The Ramones animations are  having a life of their own. Lost count of the blogs and tumblrs that they keep springing up on.  Thanks to Timnapalm among many others for posting them on their blogs and giving them a nice write up.

Another image of what i have been working on .

Unblocked

Image
All the Ramones cartoons that i made stretching back 2 or 3 years are now all unblocked and available to watch again. Warner Music Group must have come to some arrangement with YouTube/Google i really dont know . You get a communication from Youtube when they delete or block a video but not when they unblock it. Happy they're back though . the animation is really 'basic' on some particularly 'Basement' which is a bit painful for me to watch . I didnt have a wacom tablet back then so it was all drawn with a mouse. I did start on 2 other Ramones cartoons. So who knows maybe if the ban using wmg copyrighted artists really is off i'll complete them and put them up.

Sketches Bits & Pieces

A couple of practice sketches one with charcoal and the other with a dip pen, which takes a bit of getting used to.

Slow and Steady

Image
Yes still working my way through the Yellow Submarine tribute, i'll do a proper write up nearer the time it's ready . Probably springtime. Looking good though. I'm trying things i've never attempted before, pushing way past my comfort zone. Its the only way to learn and improve i guess.

Shut Up Little Man

Image
An Audio Misadventure The Sundance Film Festival 2011 starts next weekend. I contributed some animation to one of the films in competition 'Shut Up Little Man'. I think it gets its world premier at Sundance as well . Its about a minutes worth of animation . I haven't seen the film so i'm not sure how it fits in but its a re-make of Orson Welles Frozen Peas outtake that i've had up on youtube for a while. I bust a gut to get it done but i guess its worth it now. . If there was any way to get over to Sundance and see it i would. It should be interesting . I'll have to wait for the dvd or a showing in London So best of luck to Matt and everyone involved for next week and beyond.
