It would also be great to see any admiration you have for modern characters and animators' works as well. <br /><br />Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.

I'm simply fascinated by animation & am seriously thinking about doing it. I remember you said something about being your own critic. Well, I've been very critical how I draw cartoon characters & have been working harder & harder to improve my drawing skills before I even attempt to do an animated clip a few seconds long. Thanks again for sharing the works of the Disney animators as well as your own work, Andreas!

Did Milt study drawing at schools? How much he practised drawing , whe he was younger or was he always "He did not draw, if not needed"?Markus Lehtokumpuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05911725197158241178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2565467389318493488.post-63062972871385049222013-03-23T22:59:14.981-07:002013-03-23T22:59:14.981-07:00Hi Andreas.

I have been looking and eyeing drawings from that sequence over the last couple of years and auctions.

I...Hi there Andreas and happy 104th birthday Milt!<br /><br />I was wondering if you could shed some light on these drawings for me? In the sketches where parts of Medusa's arms or full arm hasn't been drawn is that arm simply remaining stationary?<br /><br />And also the drawing in which Medusa is firing the gun? The numbers down the side, are they to indicate the animation of the back and forth kicking of the gun as it fires? Staggering of drawings?<br /><br />Thanks,<br /><br />Liam.Liam Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18278352095188048419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2565467389318493488.post-4233650809064046122013-03-23T05:20:38.368-07:002013-03-23T05:20:38.368-07:00I remember we talked about Medusa and I mentioned ...I remember we talked about Medusa and I mentioned that she looked like a bag of potatoes on sticks.<br />You corrected me an said : "..a bag of MASHED potatoes"!<br />But what a wonderful bag of mashed potatoes she is!!!<br />Congratulations Milt!!Wil Raymakershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05730581245091349530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2565467389318493488.post-29532661323511048522013-03-23T04:19:26.399-07:002013-03-23T04:19:26.399-07:00Such intensity in gesture and acting!Such intensity in gesture and acting!Deacon Andrew Thomashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11809959734565636058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2565467389318493488.post-42838724988707823252013-03-22T23:40:18.388-07:002013-03-22T23:40:18.388-07:00Feast for the eyes!
