Nathan Sapio Redux

Heres a rough idea of how Nathan's artwork would adapt to my style.
And here's the best sample of my animation capabilities thus far.

i was delighted at the attention to detail in your clip. i don't know if this makes sense, but the ...floppiness... of the lines, like when the little characters are running about and preparing the slingshot, and the way the knight character grabs onto his shield as he's falling through the air - those details are really amusing, very thoughtful.

I agree with Sarah. Very good attention to detail in this project. My personal favorite is when the knight is while the knight is falling through the trees, you can see the little leaves and acorns zipping by--a great detail that may very well often be ignored. As far as animation is concerned, this was very well thought out.

Second, I LOVED your adaptations of Nathan's previous works. I very much enjoy Nathan's work, and must say I am a big fan. Seeing such a adaptation was amusing, and I would be excited to see where something like that can go.

Thank you very much. The aforementioned "floppiness" is typical of rubber hose animation, such as Ren & Stimpy and Dexter's Laboratory, and is VERY fun to mess around with. I'm afraid my obsessive attention to detail may be what's kept others from getting too involved in this project. :(
