Willie Real, Moritz Von Schwind

Look at this, my pal Willie recently posted this beautiful sheet. He writes about it: "It started as a doodle and turned into a party of 100 cats... and maybe a few of them squirrels that snuck in."

I immediately was reminded of the great Moritz von Schwind (1804 - 1871) and his "Cats Symphony". By the way, M. von Schwind was, besides Kley and Sullivant, of major influence for the classic Disney style.

CG Beast

Hey everyone, I just dropped back home from my holidays in East Africa - which were BTW incredibly great - and found this CG beauty in my mailbox, a CG version of one of my beast designs by the uber-talented Diego Moya Parra.
