The Chinese New Year of the Horse begins on 31st January 2014. If your age within this year is divisible by 12 then you were born in the year of the Horse.

Shakespeare was born in 1564 which, inconveniently, was the year of the Rat. Click the image to see his horse instead!

Painted in Manga Studio, Animated in Anime studio and built in Construct 2 which seems to be my post Flash work Flow. It’s not without its challenges ( I’m looking at you HTML5 audio ) But it feels good to escape the tyranny of the vector.

Kung Hei Fat Choi !

PS. Chinese New Year celebrations go on for 2 weeks which gives you plenty of time to send this card from www.squeakycards.com
