I love how expressive Don Rosa made the characters. It's something I want to improve on in my own work. So, I figured I'd grab my copy of the book and try to sketch some of Scrooge's poses for body language practice. Poor Scrooge. My skill at drawing Disney ducks is lacking.
The hands were always really interesting to me too. Even in the DuckTales cartoon, the hands were very expressive.
Aww look, happy Scrooge.

More like "Scroogebook."
I grew up watching Ducktales, and maintain it is one of the best animated series ever made (along such giants as TaleSpin). It's nice to see ol' McDuck revisited from time to time.
Hey Darc,
The sketches are great. Scrooge is easily recognized. You're too hard on yourself, girl.
Scrooge is also my favorite duck and is followed closely by Gizmo Duck.

Thanks. I just love how expressive the characters are. "TaleSpin" was awesome too. I loved the episodes when they focused on Baloo and Louie.
