Thanks. DM me if MrZ would like his art turned into a little toon (P.S. I am slow, no AI, do it all by hand)

I don't have any pics from "Brainscan," but this is from another XFX production a few years later, an abandoned production of "The Hulk" (I am in back, touching fingers with the big guy) flic.kr/p/mNmbvB

Eric Fiedler, Bob Newton and crew in Steve Johnson's XFX mechanical department and some of Kerry Gammill's designs for "Hulk" blown up to life-size from December 1997.

Thanks, Leah. Impact was a while ago; but Dodo Man is still a favorite project.
Look, I hate to bring this up, but this isn’t sca commercial ship, not a rescue ship. And I want talk about the bonus situation. Can we just talk about the bonus situation? 👽👾🛸
Few films have the power of this American cinema classic. #Redford #Hoffman #Holbrook #Goldman #Willis #Shire #Pakula
Randy Newman and Caleb Deschanel, ASC, knock the cover off the ball. Was just spinning that old vinyl. Terrific work from Barry Levinson and, of course, Redford as Roy Hobbs.
If a brave animator out there would be interested in resurrecting this weird little project with me, let me know #animation #debussy #weird
