I'm curious, what were the name of the old 1940 1950 comics featuring Donald Duck and his family where they were going on treasure hunts? Weren't those what inspired Ducktales? I would love to read those.
I totally agree – a 30 second intro is way too long for this type of video. But when I did this film 12 years ago I had never done an intro to a video. Besides that I never thought I would be able to show my animation to more than my family and friends.
Very nice animation, love how it blends with the music=) This one and Garfield were the very first comics, I had read..it brought me back to that time:D
Greetings from Bulgaria and a Happy New Year to you and everyone else here=)
Thank you very much! Glad you liked it! :) When I found this music from Swan Lake I knew I would be able to animate Scrooge diving in money to it. I feel honored to bring you back to your childhood memories of your first comics.
Scrooge is the only one who can dive into money. In Carl Barks´ comic "Only a Poor Old Man" (1952) Scrooge fools the Beagle Boys to try to dive into his money – but they end up bashing their heads on the hard surface.
If Family Guy is why you came here, you need to go and read the entire Uncle Scrooge catalog so you can be introduced to one of the greatest characters in comic book history. You really don't know what you're missing...
To begin with – I´m a bit of a geek when it comes to the Disney ducks. Otherwise I would not talk about the “real” Scrooge in the first place. :)
I just want to specify that it´s Scrooge from the comics and not from Duck Tales I base my short animation on. I like Duck Tales too but I know I would have liked it even better if they hadn’t changed anything from the comics of Carl Barks. In my opinion – why chance something perfect?
Duck Tales is different from the comics in several ways. For example in DT the Beagle Boys have different looks. In the comics they all look the same. In DT Donald Duck joins the Navy and you never see him in any other episode (as far as I know).
In terms of my film the things I mean differ it from Duck Tales is that you never see Scrooge´s money swim in DT as it is shown in the comics of Carl Barks. I have tried to animate as closely to the original money swim as I could.
I think the name “Scrooge” fits the richest duck in the world perfectly. Everybody who is familiar with the character Scrooge in Charles Dickens´ “A Christmas Carol” immediately knows what type of character Scrooge is. Besides that - with a name that begins with the letter “S” you can also make reference to American money by putting a big “$” on the Money Bin.
I totally agree. In a matter of fact I had a subscription of Picsou Magazine for a while even though I don´t read French. Why? Don Rosa did special pin-up pages for Picsou Magazine during that time.
Thank you! Unfortunately that never gonna happen. It was fun and instructive to try animation but I have never been interested in working with it. What I want to do is to draw comics with the Disney ducks. That is where my passion is!
I´m truly flattered by your comments! Thank you very much! To be compared with Don Rosa in any way is an honor. He is without a doubt the artist that has influenced me the most.
If you haven’t already seen it check out my other video: “My Donald and Scrooge drawings”. That video include different drawings with the ducks I have made.
Don Rosa has many unique gags in his comics but the mouse eating a bill isn´t unique for Rosa. There have been mice in Carl Barks´ comics too – threatening to destroy all of Scrooge´s bills. But at the same time I have to admit that I had the cover from Uncle Scrooge 281 in my head. A cover by Rosa where Scrooge equipped with a spade is trying to remove a bill-eating mouse. But I never tried to make my mouse look like Rosa´s.
Thank you very much – I´m flattered! :) As you understand Don Rosa is my great inspiration. If you want to see more Disney drawings I have made look here:
Go to DeviantArt and search for "Don Rosa 50". Then click on the drawing with the text "Happy 50th birthday Don!". Then click on "More from Ted Johansson" and you will se my gallery.
I could watch this over and over without getting bored. Also, when people wonder things like: "Why do well all strive for money? Where does it really get us?", you just have to point to this video.
You should be proud to have a signed comic book by a talented artist as Don Rosa! I have met Don Rosa several times and I have therefore a lot of comics books signed by him. Among them both the English and the Swedish version of The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck. I have also some drawings and a original comic page.
@wanteddesigndotse Back when Don came to Greece I couldn't make it to Athens in time, so I had a friend get a book signed in my stead :( He said Don was overwhelmed by a huge crowd of happy Greeks that he didn't really expect, so he didn't have time to do anything besides sign and the signing lasted well over the planned time. My friend also got to chat with Don's wife, who was just as amazed by the Greek fanbase :p I wish I could have met Don in person since I grew up with his works >.<
Don Rosa has always been very loyal to his fans. It´s too bad you never got the chance to meet him personally. We can always hope he will visit Greece again. If you have a comic convention and they invite him I´m sure he would be glad to come.
Nice to see the animation dedicated to Carl Barks, as well as an "inspired by" inscription to him:)... but the design of Scrooge is clearly based much more on Don Rosa's design. It shows especially in the eyes and the beak.
Oh, and the rat kinda looks like he sneaked in from a different universe.
I´m sorry for my late reply but here it comes. For those familiar with the art of Don Rosa I guess it´s not very hard to see where I´ve got my influence. Don Rosa was the artist who really made me hooked on Donald Duck comics.
Even if my drawing style is more inspired by the work of Rosa I still wanted to dedicate the animation to Carl Barks – the creator of the richest duck in the world.
Thanks but I wouldn´t be a great Disney animator! For that you need to be much more skilled! But what I would like to see is a Disney film with Uncle Scrooge not based on Duck Tales but on the comics of Carl Barks and Don Rosa.
Fantasick animation! I think no one can do that better! (Only the professional can do that better) But is the best uncle scrooge animation i ever had seen!
I´m truly flattered! Thank you very much for your comments! :) I probably would have done the film better if I had done the film today (10 years later) but my goal isn´t to animate more Scrooge films. What I hope to do is to get the chance to draw Scrooge comics professionally in the spirit of Carl Barks and Don Rosa. That´s where my passion is!
Part 2: I can actually recall the one comic where Uncle Scrooge loaned out money to Donald because all his vaults were filled to the brim and he thougfht Donald would squander the money and thus eliminate the overlfow. Donald's investments paid off and the resulting trucks of money that showed up at US's vaults had him perplexed about having even more money to somehow store! Loved seeing US again and live! How wonderful of you to create and post! Thanks so much!
Thank you very much for your comments! Glad you enjoyed the film! Uncle Scrooge comics have always been my favorite comics especially those made by Carl Barks and Don Rosa. The comic you refer to must be “Spending money” (WDC 144) from 1952. One of many good Carl Barks comics.
Thank you so much for creating and posting this. There were a handful of comics that II enjoyed as a young child chief among them was Uncle Scrooge, Superman and Batman.
I know Scrooge does that in the comics. I guess I must have been a bit lazy at the end. :) It was easier for me to animate the coins passing Scrooge´s head than animate a lot of coins hitting him on the head. This is my version of the daily money swim and therefore it isn´t exactly as in Carl Barks comics but hopefully close enough. If I ever get the chance to draw a Scrooge comic I promise I will do the money swim properly! :)
Thank you very much! To answer your question: Why not? ;) Joking apart. I have just not thought of it until recently. I came to think about a friend who had published his examination film on YouTube and thought “That should I do too!”. But I couldn´t dream there would be as many people interested in seeing my film as there have been.
Glad you liked it. In the beginning of the animation I have written “This animation is dedicated the creator of Uncle Scrooge; Carl Barks”. I´m fully aware that Carl Barks created the character but that doesn´t change the fact that it still is a Disney character. Otherwise you wouldn´t read “Walt Disney´s Uncle Scrooge” on the covers of the American Disney comics. Carl Barks created many of the wonderful characters of Duckburg but they all belong to the Walt Disney Company.
Did the music from this clip came from a certain classical piece or did you make it yourself ? I really like it and I want to get the full version of it !
Really glad you liked it so much! :) The music is from Tchaikovsky´s Waltz from "Swan Lake". Search for "Waltz from Swan Lake" on Spotify or similar music page and you will find the full version.
I was really happy when I found the music and realized that it would fit my idea of an amimated Scrooge diving in money.
I´m honored to get a comment like that! Unfortunately I don´t have any more animation films like this one but if you want to see different kind of drawings I´ve made please visit my homepage: wanteddesign.se.
I'm curious, what were the name of the old 1940 1950 comics featuring Donald Duck and his family where they were going on treasure hunts? Weren't those what inspired Ducktales? I would love to read those.

