Hello everyone!  
@Andy: How has digital changed the animation process over the years for the good and for the bad in your opinion?  Thanks!
Tim J

Hello everyone!  Misspelled my name a minute ago, lol.

CG has been good in many ways, but is a double edged sword. I miss the days of 2d animation. I love the amount of drawing that we used to do.
4:36
Hi TimJ!
Ron Lim
4:37
I hate that everyone has abandoned 2-D except the Song of the Sea guys. That stuff is gorgeous.

Andy - I assume with all of those animation artists around at work, you must get opportunities at great pieces of art… right? Don’t destroy this illusion that I have 😇
Andy Beall
4:37
I am lucky in that way. We will do drawings for each other every so often. And at Pixar we do charity auctions to help raise funds for things we believe in. I've been lucky to get some great art from friends.

So Andy, what are your top choices for character commissions for yourself and for other artists to draw?
Andy Beall
4:38
I have a list that I've been building over time of characters that I like. Some depends on the artist and what they are good at drawing. I like Batman, Daredevil, Magik and Silver Surfer a lot!

@Andy, I mentioned it on your CAF but huge congrats on the Silver Surfer Black page! Such a great page!
Ron Lim

@Andy, I'm in advertising. I worked with Pixar on one of their last commercials, guessing before your time there.

Glad to see there's multiple Snoopy pieces available!
Andy Beall

Thanks, @Victor! Your collection is a favorite of mine. Always look forward to your posts!

@Victor I'm assuming that Bertram berserk piece is yours?
Reba

@Andy B, do you have many commissions on order or sticking more to published pages for the collection? I love getting both!
Andy Beall
4:41
I love published stuff first and foremost. I am not a big fan of risk, so it took me a long time to get comfortable with commissions. But as i've gotten better with it, I've loosened up my sentiments towards it. I have a few commissions I'm waiting on now.
VictorB.

@JasonK, I’m hoping so much that it is! I fell in love with it already lol!
Reba

Can't wait to see them

Ron Lim

@Andy, do you have a portfolio site of your own work?
Andy Beall
4:44
Hey @Ron! I'll shoot you a mail about your time working with Pixar. Would love to hear about it. I don't have a website. I'm pretty shy about showing anything, so this is new to me with Felix. I do have an instagram account with some work on it.
Ron Lim
4:44
Sounds good @Andy
Andy Beall
4:44
OMG! That Bertram art is amazing!
Pat L

Wow nice

Off topic, can we make that Nexus animated adaptation happen finally? That was the most bittersweet part of the podcast conversation. Rude's a legend.
Felix Lu
4:45
@Mark V...I would so love to see it...just not sure where the money would come from...
Casey A
4:45
Any particular commissions you're looking forward to, Andy?
Andy Beall
4:45
I have a commission about to happen with Gerardo Zaffino. I can't wait for that. And I want to get a few more from Felix's crew when their lists open up.
@MarkV, I'd love to see an animated Nexus, for real!

I really hope Kentaro Miura left some notes for the direction of Berserk down the road.  Such a sad loss.  It makes me hope that Oda sticks around with us to finish One Piece.
