Just updating for Ya'll

I have a bunch of sketches I do everyday for animation/composition practice, and I post some just to have a place I can dump them!

http://mobilesponge.blogspot.com/

Feel free to check up, though I tend to let everyone know on all the other sites when I do

Oh and if your wondering what the "lessons" thing is about, here

http://www.animationarchive.org/2006/05/meta-100000-animation-drawing-course.html

Is a 10 step lesson plan from a book by Preston Blair (if you don't know who he is, wiki him before I KILL YOU TO DEATH) and step by step walkthroughs from John K. (Ren $ Stimpy creator)

At some point he would critique your stuff, but I keep getting different messages that he gave up on everyone (Big suprise)

It's nonetheless VERY helpful to still go through the lessons, and actually DO them too, not just skim through the stuff

Warning though: John K. is pretty hardcore in his belief, and a lot of what he says might be blasphemy to you, but just sift through that to his actual lessons, the man knows his shit

Everyone have a good New Years??

(Also posting some actual ART soon!)

Preston Blair? Maaan. You need some Eric Goldberg in your life. "Character Animation Crash Course." From the guy who brought you the Genie, Phil, and Symphony in Hues (Fantasia 2000).

Preston Blair is an animation GOD. "Cartoon Animation" is a fantastic resource for really cartoony animation.

Yeah, I heard of that link, I think it's finally time I actually try it out.
