Ben Buzzard

 


This guy only appeared once. That's it. How the heck does this character not get more recognition? Well since I'm talking about him, maybe it might he might get the credit he deserves.



Beaky Buzzard is the funniest buzzard for sure but I would say the best buzzard design is Ben in The Flying Jalopy (1943). 



At the start, his facial detail is impressive and badass. 



The plot is simple. Donald is willing to pay money to fly an airplane but gets into a lot of challenges while flying. Ben Buzzard wants Donald to cause an accident but Donald is at his best focusing, good for him.



While Donald flies his plane, Ben gets the best rage moments in this cartoon.







This is a funny animated frame. 



I know these are not exactly in order, but I can't blame it, these are some expressive animated frames when they start to fall off and the plane is about to get destroyed.



This short film while it's not a masterpiece, I mean I cannot say it is because of the animation, but as is the animation got me hooked, Ben Buzzard is an overlooked character and could've been a fun character if he had more apperances.


As is I think a character like this, is what I wanted my animated characters to look like. 



I mean if you read alot of my posts on this blog, you can tell I love the acting of Bob Clampett's cartoons.




Next post I'll talk more on Artmania stuff!
