That was a sweet little story backed by really nice style. Not that it's a problem, but the style of the world almost mandated ill fates. Like, if you see Richard Gere in a cozy sweater, people are going to fall in love before the end of the story. If you see sketchy cross-hatching, death is around the corner.

Thanks for posting. I look forward to future works.

Oh yeah definitely. Whenever you see sketch type style and muted tones bad tend to happen. I think cause it takes a madman to crosshatch so much! Damn my hand hurt after this video. I actually produced this one in only 2 weeks, because I was doing it as a favor for a friend.

Thank you caroline! Wait til you see my next video (releasing next week)... it's my Halloween spook out! After that I think I'll make a more light hearted video (if I can find the right song that is) :D

there was a kid's animated series on UK TV in the 70s called Joe. He lived in a transport cafe, very sweet and similar animation style
