Have you pre-ordered a set? It's not cheap at all (close to $1k USD). But still... cheaper than going to an animation school!

[masterchief]

I already have the book.... been reading it for years... cant justify purchase at that price.

regards,
William

No kidding!

I have seen people raving about this clip, but I don't get it.
Am I the only one that's irritated by this animation.
The way the women walk is completely contrived. The hips, the hands, the women look like amateur transvestites, not like real women. Especially the first one, the second one is horny, I have to admit.
And the swimmer shaking his head when he is still in the water. What's that? Is this made by the God of animation? That surely gives me hope.
I love Richard William's book, but I'm really disappointed by some of his animations.
Also, this clip shows that his ideas about animating on 1's are wrong. It all seems very watery to me(which has to do with the slow pace too).

O, and suddenly I get this book cover.
They are all gay and doing a clusterfuck.
Or is that my rotten mind?

That's a bit uncalled for.

I'm sorry. English is only my second language.
What does 'uncalled for' mean?

And Paul, about the clip, the link is all the way up on this page.

Sorry.
Can the administrator please remove me from this forum, because I'm very 'not required and unwanted'.
And I agree, my comments were very 'Not justified or deserved; unwarranted: uncalled-for rude'
(isn't rudeness always uncalled for? I mean, if it's called fo, is it still rudeness then? )
I', sorry, I'm Dutch, I can't help myself. It's the environment, the genes.

Please reject me.
I deserve such a treatment.

haha!!! no way!
your presence is priceless here!

and yes, the extreme proximity of these mixed characters is a bit "tendentious",
a "preliminary" walk before midnight revel !

... a treatment for me too, double-dose !

Yes, that's what I thought.
They are 'cruising'.
But where's the park?

(and what does double-dose mean?)

[ZigOtto]

(and what does double-dose mean?)

if you need one pill, I need two !
(double-dose = 2x 1 dose)

A bit rude.
