The accidental cartoonist  
Here is my entry for the past AF character design challange. WOW, that was fun! My drawing ability sometimes seems almost like a completely separate being from me. When I try to sit down to create something specific, the results are usually mixed at best, but when I just start drawing without any direction or goal I am suprised by how well it turns out. It's like my best work is when I just get out of the way and let it happen. Sometimes I can nudge it towards what I want, and then it is pure gold! I need to aimlessly draw more.




Yowza!

Thats very cool that you can do that Mark. It took me a couple of years to get to that same stage and I don't have it down completely. But it has been proven that if you let your mind free your hand will do wonders. It may look like scribbles at first, but eventually it somehow transforms into a masterpiece.

Thanks! I really feel that I'm improving a lot lately. At least on the drawing end. I would really like to have more breakthroughs like this with animation. Maybe it will happen...
