Up where they walk...

Here are some new stuffs... This is still this little merman but I finally drew another background. I loved the challenge that layout represented : on one hand, we have to see the bottom of the ocean and on the other hand, we can see the top of it. And the camera is doing the trick.

This huge man statue reminds me as well a cover I made for one of my webcomics Merman. Here is another version of the little merman and his Prince statue just like the Andersen's fairy tale. 

The colored version is coming soon. To be continued...

Ready to stand

I always loved this scene from the Disney's Little Mermaid. The animation is amazing and the lyrics are filled with hope and promisses for this young Ariel. So I decided to create my own "ready to stand" with an all new little merman character.

At first, it took place in an underwater cavern just like the Disney movie but I would like to change it for a new background. Also I think it is a good exercice because of the motion of the camera, we are able to see the bottom and the top of the scene in an unique layout.

Just keep swimming

Even if all the seaweeds are missing, this animation is the first one completly cleaned and finished since the end of my animated short film Humaine. 

I can't help drawing and animating mermaids. I just love their way to move and swim. I spent a lot of time coloring and redrawing all my sketches and all this work is like a reward for me when I can see this very short animated sequence finally all done and clean.

Long live the Princess

Except mermaids, my Princess of Lyon, named Gaëlle, became my real new obsession for more than a year now. I just couldn't help drawing her all the time, trying to find her personality through some sketches, animations and illustrations. I cut her hair, drew her clothes, thought about her life and story... I have some ideas about what is going to happen to her and it is only the beginning of a long story... To be continued !

Beneath the surface

The Princess of Lyon on one side, I have also a lot of other projects. Including some merfolks indeed... But it's always a pleasure for me to draw sea backgrounds, rocks, seaweeds... Here an all new mermaid animation. To be continued...

Another fan art of The Little Mermaid...

I am not a big fan of the Little Mermaid sequel but a few days ago, I was listening to the French musical Le Roi Soleil and, I don't know why, I couldn't help thinking about Ariel's life after she became human...

Merman

I know what you are going to say... A mermaid ? AGAIN ?! Yes, but this time this is a merMAN and, as you know, I can't help drawing mermaids because I'm completely crazy in love with them ! Anyway... Here is the cover of the soon-to-be web comic of CaAlYoKa, based on famous fairy tales.

Young and Sweet Only Seventeen *WIP*

This animated work in progress of my Princess is actually a better version of one of my animations from my short film Humaine. To be honest, some of the animations in my film are definitively not that good and because I like the idea of doing something better, I decided to redo it with my Princess character.

I loved the fact that my mermaid having legs used them for dancing, jumping. But this animation was too quick and has a serious lack of images to make something nice.

Here is the linetest version of this new animation. A colored and clean version will follow.
