Lesson 4: 2 legged Characters UPDATE 2
Update:6-23-06
The Jerry mouse is from an Ising cartoon, and one of the earlier models. I dont think it's as appealing as the H+B ones, but I thought it was such a great pose that I desided to draw it.
I goofed the legs on the chipmunk looking thing, because I just couldnt immagine how the shape was supposed to go. Anyhow Thanks for taking a look at it guys.

Hey guys its been a few weeks since I posted new pics. I've been super busy at work. I picked up some new animation tricks and have used what I've gathered from the PB Lessons, and they've helped me a ton. I discovered a trick that allows me ot spend more time tweaking the movement frame by frame to produce more appealing arcs and follow through. Anyhow, Here are some drawings I did last night. I'll try to do more today, but I have a ton of riggig to do for a super squash and stretch 3d character for the Strut Your Reel community. We are shooting for H+B style stuff like Tom and Jerry.
Anyhow C&c's are welcome.

PS These are all paper drawings. I mostly use my tablet for 3d, now that I figured out how to use the stylus to maipulate the 3d camera.

Will you be sneakin' any of these guys into your video game work? Glad to see you're keepin' at it.
(And thanks for the kind words of encouragement!)
Craig,
hey man,
Well not the characters themselves, but tricks like shilloutting, and line of action are helping a ton. I'm actually shocked how much cleaner my animations are comming out, now that I've done some PB drawings.
Not only that, but when I draw before I play a multiplayer video game, I kick more ass. The lessons help more then just our drawing skills;)

The bear looks really nice. The others work well, but the necks are kinda long :)
Good to see you're still at it. I've been slowly slogging my way through those Tom & Jerry model sheets from lesson 7.
Keep up the good work!
>the lessons help more than just >our drawing skills;)
Yes, but can they help me win the tri-state tractor pull and beauty pageant?
