Last year’s Big Gig for me was making the animation backdrop for Fritidsresor’s Bamse show. It’s been on for a while now so I think it’s safe to post a sample:

I enjoyed the challenge of producing nearly twenty minutes of animation in approx. two months (!), something I would’ve never been able to do without learning Flash. I became quite good friends with Flash in the end. It’s definately a powerful animation tool.
So anyway, if you’re headed towards one of Fritidsresor’s Blue Village charter resorts this summer, be sure to check out the Bamse show, and especially its animated backdrop.
Happy holidays!
It’s Pling, the mouse from the recently released comic booklet TanimaL! He turned out much better than I expected actually. They said he’d be a “beanie bag”, so I pictured some sort of baggy unshapely thing, but this is actually quite like the cartoon. I always dreamed of having 3D merchandise versions of my characters. Maybe not mice. Maybe more kind of action figure characters. But anyhow, this is not a bad start. I hope Abigail – who made the original drawing – is as happy with Pling the Toy as I am. 🙂 
Here he is with the rest of the family: Mubarak, Dark Dude, The Thumb and Sir Edgar Alan Poe.
