At long last, I have the honor to present, Something Fantastic.

The joint work of 3 animation students, finally come to fruition.

It was hard work, and long hours, and at times we where all

very interested in reenacting certain shot on one an other;

the most common being the one where the dwarf hits the troll in

the face with a hammer. But in the end I believe it was a success.

please enjoy.

Final Backgrounds

Finished Backgrounds painted in Photoshop by Adrienne.

This production was the first time she has a achieved background painting, let alone a full coloured forest.

Character Design

Concept designs we have been working on over the past few weeks, all trying to keep with the same style. Line art by Sean and Adrienne, colouring from a mix of all three of us.
