This is purely to look at how the animators played with expressions in this scene, and this is some of my favorite linework for Mozenrath. all very fluid, many frames per second, LOTS of facial expressions, most all in a highly consistent style. The first picture is how it looks on the English episode. That’s what I had to work with. I had to touch up the Russian caps a little still, but I could still see his face in the original shots.

I just love this entire exchange. From the split decision to announce there was never a beard, to Jasmine’s seeming assumption that all men call each other “Man” and pretty much nothing else when they’re being casual.

(Also a brief note: the formatting for the photosets looks weird on the blog’s main layout. It looks like only the first image is there, but if you click on it you can actually scroll through them.)
