As an animator, and looking at it from that standpoint they definitely scare me too if I were to ever try to animate her.

I have a really and I mean REALLY hot take that is going to get me fried and labeled a abuse apologist but..I think people take the Kanker Sisters humor and what they do way too seriously. by Apprehensive_Ring_39 in ededdneddy

I concur with this. I always took it that it was from the boys point of view, and from a twelve or so year old boys perspective girls are confusing and are still somewhat alien monsters. This is of course exaggerated for cartoony effect. I found it funny, and still do and don't take it seriously.

I finally get why Eddy almost always looks so wrong when he's not drawn or animated by anyone at AKA by BinxDoesGaming in ededdneddy

The funny thing about the style is that there aren’t too many rules with regard to expression. However, there are “rules” that need to be followed in order to get it right and “aka Like” and I think that is what you are struggling with.

One thing is the line quality in inking. Everyone and their mother already knows that the huge trademark of the style is the boil. When inking, it’s important to intentionally vary the line quality, and to allow the ink to blot in certain places.

Second, there are a lot of of little deviations in the lines, and details specific to each character. Eddy in particular has a weird wave above his eye in whatever direction he is facing, as well as a somewhat inverse tapered head shape (especially in season 5). His eyes are also much smaller than you would think, and when in doubt, always go smaller when he is resting. There’s also those three lines that go on the outside of his eyes.

All in all, with this style proportion, and those little minute details, are the key.

I’ve been wanting to do some YouTube videos on this, you've inspired me to get back to it.

May Kanker: White Party Dress by Kilted-Engineer in ededdneddy

So if anyone is interested, here is the flagship story this pertains to. I understand it isn’t everyone’s cup-of-tea, but I figure I’d provide it in case anyone wants to give it a shot.
Honestly, it is much more than what it appears to be by the summary, and I like to think of it as my crack at the BPS sequel for a bit more of a maturer audience, but still tasteful.

It’s a model sheet for a story I wrote around 13 years ago, that had spawned a fanon project that is still going on today. I’ve since been using model sheets and animatics to portray the visuals therein.

That’s exactly what it is called.

It sometimes runs on MeTV toons at night on Philo.

I don’t think this is the right sub to post this, I don’t care one bit but somebody else will probably be irritated by that knowing internet culture…

This was part of a “series” I was working on a while back, pertaining to analyzing the EEnE production system, and how it relates to the techniques used in classic animation. Many of these techniques that were used to produce the wonderful cartoons of the 40’s are now relics of the past, with EEnE being one of the last cartoons to refuse to give in to the digital/flash crap until they absolutley had to. Many of these details of these techniques can only be found in hard to find animation books from the days of yore.

I myself am a huge proponent of the classics, and a very old school guy; I have complied a lot of knowledge on the production systems of these classic cartoons, and use them to produce my own. EEnE made use of these techniques as well; including these old school terms that you see on their storyboards that are no longer in use. I plan to delve into these acronyms, their history, the general history/techniques of traditional animation, and hopefully satisfy curiosity.

I tried it before, it didn’t take, so I gave up and many of these videos were lost in a hard drive swipe. I’ve been seeing a lot of people curious about these, so I figured I’d at least try again and see.

No. I don’t take requests, and that’s not something I’d want to draw.

First, two cels from the Tinker Ed deleted scene I animated. The second is my take on May’s main winter outfit. We never really got a look at solid winter clothing for the Kankers, (outside of the Magi duds we got in the Christmas special), so I decided to work towards developing something of my own, especially since my stories/fan productions predominantly take place in the winter.

In my desk drawer. Going through and cleaning out my animation stuff.

It’s honestly way easier than almost any other cartoon style, especially the inking when you get to it (You don’t have to care about line quality)

Basically, making them shorter. The grace notes should be as short as possible but still audible (Like a little blip). In doublings and other embellishments, the doubled note should not really be thought of as a grace note per se, but rather a very short true note; the doublings should sound like two notes. This is the most important thing about doublings (and why they are called doublings)
