Milo James Thatch from Disney's "Atlantis: The Lost Empire"


Atlantis wasn't a typical Disney movie and it didn't do well in the box-office worldwide. But it had a brilliant score - composed by James Newton Howard (who is probably the BEST most ignored composer in Hollywood! He deserved at least an academy award nomination for almost everything he's done so far!) it also had one of the most unique styles of animation and design! As such, it introduced us to a very non-typical Disney characters too - Milo was the leader of the category!

Milo is not all that 'tall-dark-handsome' type of hero. He's older then most Disney Heroes, geeky, skinny, N.E.R.D! I could relate to his passion for preserving the ''Atlantian cloture'' as a theme in the movie and as a message the creative team sent out to the views through it! It seemed to me that towards the end of the film, while we see that side of Milo, he also becomes more attractive, more well rounded in his design too, and his animation all of sudden seem to reach it's highest point.

Milo's design gave me an extra challenge as I don't really find the skinny look to be attractive... so I posed him a little bit to the side to take advantage of the full width of the belly plus heaving some more view on the side of his body, this way he's not appearing as skinny as he is.



- side note -
I wish all who celebrates right now, an enchanted Christmas, happy holydays and a happy, wonderful and fulfilling new year!!! :heart: :hug:
I don't celebrate Christmas myself, but I love this holiday spirit and mood!
