Baxter Walk Cycle

I’m working on a walk cycle for my Baxter moji.  I think it will eventually be incorporated into a longer piece but right now im just getting familiar with ToonBoomAnimate.

First Post

So after several month admiring other artist, designers and animators blogs I wanted to give blogging another shot, the first go was highly unsuccessful.

Here are some of the sketches I created for an online community called mojizu.

With Basie I originally drew him with a beer can but changed his beverage of choice to a wine. But hes still an oaf.

After I bring my characters into Illustrator I alter their shapes a lot. Especially shrinking and stretching them to get a more playful or exaggerated posture.
