Sorry they're mostly in black and white, those were the pictures in the books. Great stuff though, I'm really looking forward to experimenting with the shapes and lines they used for our characters and environments :D

  1. Hi

    It would be great to see a storyboard at this stage. Something rough will do so that the discussion about shots can begin.

  2. No matter whether it is black & white or colored. The pictures are clear but the text part of the picture is illigible.
