Hi butterflies!!!

Here's the animation process for Monsters!!! I was quite ambitious with the animation and what not in this part and it paid off!! I'm sooo proud of it but that also meant it took a lot longer than any part I've done before. I had 56 hours of footage to edit for this!!! I cut a lot of it out, so this wasn't an hour long XD
This part was a lot of fun to work on and I can't wait for the map!! I learned a lot from this part. Like my guess and check method for coloring the markings takes forever with more complex designs and lots of frames lol. So instead I plan to sketch out the markings and approach it more like lineart. Hopefully that should make it easier and more efficient! How happy I am with this animation makes me excited for my future animation projects, it's only up!!!^^

Characters: Hawkfrost (main dude), three in the back (Breezepelt, Thistleclaw, Brokenstar)
Characters belong to Erin Hunter.
Designs belong to Theatricals.

Script: "Hawkfrost (DF) comes upon a group of Dark Forest warriors speaking quietly together in the territory. They turn around when they sense him, with their faces being sketched out as though Hawkfrost does not recognize them (or thinks they are an enemy). He looks uneasy as he turns around."
