Jamed and the Giant Peach Reanimated

James and the Giant Peach but mostly Centispider/Spiderpede related doodles. They're my childhood otp which is why I'm allowed to make fun of their forced dynamic and NOT YOU.

Also included this soft-AU thing about if Centipede lost some of his arms in his fight with the skeletons. In a modern animated movie, I feel like that would happen for the sake of drama and also it'd make animating Centipede easier for the rest of the feature. Winwin!

Hopperpede intensifies (wiff angst).

weavers are nocturnal, and are extremely sensitive to light

weavers have eight eyes. maybe she keeps four of them closed during the day because it’s too bright? (then again, it’s a child’s film so who cares if the puppet is anatomically accurate)

weavers only see in blue and green. this is to help them better differentiate between objects at nighttime

right now, I actually can’t say for sure what my favourite scene across all of JATGP is, so I went with what I know is my favourite one from the musical (and a strong contender for my fav scene in general): the Reprise of “On Your Way Home” :D

I may or may not turn this into a refined coloured art piece at some point, so in the case that I don’t (highly likely), here ya go

(the three Centipedes in the first box are the counterparts from the book, film and musical [I’m sure you can tell which is which] and “Welcome Home” is the final song of the musical [excluding Curtain Call])

I'm trying to get a series of animators/animatic artists together to reanimate the "That's the Life for Me!" scene from James and the Giant Peach. If you're interested, please join!

They can be considered attractive in some way to you (but often not conventionally

They are someone/thing that you would not expect to be found attractive
