The front carries the clean production linework, while the reverse preserves extensive coloured-pencil work. When viewed over a light table, the reverse colouring glows through the sheet and creates an almost finished-image effect, making the drawing especially striking in person.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe piece is particularly interesting for collectors because it shows two stages of the animation process on a single sheet: precise clean linework on one side and the colour\/planning information on the reverse. It is therefore both an original production-used drawing and a revealing working document from the film’s animation process.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCharacter and design context:\u003c\/strong\u003e Charlotte is one of the central characters of \u003cem\u003eBloodlust\u003c\/em\u003e, the human woman whose relationship with Meier Link drives the film’s story.
