Tip 003 - Don't Dress up as the Fatman

This has been quite fun, never have I animated anything just using the brush tool, and it's quite a release, I normally use the pen tool, or even the pencil tool for everything. Santa has his own holiday, so don't dress up as the Fatman!





Aniblogathon is coming to an end, and our projects will soon be revealed. More to come.

Tip Nine BG Vectorized

I have now imported and drawn the bg I had sketched earlier today into flash. Took me quite a bit to complete but i'm really happy with the outcome. Couldn't decide on the color palette I was going to use, I think I've made the right choice. More to come...

Tip Nine - Don't Pee on Graveyards! BG

Well Tip Eleven is now completed as far as animation wise, and I have begun Tip Nine. Here is my pencil sketch of what the background will look like, and I think I'm just using two colors, black and orange, or maybe black and a cool blue. I actually drew it on the back of a storyboard paper, which explains the little squares in the background. more to come.
