It's my latest cartoon. I'd post a screenshot, but then I'd have to take one, so forget that.

ENJOY!

I liked 'At the ol' Busstop' but I can't review it cause I'm banned (silly me) so i thought I'd comment on it here.

The style was great, how they're always moving when they're talking is really cool, and their facial features and that don't stay in same place or the same size which I think shows you put more effort into it.

I mean you could've drawn it where they stay still, and they're talking the same way, moving their hands in similar directions but that would've been boring, it just looks really good the way you did it.

Awesome job man,
Cheers.

Thanks a bunch. I'm really glad you liked it.

Body language is super important in any animation you do. It's not good, ever, if you just have these boardlike people talking. Even stiff boring character needs to have some body language to him. Some movement.

Look at all the great animations in history, when people talk they move their bodies and heads and faces too. Heck, look outside your window at people and you'll see that they move!

That being said there is a HUGE problem with my cartoon. Listen to the tone the dialogue sets and then watch how excited the guy in the green shirt is. THEY DON'T MATCH! I'M A ABSOLUTE FAILURE!

Anyway, I really appreciate the response. Hope you'll keep an eye out for my future work.

Nice work! I'd love to see a short action flick by yuns. Also, I think I'll wait and watch Step Up 2 (The Streets) on HBO. I can see the draw, but I don't think it's theater worthy. Did Step Up 2 influence you to create At the Ol' Busstop?

Yeah I sure do love thin crust pizza.

Thanks. What a weird fluke. I just guessed Dan as a joke.

Thanks, but I would like to keep it for myself.

Thanks. What a lucky guess.

Hey, great job winning that beard contest.

Thanks, but it was a fluke.
