Inches turn into feet...
For the few of you out there following along with me on my way to make this animated short I’ve been working on, thanks for sticking around. I’ve been very slow on documenting the process due to the inconsistent work time and poor schedule. I never thought it would be this tough. Regardless, I’ve been pumping away in wee hours of the night. I’m going to give you another...

thatdorkyguy asked: Did you have a favorite character from the old Thundercats show? Are the still your favorite or did you find a new one in the course of re-imagining them?
jasonamous asked: I don't use facebook, but I heard about your car and some guy giving ya trouble for no good reason. I love the work that you and the crew has put into ThunderCats, and I hope even a few kind words can change how rough it's been for you for awhile.

Right now I’ve got some of the characters and monsters fleshed out and am working on building the main sets and vehicles in 3-D (Sketchup to be precise).

thatdorkyguy asked: Dan you are, as they say, the man! Lovin' the art, is there anything you can give us a preview of that won't spoil things too badly and/or get you fired?
balgus82 asked: Speaking of toys; when designing characters for the show do you have to consider how they'd translate to the toys? We all know Tcats is a very toy centric property and I was wondering if it affected the design much or if you just did what you needed for the show and they pick and choose which toys to make from what you already have.
staroutlaw asked: Hey Dan, did you do the artwork that's featured on the packaging of the new ThunderCats toys? They look cool and I've been looking everywhere for clean pics of each character.
