This my part of a collaboration piece for the spyro based fan group convexity studios. Check the link above for the full thing!
I thought doing this style of thing would give you guys a chance to get involved- the idea being that we can make videos quicker and more regularly, so it's more fun for everyone :)
Cynder's voice was done by my good friend Taylor, as always :D

Sorry this took a while. I've been ill pretty much all of this time, and I also lost someone very close to me too, killing my motivation to work on this. I hope this little snippet is enough to tide everybody over until completion, though! Full video will be roughly 3 minutes long when finished!

Started doing this as a request from a friend (Tsuriadragon) to get myself into the swing of making videos again. Lip syncing is fun :)
Also, Cynder.exe stops working at 0:18, lol... will finish the rest "soon!"

Anyway, we at convexity studios found someone that wanted to try singing for Cynder, so here's a little animation for her audition I made in a couple of hours. (Ignore the tounge, I forgot to animate that...)

If I remember right the comment was worded something like "Tell Spyro you love him!", or words to that effect. Sounded cute so I chose it :3

Hello! Sorry it took so long to make, I've been having a break from making videos for a while, but I'm back now :)
Originally we wanted to make huge response videos with 10-ish sort of questions each, but decided instead on making shorter responses like this so that we can get videos out there quicker. The two questions we picked for this one were the easier ones to animate for, so we chose these to start with. More to come eventually though, don't worry!

Hello again! Sorry I took so long making this, I've been kinda busy :(
Anyway, here's a preview video of what the Cynder AMA responses will look like when the rest are finished! We're still picking which questions to answer for the first full response video, but feel free to keep asking in the meantime. No decisions have been made yet :)
As for this video, the question used was picked by Taylor- the Cynder voice actress. She thought it would be a cute one to start off with, and I agree! What do you guys think? :3
And Convexity's Discord if you wanted to come and chat with us! https://discordapp.com/invite/3xsSVypSpyro/Cynder Flying WIP [SFM]Anon17182018-06-12 | Well, someone asked me to make an animation of Spyro and Cynder flying together, so decided I'd give it a try since it was something I've never tried before. I didn't get very far with it obviously- heck I didn't even make Spyro move at all yet! But, I did like doing Cynder's wing movements a lot. It was pretty fun :)
Anyway, the video was just sat on private for some reason, so now it's public instead! I'll finish this one day but I figured I might as well show what's done so far at least.Spyro/Cynder Fireplace Cuddle [SFM]Anon17182018-06-04 | This animation started off as me just messing around with fireplace effects to figure out how they worked, but it eventually ended up being a spyro/cynder thing as well, so I figured I might as well upload it so you guys can see it too. We all like a bit of Spyro/Cynder cuteness right? :)
Oh, and before anyone says anything, yes, I know the fireplace floating particle effect is broken! I only noticed after it was finished rendering. My bad- I'll have to fix that later...Time to go, Spyro! [SFM]Anon17182018-04-19 | Wake up Spyro, Cynder wants to go already! I'm not quite sure where she wants to lead him, though D:
Again, just another short little animation I made for the convexity studios fan group. This was one of the lines that we are using for people wanting to audition for the role of Cynder.
In this case, this line was of several done by my friend Taylor!

First bit was supposed to be filler videos of something else but I couldn't think what to put there so its just black D:
Anyway, hello again! I figured I'd give animating this song a try to see what it looked like with Spyro/Cynder singing it. I think it works kinda okay, I guess? If you ignore the several animation and lighting errors that I made because I rushed the video, that is :P
Worth doing the whole song do you guys think? :oSpyro does a silly [SFM]Anon17182018-03-15 | Well I'm not sure what Spyro did, but Cynder thinks it's a bit weird D:
Just another short little animation I made for the convexity studios fan group. This was one of the lines that we are using for people wanting to audition for the role of Cynder. When all the animations are done for all the lines and different people auditioning, I will post them here too :)

Far better than my last attempt at least, (oh god the cringe, watch at own peril): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NNzuMpxiNHg
More serious videos "soon" ish, just posting this to show I'm actually doing stuff still... :)Spyro/Cynder Morning Struggles WIP [SFM]Anon17182018-02-01 | Disclaimer: This animation is a work in progress for the Convexity studios Spyro fangroup! Not finished yet!
So no, I'm not dead, just slow at uploading things! Finished video to be released "soon-ish" :)
I'm not really happy with some of the movements so far though, but I will fix it (along with all the other mistakes with lighting etc), I promise :PCynder Line Practice [SFM]Anon17182018-01-09 | Sorry its been a while since I uploaded anything. I've not exactly had a good few weeks...
There is a slight rendering problem when it cuts between the two lines I know, but I only noticed it after uploading the video when it was too late to change it. Sorry :(
Cynder's Voice is done by the same actress as before, my good friend Taylor!
Her channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCv1eeqjfUUwq38TJtDflICwSpyro/Cynder Unfinished Morning Cuddles Animation [SFM]Anon17182017-12-05 | As per title... was supposed to be a continuation of the "bedtime cuddles", but I never finished it (yet!). I forgot that it wasn't publicly available to see though, even though I had it uploaded. Sorry :PSpyro/Cynder Rude Awakening [SFM]Anon17182017-11-06 | Seeing a priceless opportunity, Cynder can't resist pulling a prank on a sleeping Spyro... (What a meanie!)
First time lip-syncing this Cynder model, so it's not perfect, I know! I'll try and make some phenome presets to do this more realistically next time though. Also, making this model laugh is impossible, so I kinda chickened out with the whole fade to blur thing D:
This is also the first time I've had a Cynder voice actor to work with! Horray! I guess this animation was more of a learning experience for both of us than anything else :P (Disclaimer: this video is not for convexity studios, only for my own channel)
More practice required though, clearly :)More animations coming soon... [SFM]Anon17182017-10-17 | lol
Sorry, couldn't resist posting this short bit of the next thing I'm working on. Full thing will be a bit longer :)Spyro Lip-Sync Test [SFM]Anon17182017-09-12 | An animation that I made for convexity studios to show off their Spyro voice actor, Agent Everfree. Line was taken from the eternal night. This was my first time doing lip sync, but I think it turned out okay, considering I only spent 2 hours making this!

Made this in a day so there might be mistakes, let me know if you spot any...
Also taking suggestions on what to make next. I'm fresh out of ideas!Spyro test animation 3Anon17182017-07-21 | This one isn't finished either, basically just a test as well to see how certain things worked. I had originally done 2-3 more hours work on this that got lost in an SFM crash, during which I fixed the weird things like the wings clipping and moving strangely, etc. Oh well, you can sort of see where it was going! Lost the will to fix it after loosing so much progress, so here you guys go, as is...
Any ideas on what to make next anyone? Leave a comment with your suggestion for Spycy fluff and I will consider it!Spyro Test Animation 2Anon17182017-07-15 | Another small thing I tried to make. Didn't work very well (Spyro's movements are too slow), but it was a learning experience at least. Was supposed to be a recreation of a scene in someone's story, but I never finished it. And yes, that's Cynder you see there on the left at the end, but she is out of shot because the animation for her wasn't finished and looked horrible. Here's putting what I have so far up to YT though, so I don't feel I wasted my time D:Spyro test animation 1Anon17182017-07-03 | Fluffs! Second attempt at making an animation D:
