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!

Display Standee

I've designed this one here for the express purpose of making a pair of display standees. When printed, Stiff, the one on the right, will be about 38" tall. Roughly.



A major paradigm shift in my life has come to conclusion, and to celebrate, I've bought a new pair of shoes. I'm rawther fond of these...

TTYL!