I´m truly flattered! Thank you very much for your comments! :) I probably would have done the film better if I had done the film today (10 years later) but my goal isn´t to animate more Scrooge films. What I hope to do is to get the chance to draw Scrooge comics professionally in the spirit of Carl Barks and Don Rosa. That´s where my passion is!

Part 2: I can actually recall the one comic where Uncle Scrooge loaned out money to Donald because all his vaults were filled to the brim and he thougfht Donald would squander the money and thus eliminate the overlfow. Donald's investments paid off and the resulting trucks of money that showed up at US's vaults had him perplexed about having even more money to somehow store! Loved seeing US again and live! How wonderful of you to create and post! Thanks so much!

Thank you very much for your comments! Glad you enjoyed the film! Uncle Scrooge comics have always been my favorite comics especially those made by Carl Barks and Don Rosa. The comic you refer to must be “Spending money” (WDC 144) from 1952. One of many good Carl Barks comics.
Have a nice day!

@wanteddesigndotse Wow, thanks Ted! Gee, remembering a comic book story from the age of 8, how wonderful to know.

Thank you so much for creating and posting this. There were a handful of comics that II enjoyed as a young child chief among them was Uncle Scrooge, Superman and Batman.

This was really well done but us Scroogophiles know U.S. tossed his coins up & let them hit him on the head - he loved it!

I know Scrooge does that in the comics. I guess I must have been a bit lazy at the end. :) It was easier for me to animate the coins passing Scrooge´s head than animate a lot of coins hitting him on the head. This is my version of the daily money swim and therefore it isn´t exactly as in Carl Barks comics but hopefully close enough. If I ever get the chance to draw a Scrooge comic I promise I will do the money swim properly! :)

Thank you very much! To answer your question: Why not? ;) Joking apart. I have just not thought of it until recently. I came to think about a friend who had published his examination film on YouTube and thought “That should I do too!”. But I couldn´t dream there would be as many people interested in seeing my film as there have been.
Have a nice day!

Really love it but I have to tell you that Scroodge was originally created by Carl Barks, unlike the other duck characters. Is not one of Disney's.

Glad you liked it. In the beginning of the animation I have written “This animation is dedicated the creator of Uncle Scrooge; Carl Barks”. I´m fully aware that Carl Barks created the character but that doesn´t change the fact that it still is a Disney character. Otherwise you wouldn´t read “Walt Disney´s Uncle Scrooge” on the covers of the American Disney comics. Carl Barks created many of the wonderful characters of Duckburg but they all belong to the Walt Disney Company.

Really awesome scrooge Mcduck animation !
Did the music from this clip came from a certain classical piece or did you make it yourself ? I really like it and I want to get the full version of it !

Really glad you liked it so much! :) The music is from Tchaikovsky´s Waltz from "Swan Lake". Search for "Waltz from Swan Lake" on Spotify or similar music page and you will find the full version.
I was really happy when I found the music and realized that it would fit my idea of an amimated Scrooge diving in money.
