Tin Toy
/Fans of early CGI character work should recognize this. Way back when Pixar was a new company and pushing hard to break new ground in computer generated imagery and legitimizing CGI as a story telling tool, they produced shorts. Early works like Andre and Wally B and Luxo Jr showed promise and hints of a world to come, but Tin Toy was really the watershed moment. Billy the baby still sort of creeps me out, but Tinny is as charming as ever, especially when built in bricks. Nice work Swan Dutchman!
Today we are joined by Katie Walker who shares the concept of a “Flash MOC” and the evolution of one of her stunning backlit LEGO cheese slope mosaics.
