#fully coloured animation

I had a conversation with some friends of mine about how it would be funny if a transformer signed "car", and here it is. it took me like 5 days. If there are any issues with the signing, let me know! I'm using east coast dialect because that's where I'm from.

[ID: a digital redraw of the scene where chuuya shoots dazai in the shoulder. on the top of the drawing is chuuya holding a guy to dazai's head in the red and grey hallways of the prison. on the bottom of the drawing is dazai's pained face. the gunshot is shown stylistically as hectic lines behind his bloody shoulder. over the image is half a quote from goncharov that reads 'if we really were in love you wouldn't have missed.' the signature says dandelion-roots. end ID]

This quote from Goncharov (1973) in relation to soukoku has been haunting me from before I even got to that scene in the anime (the full thing is: Katya- Of course we're in love, that's why I tried to shoot you/ Goncharov- If we really were in love you wouldn't have missed). Violence as a tool for communicating emotions, especially love and hatred, especially love and hatred makes me go feral- how could I not think of the iconic quote that says that katya's miss was a sign of a lack of love/a fake love when chuuya didn't miss? Just... losing it over here.

i don't care that there's a murderbot tv show in the works. it should have been animated instead

been thinking a lot about. what if he stayed as that more humanoid version of his monster when he came back. no wings because i couldn’t be bothered drawing them + his form seemed like it was constantly shifting anyway while talking to the lion and he only had them sometimes?? little confusing

Tenmas based on screenshots from the 2003 series! The first was mostly me wanting to try rendering Pluto's take on Tenma with 03's vibes, the other was more of an attempt at interpreting 03's style how I would draw it.

i’ve stopped expecting interesting animation from bones. the star and stripe fight is cool but like every other fight/moment in mha, it’s only cool bc the source material itself is cool; bones does nothing to elevate the manga

they rarely try to experiment with colour and style. i saw so many colourings of the moment star and stripe made a giant version of herself out of the air; people made her look like a cosmos, like it reflected and bent the sky around her, doing so many inventive things and for the anime to just make her an outline against that godforsaken sky? i’m disappointed

but people will take me saying i’m disappointed and spin it to me saying the fight was bad. it wasn’t, just like most fights and moments in the anime aren’t bad but that’s all bc horikoshi knows how to draw. they never do anything beyond that; they never try and adapt it. whether it’s bc of time, direction, budget, or what have you, they will never do something truly inventive with their colouring

i’ve said this before and i’ll say it again, it’s not just that the sky is blue; it’s what the blue sky represents and that is an unwillingness to broaden their colour palette or atmosphere to support the changes in the tone of the story. the story isn’t just “will midoriya get into his dream high school and achieve his dream job?” it’s child abuse and societal systems and their dysfunctions, it’s racism and morality and is it right to try and save someone who’s determined to destroy the world just bc they are also a victim?

look at the finale of atla, a show that mirrors the narrative tone of mha; it starts out bright and colourful and vibrant to match the happy and small stakes nature of the story and as the tone of the story changes, the environment changes to reflect that. the siege of the north pole? everything goes blood red when the moon spirit is threatened, then goes completely desaturated when it is killed with only fire bending having any colour. the day of black sun? uses a solar eclipse to change the lighting. the entire sozin’s comet fight? has red skies and lighting to show the threat

bones abject refusal to change anything about the art itself is a detriment to horikoshi’s complex narrative

FINALLY!!! WOOHOO!! maybe around ~24 hours of work and ,

endoskeletoing btw would i sound off-the-rockers mad cray cray if i said that i went thru all this work just to test ntscQT again. like just to see how it'd look on animated work

also, progress gifs HOORAY

(the video with the effects couldn't be giffed because ezgif kept eating the endo's eyes)

also funny fun fact about me making this doohickey.. so uhh my only good ref of endo-01 in my style is a stupid bodypillow drawing (it is SATIRE!!!!btw) and i had to, unfortunately, whip it out exactly 8 times (i counted) & i also ran exclusively on water and cheese puffs while making this

does anyone else wish the pastel colour palette from MLP:FiM's first season was kept for the whole show? i personally find it incredibly appealing and nice to look at, it gives the show a very soft cosy fanstasy feel and works really well with a lot of the character designs, particularly with characters who have lighter colours. it makes the show feel much more comforting to watch and gives it a certain charm that i find very nostalgic as well. i've come to really dislike the much more saturated and bright colour palette that was used in the late seasons and i feel like a lot of characters look kinda odd with the brighter colours. Twilight, Fluttershy and Pinkie look slightly off with the bright colours, especially Twilight. she's way too bright and i feel like her coat colour could be toned down a bit imo. and also if i'm gonna be honest, the brighter colours actually strain my eyes a little bit and i need to turn the brightness down when i'm watching anything from season 8-9. i much prefer the softer pastel palette!
