Rob 'n' Ron -Tumblehead

From the danish studio Tumblehead, this western animation has a noble glow of gentle comedy with these two wanted characters. Although the narrative is relatively simple the success in this animation is in the way visual imagery is used. I really like the combination of real sand in the dunes with the hand drawn animated characters. I think it's use of multimediums is really successful. I also really like how these characters are like modern disney characters, the fella with the moustache does remind me of Yosemite Sam (Looney Tunes). But rather than declassing it's originality I think it adds to the feeling of the animation and makes it more homely because we feel like we've already seen the characters and they've got a modern twist but they remain familiar.
