Winter loves his personal space

I remember when this map call came out and I wasn’t even animating yet - and I hadn’t posted my first video either. I think it’s so cool that I’ve gone from watching the map call and being awed by the skill of the animators to actually??? Getting a part in it?? Like that is insane to me omfg

I’m a little late to the Pista Toma party, I started working on this a couple weeks ago haha
Speaking of- I took a break from my art for the past few months because of some irl stuff that took a huge toll on my motivation/overall mental health- I’ve been taking more time to myself, just doing what I want to do. Not everything is completely okay, but I can say I am doing so much better. :) and I can do art again!!!!
I can’t thank you guys enough for 3k!! Wow it’s been almost a year since my last milestone, I can’t believe how far I’ve come since then in terms of my art :))
I can’t promise consistency or frequencies in uploads, since I have a job now and I’m more busy lately, but I’ll do my best to post what I do make every once in a while.

put “animation meme” because I feel like this could be a template for other ppl to put their own ocs in
I would have finished it, but the folder containing all the files for this animation- and a few other pieces of unfinished Rain and Starseer art- somehow got erased.
I am so incredibly frustrated about it, especially because that folder contained the vast majority of the art I have for them, but also because of the work I’d already put into the animation that got deleted before I could export it into CapCut.
So yeah, I might redo this one day when I get the motivation back, but for now enjoy :) despite the circumstances I’m still very proud of it and excited to share with you. :))
I’m also starting to get better again, I feel like I’m making it out of my art slump so yea :D

it might be a while until uploads are consistent again, a lot of stuff has happened irl so I’m currently processing that 👍
And I’ve been having a hard time finding joy in my art, it’s not as fun for me anymore. I’m too focused on making everything look right that I end up not finishing a project or completely scrapping it alltogether. I am working on that though, I’m trying to find as much joy in creating as I once did.
But in the meanwhile, here’s a quick sketch animatic I threw together :De
Commission Info:
turtlecommissioninfo.carrd.co
There is a story behind this, which I will be revealing soon as I work on the lore of my AU. I’m pretty much reworking the entire world of WoF and going more in-depth and detail with the tribes and how they live, as well as general culture and beliefs. I’m pretty excited to share this alternate universe :)
This animation will also be posted on my Instagram and my TikTok.
Characters:
Starseer - NightWing, she/they
Rain - RainWing, she/her
Enjoy! :)
I’m calling it an original because I haven’t seen anyone do an animation meme with this song?? So yeah :D
It actually started out as a mini animatic, with just the first few lyrics, but then it kinda descended into madness so yeah now we got a more than a minute animation :) I tried some new things with this, like rendering styles and whatnot. I’m pretty proud of how it turned out :D aside from some consistency in like, face shapes and whatnot. I have trouble keeping consistency with that but I’ll get better hehe
These characters, Rain and Starseer, are the main protagonists of an AU I’m currently developing. It’s in the same universe of WoF but kinda like, an alternate timeline with totally different lore and story and whatnot. But yeah, I’m fleshing everything out a lot so be prepared for some lore vids and animatics, and maybe I’ll start posting some of my writing for this world. I haven’t figure out a name for the story yet though
Anyways. Feel free to make your own version of this meme, and please please please tag me in it I would LOVE to see it and add it to the playlist!!
Anyways love you guys love you gays love you women enjoy ❤️

I made this a couple months ago, intending to sketch a storyboard of the full song, but I lost motivation and it hasn’t been touched in a while. I have a script for the rest of it, so maybe I’ll finish it one day, maybe I’ll make it into a MAP storyboard. Idk, enjoy
I thought this song fit very well with the whole situation of Albatross and the SeaWing Massacre, and I wanted to practice body language and acting as well so yeh
Characters:
Albatross

Anyways, I’ve been seeing this trend going around and thought it fit pretty well with a few WoF characters, so I thought I’d do it with a few that fit the concept of “okokok” and “lalalala”.
Also, to me, I interpret it like there’s multiple types of okokok - a nervous kind, just going with the flow and happy to be there, like Turtle, and a hyped up kind, like Swordtail. And the lalalala’s are the flirty, aloof, or carefree characters. Overall I loved doing this :) maybe I’ll make a ych in the future and do this with other people’s characters!
Characters (in order+left-right):
-Turtle and Kinkajou
-Moon and Qibli
-Swordtail and Luna
-Sundew and Willow

