Description More practices from Universal's "Adventures of Brer Rabbit." This was one of the scenes I really liked. Brer Turtle comes off as a father figure and mentor to Janey, and I thought it would be cool to practice a bit of the background as well. Done with reference.

Really? You know I keep having people say that recently and I've been wondering why?

Because your comments are heartfelt and inspiring. I look forward to them and it makes showing my art here more worthwhile to know someone enjoys it.

good to know , though I suppose you want criticism sometimes

I do love critiques as well if they are well written, helpful and not too nitpicky.

Yeah I don't think I'm very good a critiques mainly because I know I have a long way to go myself and that makes it hard for me to say what people could improve on

darkmane In reply to Erikku-Kun [2011-03-15 13:15:14 +0000 UTC]

I usually give positive messages because I know most people can see what is wrong on their own. And as we study and practice, we will continue to improve automatically. Unless someone asks for a critique, they usually want positive reinforcement on what they have posted. Its something they are proud of and something they want to show the world. So critiques that aren't necessarily wanted on certain pieces can make an artist lash out.

I like it because they dared to tell a story no one else seem to do, as well as reliving the kind of cartoon violence you don't see anymore because they present a "bad example." This was a direct reference at the start with that cutesy show she was watching...

You are right about that...and since there aren't many 2d animated films, it was so refreshing to see great designs and animation.

Shame it didn't landed big. This was at least the better of Universal's videos.

You should really check it out. I think it is one of the rare gems that sadly not many know about.

Charming! I love the detail level and body language ^^
Do you plan to color it by any chance?

Thanks bro! I'm not sure...I usually practice the poses and all, but since it is so heavily referenced anyway, I may just leave it a drawing.
