Trailer and update

Well that took me long enough to get round to doing! So it's not really much of a trailer but more of a few of my favourite scenes. I found it quite hard to make a trailer for something that is so short.

Also I've been trying to get some inspiration for a new puppet but I am really drained for ideas at the moment so I am going to make some thing I have wanted to try out for a while now and was reminded when I did this illustration the other, It not the most exciting drawing but I'm getting closer to the look I want to achieve.

I have to decide whether I am going to try and make the wings on it fold down or if its is going to be a flying only puppet. I would prefer to be able to fold them in, maybe have interchangeable wings. I am thinking it's going to be a stylized design rather than realistic so I can have fun with materials, also I wont need molds and what not.

A super quick concept and armature sketch

Oh and this is Pip, another practice sketch working on texture with brushes.

Hopefully I will have more to report on soon. Hope everyone is doing well.
P.s I finished and passed animation degree with flying colours. First class honours!!!

Oh and it's my birthday, I don't want to be 27 I want to be peterpan!!!!!
