Concept : Crows


While Brian works on the concept for the Scarcrow, I'm working on the Crows.





Here's the temporary design for the two Crows, who now have names, Clive and Dinky. as can be seen from the expressions on their faces, the tall one (Clive) is the smart one and the short one with the mallet (Dinky), is well... whimsical.

Concept: Mawkin

Well here's some concept work of the Scarecrow for our animation.


Scarecrow concepts by Brian. The character might change according to further concept work.

Kenneth's Aquilas

Hey guys and dolls, this is the blog for Mawkins Backfire.

For those of you wondering what Mawkins Backfire is, it is the name of an animated short that myself Brian Lindsey and my good cohort Joe McMahon are working on as part of our Animation course at Dundee Uni's art school, Duncan of Jordanstone. This blog will chart the progress of our project and we'll update it regularly with concept art and animation tests.

The short is based around a Scarecrow that attempts to protect his corn-field from the depredations of two crows, that make a mockery of him.

At the moment the project is still in the pre-production stage and the script is still going through some changes and revision.

So stay tuned and we'll be bringing you some concept art soon enough.
