Brake Check Drawing Original Herculoids Cel Animation
The Herculoids battled to defend their planet from menaces on * Amzot/Quasar and from outer space. All of the Herculoids displayed * Human-level intelligence - employing precision teamwork and complex * tactics - as well as emotions, and Zandor and Tara both displayed a * working knowledge of complex alien technologies as well as the ability * to pilot interstellar spacecraft—but essentially, Zandor, Tara, Dorno, * and the Herculoids were fighting to keep Amzot/Quasar a technology-free, * primitive planet. This is frther indicated by the pseudo-barbarian * outfits of Zandor, Tara, and Dorno and the fact that technology was used * mainly by the various villains, but rarely if ever by the heroes. * Although the "speech" of their companions was limited and repetitive, * Zandor, Tara and Dorno demonstrated that Gloop and Gleep, at least, had a * comprehensive mode of communication, and that they could at least * understand and interpret this language. * * **The cel and drawing are at * least 35 years old. * * Wow there Tundro, time to put on those breaks... * * * * Original Animation and Drawing * Original "rough" animation drawing, in black pencil with the notations in black. * Overall Size of Drawing:  10 1/2" x 12 1/2" * * Overall Size of the Cel: 10 1/2" x 12 1/2" * * Overall condition: Cel- Very good; paint fade and residue to cel & Drawing- Excellent * This is * an original hand-painted cel used in the production of an * episode of "Herculoids." Each cel represents a slight change in position * of the characters. When individually photographed and projected * in rapid succession, the images appear to move. To create * production cels, the original animator's drawing is transferred onto an * acetate cel (by hand-inking and/or photo copying). The cel is then * hand-painted on the reverse side. * * * * The drawing and cel are ready to be matted and * framed.  The notations are located at the bottom of both. * *
