Zaltag Animation 4 of 4

The last test, this one is dealing with Zaltags expressions and the transition from one face pose to the other.

I use a Mirror to look at my expression then draw it on Zaltag and exaggerate on some of them. Then I animate them. There are 20 different expressions I done on this there was more but I cut it down to 20.

This one took two weeks to do.
195 frame used to extending the pictures so you can see each of the expressions.
140 frame for the animation of the face changes from one expression to the other.

In total that 335 frames used.

Zaltag Animation 3 of 4

Two of four animations of Zaltag doing a series of movements. I this one show the animation of him hopping in stick from to rough animation to clean up and then to color.

The hop took 9 frames and 5 hours to animation and then I extend it to 40 frames so he can hop longer.

Inking

Just thought you guys would like to see what I’m working on.

Yes it Nestor I’ll have more I more info on this when it’s completely done,
You can see that I’m using a fine paint bush and India Ink to do this and the white thing at the side is a seashell to hold the drops of ink.

Despicable Me

My first Despicable Me fanart, Margo, Edith, and Agnes tackles Gru to the ground, and I couldn’t resist put Gru’s creepy dog Kyle.

I did this pic after I came back from seeing the 2D version of the movie yesterday, And yes I like it’s very well made film I’m planning to see the 3D one Monday.

I just couldn’t stop laughing at the jokes in this film and Gru and the Minions stole the show for me.

This film made it to number 3 of my top favorite animated films.

Nestor gets pranked

This is an concept art of that comic I was working on titled “A Prank to Far”

The smaller character in this next to Mayum the gorilla is a baboon name Brandon who’s sort of like the trouble making clown of the jungle and loves to pull practical jokes.

The plot
The plot of this story is that Brandon was pulling a prank but Nestor stopped him so now Brandon targets him for some pranks for revenge.

Later that day Nestor and Mayum got into a bit of an argument end in Nestor in insulting Mayum this was the perfect opportunity for Brandon plans and he talks Mayum into assisting him in pranking Nestor, agents his better judgment he agree to help unaware of Brandon revenge.

So basically though out the days Brandon and Mayum fallows Nestor everywhere pulling pranks on everyone Nestor is with and the victims blames him for it.

This Scene
In this pic Nestor got pelted with mangos by some female orangutans as a result of one of Brandon’s pranks. After he got away he went over to a near by pound to wash off, not knowing that Brandon and Mayum Were there and they took his clothes.

Nestor soon finds that his clothes are gone and gets mad after realizing it was Brandon, now he has to go home without being seen.

Brandon and Mayum are hiding behind a tree and some bushes watching the whole scene, Brandon was trying so hard not to laugh out load and Mayum was at all pleased with this prank but couldn’t resist laughing.

I decided to post all three parts of the art from sketch to finish.
