Paperwalker: Epic Reference Photo

I just got this from my editor, this is the best character reference photo ever.

About me

Florian Satzinger was a student of well-regarded Disney, MGM and Hanna-Barbera animator and animation director Ken Southworth («Alice In Wonderland», «Woody Woodpecker», «Tom & Jerry», «The Flintstones», «Peanuts», «The Smurfs») who influenced him greatly. Having worked for clients that include Red Bull, Warner Bros and Disney, Satzinger is now developing Toby Skybuckle© with France and Japan based Ankama Media Group and John Starduck© with Tigobo Animation Studios. Besides his design and production work, he holds a lectureship for character design, analog animation and animation history, in collaboration with Maryam Laura Moazedi, at the University of Applied Sciences, Salzburg.

«Florian Satzinger has a drawing style with a snap and verve that harken back to the best of classic Disney and mid 20th Century Warner Brothers animation. The lines with which he delineates his characters zing, bounce and swoop so delightfully that they suggest lively motion even before they’re animated. Satzinger credits Southworth as his major influence, and his work in the style of great classic hand-drawn animation shows his continuation of that tradition.»
