Animation Time! - Shark Rig


Today's Inspiration:
“I didn’t have any limitations. I could do anything.”

“I don’t mean to say that I’m all these things, but I try.
I got accused over the years of being a fine draftsman.
Actually I don’t really draw that well. It’s just I don’t stop trying as quickly.
I keep at it. I happen to have high standards and try to meet them.
I have to struggle like hell to make a drawing look good.”

Animation Time! - Pictoplasma Rig


Today's Inspiration:
“In our work, the question is, how much you absorb from others.
So for me, creativity, is really like a relay race. As children we are handed a baton.
Rather than passing it onto the next generation as is,
first we need to digest it and make it our own.”

“Always believe in yourself. Do this and no matter where you are, you will have nothing to fear.”

― Hayao Miyazaki
