Animation pencil test: Jasmine blowing on some hot chocolate

Here's a quick pencil sketch test I did for the character "Jasmine", just to see her come to life a bit.

This weekend I finally found some 0.3 mm graphite refills and a pen that can actually use them.

To be able to draw convincing character animation in 2D, you have to practice drawing the characters a lot. That way, you start to get a feeling for the "volumes" of their body.

Daily sketch: Thank you!

Today we want to say a big THANKS! to the awesome people who have supported our campaign so far.

Another background sketch. It's a mountain village with windmills. It's based a little bit on Corsica, except for the windmills. I visited Corsica a couple of years ago, and it left a big impression. There were mountains everywhere, and they all looked completely different. I'm from Holland originally, so I'm not used to any elevation at all. Perhaps I put the windmills in there to feel more at home... this environment is used to contrast against another environment in the film, which is more futuristic and technological. It will be fun to play out those differences.

Today's daily sketch is a futuristic city with a giant mech in it. What makes it different is that the houses are still kind of normal, just arranged with a lot of "post-modern" stuff, like pipes and mysterious sci-fi greebles. The mech is standing there like they are  building it there, as if it is a kind of ship wharf and the people living there are laborers working on it.
