A little less conversation...

This is the colour palette I came up with for the end of year t-shirt and DVD cover design (designed by "Whitie"). David has done a much better colouring job. I'm just showing myy attempt to be part of the crew. And I think the white outline lifts the design off the black background. I reckon it would look best big on the back of a shirt rather than the front. I think the text should be included in the design as well as the central logo. Click on the pic to see more detail.

I'm going on to a short 50 frame animated action. I'll see if I can get back to this one later (needs some arms).

Eye blinks and some eye brow animation to enhance the acting.

Today the troll grew a head and some legs. This is an 'animation workout', an in-class exercise to work on animation principles.
