Hennie Blaauw’s Rambo

Longtime SZONEr, Hennie Blaauw checked in with the art above and this message:

Hi there! Hope you’re well. Congrats on an awesome job with the Rocky Blog!

I just finished a big animation project and I’ll have some free time soon, so I’m planning on animating a rambo clip / trailer or something. I figure, we might as well get the Rambo IV buzz going so long 🙂

So I’ve attatched my first rough concept drawing, let me know what you think. I’ll do an animation test soon and show you.

Cool man, keep doing what you’re doing! Hope you have enough energy for the Rambo Blog too….I think they’ll get you onto that one soon…hahahaha

Cheers

Hennie

Hennie did a great job of capturing Sly’s Rambo.  – Craig

In case you missed it, this week was “Philly Loves Rocky Week!” Sylvester Stallone was the guest of honor, the Rocky statue went home, and there were a ton of events honoring Sly and Rocky. Check out the StalloneZone this weekend for full details!
