Awesome artwork, and creepy, too.
I remember that episode - I liked it, and LOVE the Babar Nelvana series. ^^

That was scary when it showed the guy's eyes through the door.

I love this episode- though it doesn't rank as one of my favorites or even one I find noteable, it's not a bad one (I don't think there's really a "stinker" in Babar... maybe the Unsalted Sea Serpent, but I'm feeling generous today)

I love your use of the spotlight and shadowing to show Babar's isolation in the presence of the Phantom. It really highlights his terror.

And also, Babar + musicals = my life, so any combinations of the two make my head explode with joy.

That's not as bad as my mini tantrum when I missed the PotO episode of Wishbone that I had been waiting so long for.

Yeah . . . good time with random PotO.

I still want to see that!

I loved Wishbone when I was a child. I may have seen the PotO episode, but I barely remember it. Hopefully it's on YouTube somewhere. I beat myself up a few days ago for giving up my PotO Wishbone plush years ago when I was young and stupid.

I hadn't thought to look it up on youtube, until ou just mentioned it. *kicks-self*

Yeah, the closest I ever got to Phantom as a child was stealing my brother's CD.

XD very cute and funny! Good luck with the contest!!

...it has nothing to do with the comment itself... but yesterday I finally saw The Phantom musical in London, and damn it was even better than I thought, just plain way more than awesome!!! *________*
(Uhm, sorry for the random chatting )

SilverDrgnbane In reply to RecordRewind [2008-10-12 22:22:30 +0000 UTC]

No worries. ^^ You're so lucky to see it in London. I saw Les Mis while I was there, and if its awesomeness means anything I'm sure Phantom was even better.

RecordRewind In reply to SilverDrgnbane [2008-10-13 08:54:53 +0000 UTC]

I'd like to see Les Mis too... maybe next year I'll be able to travel to London again and do it, we'll see. But really, there are so many musicals there, I wish I could have stayed a month and gone to theatre every evening XD

Heh, I saw that when we were on vacation in July! When I heard 'hantom', it caught my attention, but then when I noticed that it said 'of the Music Hall', I just slowly shook my head. I was a little disapointed that he wasn't disfigured though. He really didn't need a mask, he was only old(of course, I'd wear a mask anyway). I was kind of freaking out my family, because I was sitting there quietly chanting,"Punjab 'im, punjab 'im, punjab 'im".

That is stinkin' amazing! I like how it's in your style, but you can still see the original character design in it... That's my biggest problem.

And BOY! You got that out FAST!

SilverDrgnbane In reply to Livie-Lightyear [2008-10-10 17:23:25 +0000 UTC]

I was actually trying to copy the cartoon, but I guess my own style leaked in by default.
That's the best advice I can give for adapting other designs to your style: just try to copy it verbatim; some of yourself will always come through.

Yeah... I drew this instead of doing my paper last night...
