Goofy/Pluto models

- I’ve recently posted some discussions about Mickey and Donald which were part of the extrawork courses that the Disney studio held in the Thirties. Go here to see Mickey, go here to see Donald.

Here’s the section on the “Goof” which also includes a couple of Pluto models.
Art Babbitt is the lecturer.

Since there were so few pages to the above document, I thought I’d add the pages of the How to Draw Pluto book which was part of the Disney Animation Kit you once could buy from the Art Corner at Disneyland. It included books on How to Draw Mickey, Donald, Goofy and Pluto as well as a book on Tips in Animation.

Here’s Pluto:

    I wonder how many of today’s artists put this much thought into their characters?

    Great stuff, as always, Michael. Any chance of seeing the rest of the model sheets from the Tips on Animation book?

    Did anyone read this? There’s a bit that was censored when it was reprinted in Illusion of Life.
