Starting off with a very happy Hercules. At his point I don't remember which scene this key drawing of mine belongs to. I would need to look it up.
Let's go back to the start of Herc's visual development. Beginning with anatomical studies.
These are my thumbnail sketches from the scene in which he meets Meg. I drew them from video reference. He is all shy here, almost forgets his name. He clears his throat and introduces himself.
And he looked like this before I started animating.
Another key animation drawing. With wet hair from a scene after the fight with Nessus.
I am just so pleased that today the film seems to have found new audiences that embrace both the satire and the pathos we tried to convey.
