This personal piece was started a few years ago but only recently finished. It's based on this reoccurring apocalyptic dream I have often. I've changed some things in this image, but in the dream, the sky would be completely black with deep red suns sitting low all around the horizon from every angle. For some reason there was a green dragon in the sky too, though it was static and more like a floating image lol.
Maybe one day I'll make something accurate to my dreams, but for this I thought some blood moons and fire would make for a more interesting image.

This is the first MAP part that I've animated completely in Photoshop! :'D I find it more comfortable to animate in than toon boom studio due to all the different brushes I can use. However, it gets supper laggy the more layers that are added. Also, coloring and shading takes longer and ends up looking kinda sloppy. I need to figure out a better method for those parts.
I really wish I could have gone and fixed a lot of the messy bits in this but I kept everything in one file…Photoshop was acting like it was dying by the end so I just tried to finish it up really quick.
Regardless, I hope everything looks alright!

FINALLY DONE AAAAAA
I've been working on-and-off on this for about a year now so I'm supper glad to have it finally off my to do list. c': I really underestimated how long it'd take to do, and got stuck figuring out how to do a turnaround of two flying dragons. This was also planned it poorly as I kept jumping between doing the rough animation in sai and toon boom. :'0 There are a bunch of little inconsistencies that are still bothering me, but at least it's done before the deadline! :'D

I've always wanted to try doing an animation Meme but never knew how to go about the tweening and editing…so this MAP was the perfect opportunity for me to try it out! This was actually challenging to do, and not just because I had to keep it simple. I couldn't for the life of me remember how to use bone rigs correctly in toon boom so I had to do the head/fur/ear bops in photoshop instead. Regardless, I hope it looks ok! c:
I have a Spyro MAP part I have to finish soon so expect that later this month!

I almost couldn't export this because Toon Boom Studio decided that it's not going to work properly anymore rIP. I've had some crashing problems trying to export before, it seems it just wants to do it all the time now. x_x It also decided to delete all the animation for Bluestar and Princess, which was nice. I ended up redoing Bluestar and just cut Princess altogether. I'm kinda glad I did because the first part flows a lot better with one less cat popping up. Also I only just found out how to make stuff fade in and out with this program lol.
Ok, I'm done ranting about this haha
I hope everything looks alright Boz! It was nice doing subtle animation for once. c':

I tried to get this under ten minutes but that didn't happen lol. The last time I did a comic page process was about three years ago, so I figured I should do an updated one.
I didn't record my entire process, so I'm not sure exactly how long this took me to make. :P Though, I'm pretty sure it was somewhere around 8 to 10 hours.

These parts were really tiring to do, but I got a lot of practice with action, slow motion, and special effect animation. The wobbly parts bug me though, but I guess they're not too noticeable.
Also, I found out that shading is possible in Toon Boom Studio...All this time I've been exporting each frame to Photoshop for shading when I could have just used Toon Boom's pencil tool instead lol. That's why it looks a bit different than usual.

I know I said I wasn't going to be doing any MAPs for a while, but I thought a short, palette MAP like this wouldn't be too bad. Toon Boom crashed on me a few times, but it wasn’t nearly as bad as it was with other projects.
In case you don't know, this is Spyro the dragon from the classic ps1 games. I've been itching to animate him for a while now so I took the first opportunity I got. Cx This is the first MAP part that I've done entirely in Toon Boom, so I didn't have to import/export anything from Sai or Photoshop which saved me a ton of time. :'D

This is the last MAP part I owe and now I'm f r e e.
I'm probably not going to be doing any MAPs for a while because they take me waaay to long to do and it's been stressing me out like crazy. Also, Toon Boom's crashing problem has been getting worse and I'm afraid that I might not be able to finish something because of it. ;-; I will be animating some things here and there (basic stuff like walk cycles and simple movements for practice), but they will most likely be uploaded to my other accounts if I decide to upload them. Hopefully, I'll be able to raise the funds I need to upgrade my equipment to something better. At this point, animating is more of a hassle than it is enjoyable.
About the actual part: Those white things by Bluestar's chin are supposed to be star particles that move around the StarClan cats. I animated more around her head but you can barely see them here. :/ Also, I'm not sure if I over animated the lip sync or not? I keep looking at it and her mouth seems to be moving around too much too fast. It would probably look better if I animated it more subtlety....or maybe I have been staring at it too long. Oh well. xP

The background for my part reminded me of the fun, silly adventures the Pines family had, so I chose to do something similar that could have happened off screen sometime. I also wanted to add in a dragon too since we never got an episode with dragons. ;;
Some things about this:
-If scenes look like they're moving to fast, it's because they are. I made the mistake of trying to fit too much into such a short time span. The only way to get everything to fit was to purposely omit in-betweens, so now everything looks sped up. xc
-I ended up not redoing the dragon's landing because the ground shake helped make the movement look better.
-The timing is really bad in the ending scene, (I should have animated each character on separate layers instead of the same layer) but I hope it's not too bothersome. A lot is happening in this shot as well, so I made the gold stand out by adding shines to it.
-I now realize that there are some spots I forgot to color. :I
-It will be a lot easier to decode the first scene for those who get the reference. c;
-One last thing: I do not recommend animating the Stans, or for that matter, animating so many human characters in one scene. Like...you have to redraw all of their wrinkles for every frame AND their glasses. Also, Ford's extra fingers. Like animating hands wasn't hard enough OTL
TLDR: I suffered.

Toon Boom decided to be nice to me and let me finish this without crashing that much. c': I'm not really happy with the run cycle since it could have been smoother, but at least the lightning looks alright considering it's my first time animating that.
As for characters and what exactly is going on, I can't really say much about that right now...

Toon Boom finally let me finish this...it kept wanting to crash on me every time I opened it. U_U I'm just glad it didn't delete any of my frames this time. Also, I hate animating hands because I can never seem to keep them consistent.
Anyway, I did actually enjoy working on this; I got to practice lip sync and subtle movements, also I got to animate my smol son again. :'D Now I just have one MAP part left to work on, which is for a Warrior Cats MAP instead of Gravity Falls one for once.

This video was sort of lazily put together lol. I didn't add music, and I even forgot to add the final picture at the end. :P I tried to zoom it in, but the quality went to crap every time I tried that. I will eventually get myself a better video editor...someday.
Also, sorry for the lack of animations. I've been focusing on my comic and commissions lately instead of joining MAPs. I looked at some and the one's suggested to me, but I can't seem to get any ideas for them right now. ^^'
Time taken – about 7 ½ hours
Programs:
Paint Tool Sai
Adobe Photoshop Elements 7

Rough time estimates:
rough sketch – 2 hours per second
clean up – 2 hours per second
coloring – 12 minutes per second
shading – 48 minutes per second
background – anywhere from 1 to 2 hours
In conclusion, it takes me around 5 to 7 hours to finish one complete second of animation. :'D

This is my first PMV MAP part and my first time tweening things. I think it turned out alright, I had to re-render it so many times because I kept finding a bunch of mistakes with the tweening. I'm so happy I got Scary-oke though, that episode had really great lighting in almost every scene. *-*

Another Gravity Falls animation, this time in my style~ c: I decided to do this scene from Gideon Rises so I could animate emotion expression and a human run cycle. There are a lot of little inconsistencies that are still bothering me but I really needed to get this done on time. ^^' Hope it's alright!