I’ll probably write a real description later, I’ve just finished speedrunning this thing and I am quite tired
Remind me never to suddenly decide I’m gonna do an animation meme 2 days before my birthday and end up making everything super rushed
So yeah sorry if it sucks my tired hyperfocusing brain wouldn’t leave me alone :[ curse you brain
Anyway yeah happy birthdy me haha silly
Original by louixie: will add link in a sec
I had this song stuck in my head last night so I made a quick sketch thing with it :D a filler while I work on other projects
This character doesn’t have much story to it currently. It doesn’t even have a name yet- but pretty much they’re a blue dragon/deer creature that has this magic liquid crystal stuff that it carries in a pouch thing tied around its neck. It encased itself into the crystal in this cave, I’m not sure why yet but I think because it was injured? Anyways, it went to sleep, slept for a while, pretty much a coma, and then suddenly woke up because of something or other. Blue powers, gathers the liquid stuff and forms it into wings. Oh yeah, the crystal stuff? Part of their power, pretty much they use it as a tool and make it into wings. And they can form weapons and other stuff out of it. I’m still developing it. I have a separate story I’m working on right now, also rewriting old ocs from middle school, so maybe I’ll work the blue guy into the story somehow. I dunno why I gave them paws in this animation- I meant to give it hooves but oh well.
I’m excited to show you guys the stories I’ve been working on- I love storytelling, and I’ve always wanted to create something memorable. Hopefully I can do that through my art :)
Time taken: 17 hours of work total over a week and a half
Programs: Procreate for all art, CapCut for editing

Yayyy a redo!!
The first one I made was almost completed before I stopped working on it, but I finally found the time and motivation to redo it like I planned to!
I’m super proud of this! I finally have designs that I’m happy with, and I definitely feel like I’ve improved with my animation and art skills since this was first made about a year or so ago.
Explanation:
Darkstalker wakes up from his 2000-year slumber. He is devastated at the loss of the future he’d foreseen and wanted, particularly the dragonets he could have raised and the throne he could have shared with his soulmate, Clearsight. Then we’re shown a flashback of the last time he’d seen her, when he’d grabbed her by the wrist and yelled at her, demanding to know where his scroll was. His breaking point. Then, a shot of Darkstalker, asleep, the bracelet on his wrist having sealed him in slumber which then transitions to his awakening with the bracelet broken. He rises from the mountain, then we are shown a shot of Kinkajou offering the strawberry to Darkstalker with Foeslayer and Moon present. A shot of his eyes while he is transformed by the enchanted strawberry, then end.
I love love love Darkstalker’s character, although I think that he, with his morals and actions, is entirely unredeemable. He is tragic, yes, he lost everything he had- his powers, the future he wanted, his soulmate, his tribe. But his actions make him an unredeemable villain. He is a thoroughly selfish dragon his entire life. He is unjustifiable, and his actions are unjustifiable.

Oh, and this storyboard isn’t final. I’ll definitely be redoing it once I actually start the storyboard, this is just what I have for the intro portion.

Aghhhh I’m kinda proud of this? Despite it being super rough I feel like I’m getting better at body language and consistency in my animations (especially I’m the second shot, damn I’m proud for pulling that off) which is definitely what I’m looking to improve on. I love doing these little animations, it gives me a break to just create how I want to for the sake of making it for myself.
(Oh, and the imagery isn’t symbolic of anything. Just some silly lil angst)
Enjoy your day/night!

Oh yeah it’s moon and darkstalker btw :]

It’s been such an amazing year! I feel as if I’ve improved a lot in my animation, and I am so so looking forward to seeing how this year goes. I’m definitely gonna be working more on improvement than anything this year, as well as learning how to draw other things besides dragons, like humans and stuff like that.
Thank you to all the people who’ve seen and commented on my art, I see most if not all the comments and every single one brightens my day. I have a special place in my heart for you all. You are the people who encourage me to strive to improve every day.
And to the friends here who know me irl: if you see this, I’m so happy to know you and you have no idea how much you all mean to me. I love you guys so so much :]

This was mostly a lighting practice, I’m trying to get better at full pieces with backgrounds and whatnot and capturing the emotion/feel of the moment. I think I did pretty good with this one :]

This is mostly an editing practice, but the scene it’s portraying is when darkstalker meets his mum for the first time after waking up.

Context: happy flashback/dream of the beginning of darkstalker/clearsight’s relationship, then ds wakes up in his cave and cries :)
Tbh I don’t really feel bad for darkstalker. He got exactly what he deserved, which was losing clearsight among other things.
I’m actually quite happy with this, especially the beginning. I’m starting to get down camera movements and lip sync stuff which I’m super happy about :)

Explanation:
This is supposed to be about the trio, and their alliances in the war as well as how they die. (For blaze, it’s just her being injured by her sister since she didn’t die. The Burn’s claw covered in blood, as well as Blaze’s face and Blister’s eye are kind of representing their personalities/strengths. Burn is strong and brutal, and she enjoys bloodshed, so an image of her claw. Blaze is the pretty sibling, so an image of her face. Blister is cunning and smart, as well as sneaky so an image of her eye is shown- cuz y not xD. Burn is killed by a snake, Blister disintegrates into dust, you get the idea.
