Animate Cartoon Character - Anthro Kangaroo Girl - General themes and ideas.

  Going over the design process form idea to concept art and the drafting and production of animations. Here I am briefly going through the grading structure I was examined on during my studies at Uni: Bottom to Top of the page. In these times of study I found that documenting my ideas and aspirations in a blog was the most productive way of Researching, Experimenting and Developing ideas.

Shelagh travels to the open expanses of the desert to a training ground with encampments and facility's, built to refine her experience into either combative or free running capabilities, she must make a decision on the path to take. Shelagh's entire sporting career is trust funded by a distant dragon contact that she has made called Kiki Shanji, without his aid, she wouldn't be able to afford the basics in this increasingly competitive district.
