Hey all,

Four new vigs:

Recreation of the Buster Keaton stunt. Also, my first animated gif!

Hope you enjoy.

Hi, Bruce.

Nice work. Love the difference in facial expressions between the people with money-in-hand, waiting to get their fix and the one guy who’s been served.

And it seems like such an obvious detail, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen the old small window shutters used as the swinging saloon doors on the Old West before. Good call.

Hey Brendan,

Thanks for the kind words. You’re actually the first person to mention the face choices, which I thought was key to the whole scene.

Thanks. I can’t say for sure that it’s original at all. I’ve probably seen someone do something similar in the past. Can’t point to a specific inspiration, though.
