Milkateer (pronounced Milk-a-tear) is here!
Milkateer - another fully animated series, this time by Sharp Image, has hit the TV channels now. I must say, this is a really good production!
I remember talking to my friend Sarfaraz about things like "Man, If Sharp Image comes up with a fully animated series, I think its gonna be much better than Commander Safeguard (made by Post Amazers) in terms of animation quality and overall look and feel".. and I think we were not wrong!
Here are some screen shots from the show that I took (download links to actual video files below):
The environments are really well made and the story line is also pretty good keeping in mind the commercial interests of TetraPak, the company who paid Sharp Image for creating this cool show. The animation is good too and so were the special effects.
The story is primarily about two kids: Fiza and Zain. Fiza is all-active, smart and positive while Zain, even after trying much, doesn't get up to the reasonable standards in different activities of life. Reason: Fiza takes TetraPak packaged milk while Zain takes 'Khulla Doodh' from the market.
