I just re-discovered these model sheets. The drawings and notes (with typos) were meant for my animation crew, animators as well as clean up artists. These sheets date back to July of 1996.
The hand positions were inspired by Milt Kahl. I just stylized the fingers a little.
Such a long time ago, but as they say...it seems like yesterday.
It's just so satisfying to see that our film Hercules seems to have grown in popularity over the years. There is a terrific stage show in Hamburg/Germany right now (soon to be in London as well), and more and more students tell me how much they enjoy watching the movie today.
