Robin Latkovich's Steam Pug

I recently found this illustration from Robin Latkovich. The fact that I am already partial to anything pug related made me love it all the more! I decided to use it as an opportunity to finally start delving in puppet rigging and animation in After Effects.

I'm excited to keep barreling ahead and learn more.
EDIT: Fixed the aliasing issues (Realized I was scaling down a full HD flv into flash, so I just exported the flv at 720. Duh.)
