    Loved your original series for modelling for animation from a few years back and was recently thinking about working through it again for practice and then i saw this pop up.
    I think I'll follow along to this one instead, be really cool to get an updated take on this considering how much you've probably learnt and improved over the last few years!!
    Very excited, thanks again for doing these!!

    This just means I need to practice my art more. I'd certainly like to bring my ideas to life in Blender. I think I do have a process down for how I build up my drawings (at least for the hero drawing). I start off traditional pencil and paper before scanning it and digitally inking and coloring the piece.
