HAHAHA. I don't know why, but it the style made me laugh. 'tis funny, I say.

That's really cool, Paul. I like the style...realistically modeled, yet cartoony animation. :applause:

Is the fire inside the stove actual comped footage? If not, that's a damn fine use of HVs...:eek: Either way, it's a very nice little piece.

Thanks for the comments Mechis, Triple G and Milqman.

Triple G. Fire is real footage composited within Lightwave.

Glad you all liked it.

What was this a part of? Is there any more? I'm hoping that you will take it further!

It's for a children's story website. I've completed a series of simple 2D animations for the site and I wanted to do something a little different for this new category.
This animation will loop on screen hence I needed to keep it down to around 4 secs to accommodate dial up users.

Wow, ..Kretin, BladeFX and everyone. Thanks for the accolades.
I spent a lot of time on this as I wanted to get it right.
It seems the effort was worth it.

Hi Paul,

Just thought I'd throw my congrats in as well. The style and animation are simply fantastic! :applause: It has a strong Nick Park / Wallace & Grommit feel. :)

Great work!
