Johannes Stawowy‘s personal archives of Bob De Moor‘s visit to Mülheim, Germany back in 1986 keep on revealing their secrets. Today we received some further material which Bob De Moor drew during the Q&A session in March 1986. As you might remember, In this article we showed you a photograph of Bob De Moor explaining how he worked on the “Lake of Sharks” animation film.

Today we present you a frontal shot of said drawing. We have enhanced the colors a bit for clarity because the combination of cheap paper, markers and some 29 years didn’t exactly improve the quality. The drawing shows 3 sequences in which Bob De Moor explained how the animators had to work in order to bring Tintin to live for the “Lake of Sharks” animation film. Although graphically this is quite hasty work, the intention here was to instruct and not to create a good drawing of course.

Tomorrow we’ll show you 2 more drawings, which unfortunately also suffered from the time and also some water damage. Nevertheless, you’ll be able to meet Tintin, Snowy and Thomson and Thompson
