The Fisherman's Request

This is an animatic for a short film concept.

Animatic for a short film I’m working on.

Hoping to move into production soon.

A bunch of concept and character design development I’m working on. This is a character I’ve been drawing since I was in my early teens. Still to this day trying to figure him out. Loving the journey though.

Some Character designs and development and some expression pages for a Sherlock Holmes retelling I’m working on.

Work in progress, roughing everything in. So late on HP week but still gonna power through!

A little more tightening down, going to get more wild windmill activity with his arms I think though. 

[dylantholden]

Man this one is killing me. I thought it would be easier to block in than the other ones but I think the fact that he’s so close to the viewer really made me realize how locked this is gonna have to be, fun challenge. :)

[dylantholden]

another rough pass, enjoying working on this one a lot

Still working on this, he’s a character from a personal short I’m working on. He is known as “The Owlman” he is the keeper of the world’s true history and protects “The Old Sword” a weapon bestowed upon the hero of the age in times of need. :)

Having fun with Sketchbook Pro’s animation utility. Might change the landing and have him trip. Highly recommend Sketchbook Pro for roughing in animation but would suggest doing final cleanup in another program. Sketchbook Pro if you’re listening it would be amazing if you implemented multiple layers into your animation layers instead of the provided 4. Other than that great program!
