Blaze AnimatesHere it is lads, you've seen animatics, you've seen works-in-progress, and in the end it turns out it was another silly meme! I've been wanting to make an animation to this audio ever since I first heard it several months ago and I finally got some time to make it!
I can't wait til I actually release the Sunseekers comic because all I've done to promote it is make memes while the tone of the comic itself will be really serious and dark lol oh well
Characters all belong to me! Kratiir - Yellow dragon Torio - Green dragon Raenis - Red dragon Mauk - Brown armoured wyvern

I just felt such an overwhelming amount of nostalgia for this edgy boi that I wanted to go back and revisit my projects with him. For those of you who don't know, Boltstrike belongs to my good friend @Fizzypumpkin , and he was one of many characters in a long-running Warrior Cats RP site. For a time he was the main antagonist of a long-running plotline. It really was one of those "you had to be there" moments.

Back when I was still making The Fire and the Phoenix Episode 3, the voice actor for Raenis (@LadyJane2876 ily) sent me this audio as well and it made me laugh so much that I had to animate it!
Bc this animation is old it's got Raenis's old design that's not her current Sunseekers look but oh well
Join Spyro, Cynder and friends as they seek to put an end to Malefor's most evil scheme yet - the Nightmare Realm - in this action-comedy-drama-mystery abomination of a script!
So yeah, remember The Legend of Spyro games? With their epic story, great characters and fascinating worldbuilding? Remember how excited we all were when the movie adaptation got announced in 2009 and then disappointment when it quietly got dropped? Well, we were all played for fools because the movie script got discovered by Lost Media archivists and it is AWFUL! So naturally my friends and I had to recreate the movie to understand the sheer scale of the bullet that we dodged.

Really loved creating the colours for this one and playing around with the designs for the characters so they stand out more from the other RainWing dragons in the map.
Thank you so much @apollolyon for letting me be part of this project! The MAP will be uploaded on their channel when it's completed! Link to MAP call: youtube.com/watch?v=njlp87Frqcg
Context: The party was asking around town for any clues about a series of disappearances when they stumble across a friendly goblin shopkeeper. My mic obviously picked up the sound of me taking a bite of a snack and the players heard and decided to go along with it.

Aaaaaah this is probably the most effort I've ever put into a MAP part before! I wanted to make this as serious and professional looking as possible and I hope it paid off! I'm so so SO excited for this final project!

Anyway, the kind of people to ask for a part in the comments aren't going to read the description but oh well - remember, if you want to apply please fill out the Google form!

I honestly wanted to try to compensate for the lack of actual animation frames in my earlier Sunstreak part (grand total of 12) so I decided to go ham and animate our boy Blue doing a big epic turnaround and flexing his wings!
You can thank @Fizzypumpkin for making the cursed audio of OG Hunter saying *amogus* - we were messing around last night and I decided to make this during my break today!
RIP Spurt 4ever in our heartsSunseekers - BURNTBlaze Animates2021-05-05 | Osyrion has a new design and she is proud of it! Love yourselves, especially if you look like a burnt chicken nugget!
Just another little silly Vine to keep myself occupied :) I'm just happy my hand is back in action so I was finally able to draw and animate again!
I was so thrilled to be a part of this project! I adore seeing how much everyone has grown as artists and animators and it was such a blast to go back and reanimate the very first animation I ever made!

I just thought this was a funny idea even if it's not the most original idea - and I quite enjoyed drawing a bunch of the characters who I might not have found an excuse to draw otherwise!
I'm genuinely so happy that my first Wings of Fire MAP part would end up being in this big celebratory MAP! Despite Sunstreak being a very minor (yet incredibly important) character I wanted to make sure this part kicked ass, so I experimented a lot with a big swooshy camera and nice gradients on his scales.
I used Peregrinecella's base as a reference on how to draw BeetleWings (and since Sunstreak I believe is the only BeetleWing in the entire MAP I think taking a few tiny liberties was ok)

Kratiir starts practicing his epic speeches but he's also been on the sherry.
Kratiir's VA, my good friend Hopswatch92 sent me a voice clip of him attempting a younger voice for Kratiir for any potential animated Sunseekers prequel material, but he had also been on the sherry and was a little bit tipsy but I just thought this delivery was hilarious so I whipped this up in a couple of hours for a laugh!
Anyway I've been battling some pretty intense carpal tunnel while animating this which is why it's taken me almost half a year to complete. Take care of your wrists, my dudes!
This is for my friend Misty Wings and her Spyro-themed MAP!
Anyway, the context for this part is kind of spoiler-y and relates more to the reboot of The Fire and the Phoenix that I am planning. Here we have a slightly revamped Queen Raenis, and this takes place 15 years before the events of episode 1. Why is this dragon who hates fire breathing fire? You'll find out eventually!

BIG OOF FOR HOW LONG THIS TOOK! This episode saw me in my very busy final year of uni and my first two years of full time employment so yeah I was a pretty busy bee! I was also fraught with technical difficulties such as my laptop dying, my tablet dying, my will to live dying etc but I love this series with all my heart, and though I am 'sort of' cancelling the series I wanted to at least get this episode done since I love me some Raenis and idk I was just a fan of the script for this part.
Technically this was only half of the script for episode 3. I had the same problem with episode 2 being very long so I split it into two parts. The second half of this episode (or episode 4) would have followed Osyrion and the Pack in the Meadow Lands, and Ozzy coming to terms with her family's death. However, I am rebooting the series. I feel like I've finally reached the Alpha stage of that I eventually want this story to be, and I have a very solid idea of what I want Raenis and Onarius's backstories to be. So in the near future I will be planning a movie length one-off episode about Raenis and Onarius which will not quite follow the same continuity of this series, but will be close enough.
Anyway, thank you all so much for sticking with me through this series, and I hope you'll enjoy what the reboot has to offer!!!
Full credits for the wonderful cast and the music after the episode.
Funnily enough, last year when this MAP opened for the first time, Reignited had not been announced. But now that Reignited is just around the corner there wasn't only Spyro's birthday to celebrate, but his triumphant return as well!
Spyro is a series that I hold very close to my heart. Thanks to the classic trilogy I was first inspired to draw the characters from the games, and thanks to the Legend trilogy I was inspired to start writing dramatic stories and take my art more seriously. It is all thanks to this series that I am the person you know today.
I am sure that a lot of you watching this will also have a similar story. I know so many people who also loved Spyro and his many adventures and grew up with his games as I did. And I hope with the release of Reignited that many more young people who might have missed the glory days of the purple boi will get a chance to experience just how wonderful his adventures were.
I would like to take a moment to thank every single animator in this project. They all contributed their time voluntarily and did an absolutely gorgeous job. I cannot thank them enough, I love them all so much!
I would also like to give a massive shoutout to Toys For Bob, who are developing the Spyro Reignited Trilogy! Thank you so much for bringing our favourite purple boy back to life and reigniting our childhoods!
So this is the first MAP based on my series "The Fire and the Phoenix" (I plan to make loads more as more episodes get released) and it's absolutely fantastic! Thank you so so much to all the wonderful artists who made this possible! They're credited in the video, but if you're having a hard time reading the names, they are listed below.
Since 2015 I've been receiving a few comments remarking that Onarius, my character from The Fire and the Phoenix, looks remarkably similar to Malefor from The Legend of Spyro. Since so many different people have made this observation, there clearly must be something there! So Onarius and Malefor team up to figure out what makes them so similar!
