DIY Animation Cel. Roger Rabbit and Baby Herman. Vintage cel animation.

Hello and welcome.
In this video I'll show you how I made this Roger Rabbit animation cel from scratch. It's an odd shape, since the background was used as a panning shot, and it's size made it a bit awkward to work with. I used a different technique than my previous cels to create the line work. I normally draw that on by hand with a technical pen, but this time I decided to try something new. First I tried screen printing the line work on the glass, but I couldn't find an ink that worked well. I ended up using a vinyl cutter to cut an airbrush stencil. This works surprisingly well and will probably be how I do all my cels going forward.
Thanks for watching.

For small pieces, you can simply xerox a model on cell and paint it from the back. Incredible art as always, this cell really match the original look. Bravo !

We're you in the SpongeBob documentary?

[@RichardThompsonCA]

No, I've never worked in animation, making these cels is just a hobby for me.
