Working on a new animation test, going pretty well. I’ve been doing a lot more studying (hours per day) with animation/film over the past week. My main focus has been transitions, but as a whole I think this new one is an upgrade from the last. Hopefully should be done within a week or so if all goes to plan.

This animation below however is unrelated to what I said above, just thought it was a funny idea

Another update.

I made Riot’s early episode 1 attire. I based it off of his earlier designs/versions. Originally, I didn’t think the old design would ever appear again. But the plot of episode 1 presented the possibility so I decided to take advantage of it. Some liberties were taken to make the design work in my newer style. But as a whole I’m happy it’s back.

It has a left and right view. This figure also required I design the forearm muscles and hand which could change before animation starts.

Next up is Pneuma’s street attire, which I plan to start very soon.

2 posts in a row, this a special occasion.

Anyway, this isn’t an update post but rather a thank you post. I’m incredibly appreciative of all the compliments on the animation from yesterday. Did not expect it to get as much high praise as it did. I was originally iffy on even posting it to begin with, but I’m really happy I did.

While I still have a longs way to go with animation, this was a massive confidence booster. All the compliments on and off the site gave me a lot of inspiration for the next test I’m planning.

To everyone who liked the post, or left a comment on or off the site, thank you. I genuinely really appreciate it, and I’m incredibly grateful for all the help/advice I’ve gotten as a whole these past few years. This truly means a lot to me. Love you all

Next post should be back to the irregularly scheduled updates

I’ve been studying animation for the past 2-3 days. The animation below I made today over 5 hours and is me experimenting with some of the things I’ve learned. Some things I really like and want to continue using, like impact frames, while extra lines for details during zoom ins I’ll either rework or stop.

I think it’s my best animation so far, really like how I came out. Its taken a long time but I’m slowly grasping how to animate which is nice. If there’s any critiques or ideas on what I can improve I’d love to hear it.

Glad to see Humble Damien’s home country getting some recognition with the poll
