s e q u e l s

I was pretty hyped for Toy Story 3 when it was first announced.
Not sure exactly how I feel about Toy Story 4.
Its story sounds interesting, but the third one ended perfectly. I'm not a big fan of Hollywood's interests of rebooting/sequeling everything, but Pixar does a good job with their movies. Heck, not even Pixar escaped the dreaded sequel bug however.

Although I must say that I'm kinda excited for Cars 3.

***edit: I saw Cars 3 not too long ago, and it was really great! I'd say it's the true "Cars 2" sequel! Don't get me wrong, I liked Cars 2, but Cars 3 was waaay better! I recommend giving it a watch!

The Ol' Big 21

Oh look! It's my birthday today! I reached the beer-chuggin' age of 21!
I did a quick little drawing for today! Wooooo, the ol' 21!

Propinquity Line-Up Update - Shoe Designs

The biggest addition to the line-up this time around are actual shoe designs for each character! What I didn't expect was that the addition of shoes actually added a bit more personality to each character's design! 

On top of that, Mandy's design and colors were changed a bit for consistency.
Currently, I'm working on doing the same shoes addition to the Class of 2422 character line-up. Look out for that update soon!

Love-Strucken Jenny

One thing I like about Jennifer is that she tends to fall in love with any good-looking guy she meets. Too bad she's kind of an awkward person to do anything about it.
Again, this character animation test also includes a bit of secondary animation for me to practice on, which is the stack of papers flying out everywhere. I think it came out looking alright. Another added layer of challenge that I tried to place on myself was that I tried to animate on 1's as much as I can, which is more apparent in the second half.
Looking at it again, I just realized I forgot to include Jenny's freckles on her face. How can I miss such a small detail?

I'm pretty satisfied overall with the final product! I'll try and start another character animation thing soon since it's so accomplishing to see a character finally animated.

Doji Pocket's Alt Pages

Hey! So!
Since I have limited internet access to update the blog, I'll be using more of the Twitter, Instagram, and tumblr pages; I've got to bring those pages up to speed anyways.

In fact, I really ought to use those pages more often in general anyways since I'm out for the summer! I'll try to post some posts that are already waiting to go up here, but in the meantime go be sure to follow my mentioned social media pages!

In case you forgot, my Twitter/IG usernames are @dojipocket, and for tumblr search up "doji pocket" in the site's search bar. The links for all these pages are under the "Page of Links" section found on the right side of the blog!
