Building sets for stop motion

 Got to use my dad's workshop in Ohio over the Holidays, he said he had all this flat wood left over from the crate of his new log splitter. I needed material, so...

Just wood, glue, knives and saws... Got to work to beat those Ohio winter blues.

Main set layout...

Finished on New Years Day 2014.

The sad part was cutting it up to mail back to L.A.

Tunnel section cut and laid out...

Rough assembly, got to paint and add texture next.

Will Vinton - father of Claymation

Hello, haven't posted here in a long time. It's been a busy winter and spring, so work on my thesis got sidetracked.

To get my juices flowing again, I needed to get something about stop motion back on my radar. Low and behold, the story of Will Vinton popped up.
