This week in AWN's Forums, a member wants to know what's the term for when a cel of animation is mispainted? For example, Daffy's hands are yellow instead of black for a frame of animation.

A member is looking for royalty-free vehicle models for Maya; anyone know where to find a site online that sells them? Anyone know how to pitch a show idea in Australia? A member has an idea.
