Don Bluth Draws Dirk and Singe the Dragon from Dragon's Lair

[Denoneer]

I've never been one for hero worship - but I'll make an exception for Don Bluth. This artwork is timeless.

@visara1313

And he also did animation for Disney's The Rescuers.

[ReccaWolf]

I hope you do make more Dragon's Lair and Space Ace animated games in the near future. Thanks a lot for this. Awesome artwork as always! ;)

[HDibbles]

I can't believe how focused and disciplined he is with his lines, when I draw I scribble all over the place

I miss the old days when animation was handrawn and stop-motion. I could deal with CGI a bit more if it didn't completely take over. Forgetting the work of geniuses like Don Bluth and Ray Harryhausen is to forget what film's about entirely. This was one of my favorite games too.

@visara1313 Secret of NIMH was AMAZING! But I got bummed when Bluth started making the bad films in the 90s. How did the guy who created NIMH and Land Before Time sink to making Rock A Doodle and Troll in Central Park?

Like Richard Williams , Don Bluth is a pure genious of disney quality animation .

Don Bluth is an genious, and I really enjoyed Dragon's Lair. Especially when the game was released in 3-D for Gamecube. You do get that feeling of actually being in that castle and being part of the action. However getting those treasures were sometimes risky, as well. I somehow knew that a huge castle like that woud've had much more levels and room to explore. And even Space Ace was very futuristic and fun as well.

Amazing art, Don. I wouldve given anything to have seen this video in 96 when I had an art assignment on perspective. You did a perfect presentation on it. I should show this to art teachers.

[Melvinwacko]

Great to see this video. I really hope the Dragon's Lair movie is still going to be made

[Dalen77]

Lets hope Princess and Frog dose well, all though im skeptical it will, its so hard to see movies that are rated A, i know your thinking whats A stand for, well its A for annoying. I personaly think Disney destroyed hand drawn animation by continually releasing movies that were so lame people just coundnt stand it anymore. But on the flip side parents need a movie to occupy there kid during the Christmas vaca, so its possible it could do well, lets hope so.

[C0L0SSUS]

This video has made my day - this seems to be a dying art these days because of computer animation. It's unfortunate, and not just because you can't hang pixels on a wall!

[NotOrdinaryInGames]

So, I heard you are making a Dragon's Lair movie. How's the project?

[transformersrock]

Best animation artist and movie maker I have ever heard of and been a fan of. Wish he still made movies!

[NotOrdinaryInGames]

Don't forget Hayao Miyazaki.

[jovidman69]

Thank you Don! Loved the game when I was a kid in '83!

[TheDeadlyAvenger]

I'm in heaven! The master himself drawing my childhood hero! It doesn't get much better than this!

Thanks Don! you have no idea how much I loved Dragon's Lair and Space Ace, I still play the Digital Leisure DVD versions today!

Thanks for creating these wonderful characters!

[caymxxx]

Also keep in mind everyone use your visual conception before developing a image or character, seeing it before drawing it is a powerful advantage in any field of the creation process.

[theinhtun1]

awesome

[MrSirSigma]

That was amazing! Watching the master himself is really inspiring.

[bellamoretaaa]

hey, could you do a walk cycle for Daphne or Kimberly

[Neohin]

even for those who take drawing only as a hobby (me included) watching this is a pure delight, receiving small but important tips to somehow improve. Please keep it on!

[nhojproductions]

Thats an amazing scene you drawn their, I am looking forward to more vidoes from you and I am also getting alot of help on building movement into my characters poses.

I would like also if its not to much trouble,to see what a real directers animation desk looks like.

thanks again Don Bluth

[OtakuMan26]
