I was busy reliving the 3rd season of The Mighty Boosh today, and found a nice little morsel of animation to blog- namely the story of the most infamous character of all... the Crack Fox. I just love the artwork by Noel Fielding, and the effect of the realistic grass layer as a backdrop.
The Crack Fox has to be one of the most unsettling characters ever created... he's just all kinds of wrong. God love him.

Mine Stickman
I finally decided to post my very first animation, which I made last year. I'd only just downloaded iStopMotion on my Mac and was keen to see how the program worked. So this stickman was really only intended as a short test, but I guess I got a bit carried away..
Remember, first attempt here! This was before I became aware of the Principles of Animation (thanks Frank!), so of course there's all sorts of things wrong with it.
Still, it took a lot of work- those are 800 individually-cut frames of greaseproof paper, people! I didn't have a light-box at that stage and I needed a transparent medium. But hey, it's all a means to an end, right?

Notes On Biology
Awesome animation clip from YouTube. It takes a while for the action to kick in, but it's so worth it- unbelievably clever stuff. I can't get enough of 'Robot- Elephant', cracks me up every time!
