If it makes you feel better, Helm, I feel that anime is a cancer on the art world.

There's good anime; it exists. I love Ghibli fiilms, but that's because it's quality is so far above and beyond typical anime, it's in a class all it's own. It's almost like comparing an episode of Scooby Doo with, say, Disney's Jungle Book. Oh man... and BAD anime art? I can't think of anything more painful to look at. Don't get me wrong; I watch some anime series. Hell, I have a shelf on my bookshelf dedicated to the stuff. Some of the stories are great, but the art is always laughably bad.

Seriously, what's worse than a bad/generic anime? Anime imitators. (See TOTALLY SPIES for a lesson in ultimate suffering.) If you really want to see the effect anime has had on the art world, visit DeviantArt sometime.
If only the artform wasn't so formulaic, maybe then there'd be less immitating.

On a similar note, I suggest checking out www.animationpodcast.com.  If you're interested in traditional animation/3D-animation, it's a great source of inspiration. It is for me, at least.

I'm also fairly certain that they've been trying to set up an interview with John K. for a while now.

Good stuff. Love the design.



Anyone else submit something?

I'm sorry, but it NEEDED to be animated.

I love the idea of animating a sinister laugh, but I'm not a fan of the restriction(s). Laughs are full of subtle movements, and these can't be conveyed through just a silhouette alone.

I have to say that animation challenges should be a normal occurance; It's an incredibly important facet of the pixel art medium.

Kudos for the idea. I'll participate.

Maybe block smileys with an excessive amount of colors?

Feh.  Terrible design, but I REALLY wanted to animate something. I have all night to play with it, I guess.

[EDIT] He needs eyes--- and lots of other stuff.

My favs so far have to be Lawrence's set and the upper left smiley from Xion's latest set. Reminds me of NGPC art.
