Hi!
So recently, I've managed to make the best quality of an obscure animation of popular Slovene characters. Those are Trickster (Zvitorepec), Thickhead (Trdonja) and Hungerly (Lakotnik).
Not much information about this media except for the fact that it was animated and created by cartoonist Miki Muster (1925-2018) also known as Slovene Disney.
It could be possible that he animated it around the 60s, since his first cartoon called Arrow (Puščica) was made in 1960, so this animation could be made somewhere in this time. And it could also be true, that it was produced by Viba Film, since Miki Muster produced his first animated works in there. But we're still not sure.
How I restored it is a long story...
At first, I found a Youtube video of an event, where Miki Muster won the Prešeren Award in 2015. But then, I noticed the old animation on the left side. I've never seen nor ever heard of it. I only knew, that he produced and animated three cartoons in Viba Film and made some animation in a German studio. So when I saw this, I was very surprised.
And then I decided to restore it and make it HD. So this was my first restoration of it. What I did first is that I took every single frame of animation and tried to trace over them as best as I could. Unfortunately, the footage is in bad quality and it's very cropped by the circle.
And thus, the first restoration was complete. Here's how it looks like:
I don't like it as much as now, but this is what I could do the best at that time. But then a month later, when I searched about Miki Muster again, I suddenly found videos on RTVSLO 365 about his death and there, I found a better quality of this animation.

Unfortunately, the first part (Trickster/Zvitorepec part) can't be seen in full, as the host is in front of it and as far as I know, there's no better footage than that. But after that, it can be seen in full.
So then I decided to restore it. Again. But this time, it wasn't as long as the 1st restoration, but it was puzzling at the first part. Trickster (Zvitorepec) part.
So yea, I did the same process as before. Took every frame and this time, instead of tracing them, I puzzled them and photoshopped them.
And thus, the second restoration was complete. This time in the best quality I could do for the old animation of Trickster, Thickhead and Hungerly. Also known in Slovene Zvitorepec, Trdonja and Lakotnik.
