The Maquettes of Atlantis
A Maquette is a hand-crafted 3D model that animators use and reference when animating a character. Several Maquettes were created for Disney's Atlantis: The Lost Empire that help bring consistency, along with model sheets, among the drawings of the same character by different animators.
