CGI 3D Animated Short "Little Tombstone" by - ESMA | TheCGBros

[@hesleyt]

I'm watching nine years later and it is still a masterpiece. Masterpieces don't get old.

[@fardeen-k07]

True

[@nancyariel4110]

I am new to watching short, animated films and I am in awe on how much work goes into it. This one kept my attention from beginning to end...BRAVO!

[@Hallands.]

Soooo, as this self professed newbie, how would you know what amount of works went into it?

[@JohnJohnson-tv5fu]

Great spin on this, loved the Clint Eastwood and the touch of the " The Good , The Bad , and The Ugly." The fly was the Co star.

[@edhoughton2609]

Yes - and the fly in the gun barrel and the dripping water tank are references to "Once Upon a Time in the West." :)

[@teej783]

The fly and the water dripping from the tank were from "Once Upon a Time in the West".

[@StanleyKowalski.]

@@edhoughton2609 producers wanted Charles Bronson to star as The Good in " good bad ugly" but he was tied of with another project, instead they found Clint Eastwood, who played side character in TV cowboy serial Rawhide.

Eli Wallach was 98 when he died

Amazing. The color contrast and attention to details really stood out and left an unforgettable impression on me. Nice work.

Perfection in a short film. Good story, great animation, surprise at the end. Loved this film.

Great animated short. Amazing attention to detail & good twist to the story. I like the nods to some classic westerns as well.

[@keestuinman2627]

Not only do I find the artwork stunning, but the style of the short as well as the references are so very well done! Thanks for this piece of eye candy!!

[@VincentVelilla]

Ouille déjà 9 ans ... Bravo pour ce film on sent le talent Je suis fier d'être le premier ou un des premiers commentateurs français de ce film

[@kevtb874]

Love the little Eastwood mannerisms. Particularly lighting the match and chewing the cigar.

[@interestedlen8823]

How have I missed this so far... Excellent. Stunning graphics, brilliant twist.

[@cinemartin3530]

Damn it... you managed to cram all the flavor and charm of the wild West into a five - minute video ! It's just a masterful job. The visual style is impeccable. Literally everything here looks great and complements the atmosphere. Dusty and decrepit houses, dust everywhere, ugly wrinkled faces of the characters...just perfect. But besides that, you managed to put a beautiful message here, which left me delighted. It's not the bad or the good who win, in our rotten world, sneaky, cunning and hypocritical scum win. And unfortunately, it is. One of the best works I've ever seen. You should be proud of what you've done. 😃

[@TawniStCroix]

Nostalgic for me ala the 'Spaghetti Western' theme, but the true excellence was in the CGI animation. Supremely well executed and designed, a great visual experience.

[@rickmontre4525]

The fly in the barrel and the dripping water on the hat are reminiscent of Once Upon a Time in the West. This was a great short.

[@petercampi2840]

I get such a late 90s, early 2000s videogame vibe watching this. It's absolutely awesome.

[@KowboyUSA]

+Peter Campi I get a mid-1960's Sergio Leone vibe, but I'm old what do I know.

[@petercampi2840]

+John Ratko I was talking CGI-wise, not narrative. In the case of style and story, your point is irrefutable, but in the case of graphical representation, my statement still stands.

[@KowboyUSA]

Peter Campi Now that you've mentioned it, I do vaguely recall the games you were referring to. Just never played them myself.

[@miguelpereirasilva7662]

@@KowboyUSA he didnt say any games

[@wayneg2139]

Sergio Leone would have been proud, and probably had a good laugh. Very well Done.

[@Psalm-pr1io]

So many "Once Upon a Time in the West" references - great work!

[@elizabethgaspodnetich4322]

That was so well done! So dark but with a dash of justice to spice it up a bit! I loved the attention to details! You over did yourself! I loved it!

[@keithjohnson514]

Right on. I remember going to the drive in for Clint Eastwood movies. They were all badass.

[@sseg.369]
