Thank you for watching ‘Welcome to Kwak Studios!’ I made the mistake to start the 30 day countdown before finishing this short film, so August was INCREDIBLY hectic 😭 but I wanted it done for 1st September because that’s when I started posting silly little Kwak shorts :)

I’ll be posting more duck content soon. For now though we have a big project coming this weekend! So look out for that ;) and if you somehow missed our debut film, the film is pinned on the studio’s page/on our YouTube 🦆💥

Lots of sketching, animating, inspiring covnersations, astonishing views of Turkish nature, delicius food and friendly cats. Definitely wanna come back again. Highly recommended to my artistic friends.
