Here's the first day of work. As you all know, I do a "sketch" of a model that requires realistic proportions by assembling primitives. To get references for this model, I sat down in front of my TV and took pictures with my digital camera of the show after I had paused the DVD. It actually worked out pretty danged great. I've never tried to model something that has always been drawn in an animated cartoon before. It introduced some really weird aspects. Specifically, the proportions of the model change for every scene that's drawn of it. Details change between shows. It was also interesting to see that animators don't go into great detail sometimes as well because I suspect they don't want to draw it all the time! -Kix
