I remember seeing their videos mimicking Rankin/Bass and (at least initially) did not believe that they were done in Blender. They looked so much like the actual stop motion that it just didn't seem right.

After a minute or two I would occasionally find something that looked "CG-ish", but I wouldn't have found anything if I weren't looking.

It's amazing how good Blender has gotten.

His Patreon sometimes includes behind the scenes posts or clips that make it even more fascinating. He really does hand-animate a lot of pieces as if they were real objects in order to get that effect. Fun state of mind to get into.
