'd say...



OH! I was digging through old files, and found this gem from my college days, when I took Introduction to Animation in the Fall of 2005. Cute, eh?

TTYL!

Standees stand up!

So after much trial and error, I've constructed a pair of point-of-purchase (POP) display standees of Hoogie and Stiff. Here's a few more pics:





These bad-boys were made with an illustrator file to be 32" x 40", and then printed out in tiles. Using 3M-brand PMA (position-able mounting adhesive), I assembled it on a 32" x 40" foam-core board, and then cut the shape out. It took a while, and I had to rely on some acrylic and a sharpie to cover-up some smudges, but I feel they came out very well. Getting the idea across with ones sweat and tears, the callouses on ones hands a testament to the true grit of the go-get-em-tiger attitude that won the war and ensured two chickens in every pot, etc.


DRINK LINENDOLL'S BEER! It's good!



Here's a photo of my workspace. It's a little dirty right now, but I've been busy! Observant viewers might notice the Epson Workforce 600 I agonized over over last summer. It's neat.

OH! Before I forget, muchos gracias to Will Dinski, whom borrowed me the tripod I used for the pictures that include me in them. Will has studio space in the same building as me, and does really neat comics. Google this guy!

TTYL!
