Ringing Bell is one of those "children's shows" in the vein of Watership Down that's just...really dark for a cartoon. And while Watership Down can have the excuse of not being explicitly made for kids, Ringing Bell was obviously devised as a kids show. The first half is a bunch of adorable Osamu Tezuka-esque lamb prancing about until it nosedives right into darkness the edge territory.
Either way, I love it and I felt like messing about with a new brush by recreating one of the scenes.
