Trigun Fanart

2012-02-02T08:54:00.000-08:00

I don't usually do fan art but after re-watching the Trigun anime I was inspired to draw Nicholas D. Wolfwood. It was nice to draw an existing character because I didn't have to think about design.

Character belongs to Yasuhiro Nightow and is based on the design from Trigun by Madhouse Studios.

This was a challenge to animate a turnaround of a character we created. I enjoyed it, it was a bit challenging but I thiink it turned out well. I will definitely be animating more turnarounds in the future. It definitely made me think more of the underlying anatomy of the character.
