The remaining entries for Ethel are on the way! In this part we start to see the scope of their experiment, continuing Ethel's enthusiasm for how things are proceeding. Surely this can only end well, right? Also tried out a slightly different format for this one, with it mostly made in Source Filmmaker rather than static renders, hope this change is a good one ^^

![[SFM] Dance Break
Took a quick break from some bigger stuff to make this short thing, again sorry for few uploads. Unifier will be getting along as well, but Ive been contemplating streaming some of the work on it, so you can see the work behind it all. What do you say?

![[SFM] Shadows Limit Break - Chaos Torrent
Special thanks to Shadow759 for voicing this! I had recently finished Super Mario RPG and felt the urge to make some cool flashy special attack. So heres my concept idea of a limit break for Shadow the Hedgehog, calling it Chaos Torrent. Its basically just a fancy animation version of his chaos spears XD What do you all think?

![[SFM] W U M P A
Hey guess what, this animation is still relevant XD Made this a good while ago as a short like 2 second clip, too short to be a video but thought Id share it with you today on a bit of a playback. As the text said, this short animation was born from when the Crash Twitter account started posting an hourly Wumpa meme with no real context, and much to a lot of peoples frustration. Personally I dont mind that theyre teasing Wumpa League and havent given much else, its probably going to be the last major Crash thing for a good long while so knowing that something is coming works for me. Plus its only been a year now since Crash 4 so I think were still doing fine here. Yes the shadow breaks the loop, an oversight from long ago Im afraid

![[SFM] Ben Schwartz as Metal Sonic pt 2
Recovered this older animation of mine from my files and finished it up, a part 2 to my Ben Schwartz as Metal Sonic video! This was pretty fun to do as this time around I presented Metal Sonic through different Sonic titles, including one he wasnt even in XD Just like before, these clips are taken from his droid role in an episode of Star Wars the Bad Batch! Had enough for a part 2 and so here we are, enjoy it!

![[SFM] Shadow Enters Multiversus
Any chance for Shadow being in Smash in an official capacity is over, or at least as far as we can see right now. But there is still another platform fighter out there that may give him all the options he could ever ask for XD Thanks to Shadow759 for being down with this silly idea!

![[SFM] Long Time No See
For those who remember this one from back then, I initially uploaded it as a short. But you know what, I feel like I was gaslit into doing so, plus the video resolution wasnt really made to fit that as I was trying to learn this format. All that to say that I just felt like uploading it as a proper, brief video that it was meant to be. Hope you enjoy it, theres more Freedom Planet goodies to come!

![[SFM] Ouroboros
Concept/test of something I want to do very soon, the title will make more sense then. Summer break just about over so its back to regular work schedule for me, but Im still planning to have something for Mania coming up in a couple days. I hope you enjoy this short preview though, had some fun playing with some new effects I was thinking about!

![[SFM] Sign Language with Lilac
Canonically Lilacs ear pieces are hearing aids, as her own ears suffer from a genetic defect rendering her hard of hearing if not deaf. With that in mind, I had this headcanon that Lilac would know sign language! And given the world of Avalice I thought itd be fitting to include a Chinese Sign Language variation of this brief phrase ^^
