Prod. 2138 - The Sword in the Stone  - Cover and Seq. .001 "Prelude"

It's been too long since I have been blogging on a daily basis - Christmas and work did not help - but now at least I have a new draft to show here.

Great to see you posting again. I remember liking "The Sword in the Stone" a lot when I saw it as a kid. Unfortunately, I wasn't too impressed with it in one of the later re-releases and almost disappointed when I saw it on DVD.

One thing your drafts sure help to do (besides getting to know animators' styles) is re-evaluate movies I have thought I knew everything about.

Thanks and a happy New Year!
