Leonardo's Birthday


Today is da Vinci's 554th birthday and the short "Leonardo" has officially completed rough animation. Good ole' Herriman came in with scene 5/3 - the last one. I have to pinch myself that this day has finally arrived. The film isn't done but it has just passed THE biggest hurdle and now everything has just got a whole lot easier.

Some images from the last scene. Leo is fighting the wind, while he floats on the Arno River. Water effects haven't been done yet and the coloring is from the down shooter.
