I remember Amy! I miss my Amiga 1000.

Legendary furry media right here, a historical article

Yeah! Very much so.

Ah Eric Schwartz. Never read his comics, but saw his old animations and they're so impressive for their time. My favorites were the Flip the Frog ones.

It's amazing to think this was the animation for the commodore.

Really do appreciate when games still look as good the day it came out

This was animated on an Amiga??

sharkabytes.bsky.social•11 days ago

Yeah! The Amiga can be an animation powerhouse, and this is just an earlier and rougher example of his work.

Now I wonder how popular the Amiga was among early digital animation. I'm more thinking more assist use for like digipaint rather than full on cg animation.

Highly recommend you look up his work. Great stuff

I didn't know who Eric W. Schwartz so I googled it and... Goddamn, I need every comic he's ever made now 😳
