Take The Bus

Lovely character design on the ants.


Update: By the way, Davide (see comments) is absolutely right, the clip with the penguins is indeed a funny and well designed one, too :) Love the design on the Orca whale:


And last but least, here's the one with the fireflies:

  3. If you are interested, Anonymous (so curios as a name :D), I can answer to your question.

    I work with drawings and paintings (not at Florian's level, of course) and I also have a problem at the eyes (Keratoconus). Well, it has been not a problem in past years. Now I just use contact lens and everything goes fine.

    I don't know if you like my answer (and my english too), but I hope so.

    ;D

  6. awesome clips!
    I like the ants best.
    And to Anonymous: Even if some problems with drawing show up, simply try to live your dream. I think it will be worth it. :)
