Artist's Comments
Frank Thomas and Ollie Johnston were two of Disney’s greatest animators. I really wanted to pay tribute to them in my own way.
I looked at a lot of caricatures and tried my own hand at drawing them in this slightly cartoony and stylized way. Frank is actually a variation of my own observations and a rather famous caricature that Ward Kimbal drew. Ollie was a lot harder to draw for some reason, but thankfully inspiration struck when I was watching Peter Pan and Mr. Smee cocked his head to the side. At just the right angle he looks like Ollie! So my version of Ollie is actually a modified Mr. Smee! Lol Anyway, I love these two guys. They’re animation is amazing and still astounds me to this day. If you get a chance, try to find the documentary “Frank and Ollie.” |

GREAT.
I'll have to look into these people, they sound interesting. I'll be the first to admit I'd love to know more than I do.

I saw more Tax Avery, Looney Toon cartoons in my youth than Disney, so I'll have to try to find some of those cartoons. I find it REALLY hard to get into "modern" Mickey adventures for the most part.

Heck, I miss the early 90s with some of its cartoons. Brief period of good cartoons, namely my favorite, the Timm Batman. Makes sense considering it was inspired by the Fleischer Superman shorts.

WHOA random thought---
Don't they look like the two guys at the end of Incredibles who say, "No School like the old school,"? Do you think maybe that the animators did that on purpose?
