Started as a warm-up exercise using the Keyframe helper script steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=707399942&searchtext=key+frame but then became something very fun that I wanted to push to do as best as I could xD I had a lot of fun putting this little dance thing together with Lilac and it taught me a bit too on how I can improve on other actions, hopefully anyway.
The dance is referenced from Fortnite's true heart which is derived from this music video from Blackpink. youtube.com/watch?v=Amq-qlqbjYA

Ive wanted to do this little video of Sally doing a speech for some time, but a lot of things kept me back so Ive only been able to get this done just a week away from the event. Whoops. But will you be coming over to Sonic Revolution this year? And a HUGE thanks to MacKenzie B. for her superb work as Sally.

I received this model from @BobTheGUYYYYY who commissioned a model from Teva designed after his AU version of Sonic! Put the model through some tests in this animation here on an SFM port provided by AnubisTheMaster. You may have seen I made some renders in Blender too, as this model is initially made for that platform and is helping me to learn the program some, so thats exciting too! All around a real solid model and I appreciate his adjusted proportions too, plus Sonic Prime has gone some ways into bringing the concept of Sonic AUs more into the main stage I feel

This idea came about from what was heard here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxTwNInsjG0
Are you planning on getting this game? I feel Ill more than likely be hopping on Crash Team Racing but I am curious of what you all think of this game, and the thought of it being available on mobile as well. And yes totally intended to be like that Diablo fiasco XD

You may remember Michelle Goff as the voice of Ethel for the Freedom Planet Echoes series! Here is her audition as Neera and Im very happy with her performance, so I wanted to do it justice in this little animation! Looking forward to having her voice the character in future vids! Also this monologue is an excerpt from an AU project Ive been writing out! Though it wont be animated, I may put together small segments like this once I get that project rolling ^^

At long last I can put this series behind me. Im sorry that I couldnt do dialogue or more episodes to fully go through these scenes but I hope this still manages to offer a good close to the series. I really wish to leave this to work on things with a stronger foundation, something that has had more planning go into it to make for a better series. Hope you enjoy!
If you are confused about why this episode is the way it is please refer to this video https://youtu.be/JRN475ixwOs or if you want to know a bit more in depth on whats going on in these scenes specifically you can read them up here in this doc https://docs.google.com/document/d/1v5XeNcGPCVCPGfymXlP8RsZDKXuwhVjiHuSBNcYqgkA/edit?usp=sharing
