A lot of your characters carry shot guns in their pockets don't they?

[ownerofpip]

[Spoo2]

That's AWESOME

[nathansgottagun]

HOW DID YOU DO THAT?!

did you take pictures of the paper, rub it out, move it then take another picture?! tell me please!

[darkhole777]

[HybridPictures]

The thing that kids dad would through when he is sad

[wolfofdarkness15]

[castlegardener]

this is great drawn animation. I would like to see you try your hand at making some puppets and animating them. You seem to have a real knack for smooth animation.

[CokeCake]

good music choice!

[lyndonhamer]

most of the backgrounds are static - they remain the same. what's your technique? do u use tracing paper or a lightbox??!

would love some advice....!

[faceofdoomness]

I use lotsa index cards, the layering capability in the program Monkey Jam, a light box and mechanical pencil and a really good eraser.

As for the static backgrounds... it was to save time animating. :D

yay for laziness.

[lyndonhamer]

can u draw real stuff as well?

i mean, can you draw stuff well that aren't stickmen?

would be good to know...

[faceofdoomness]

yeah if I try hard enough but I use "stickmen" for animations because its much easier.

Love the hand-drawn animation. What a ton of work! What happens in that last second?

[faceofdoomness]

the star that the "father" figure shot down to put onto the christmas tree fell on them. Thanks for the comment! :)

[cheeba34]

That is insanely good!!!!! 10 out 5 stars!!! the expressions are the best everything is so smooth. Too good!!!

[scissorsinabox]

great job! Do you animate by taking photos of paper you draw in or do the drawings go into an editing programe?

[faceofdoomness]
