Jean Blanchard’s Bugs Bunny model sheet for the McKimson Unit, 1947. Bob McKimson had drawn the definitive Bugs model in 1943 and then Blanchard designed this strikingly different version of the character a few years later. The range of expressions and attitudes shown here in her model sheet only begin to suggest the unbelievable range of animated “acting” achieved in Bob’s cartoons throughout the 1940s and how the great characters like Bugs developed different nuances as the decade progressed. McKimson was a great, underrated animator. -- source link
