I’m constantly asked about this, so I’m posting my brushes here. A friendly reminder that my SAI is russian and I have to roughly translate the signs.
Also they’re half-transparent
1. Ah Fai was a chief animator for McDull’s animated features. He’s super cool. Ultimate senpai.
2. Previous post on breakdowns right here
Some thoughts on acceleration and force
I presented this in the order of how I slowly understood the trick of delivering force - first an abstract concept of impact taught by Ah Fai, then a more complicated discovery on the acceleration pattern, last back to a more abstract concept of breakdowns.
Like I’ve previously stressed, 2D animation is everything but one single approach. There’s no one rule that rules them all, but interchangeable ideas with math, or physics, or music, etc. There’s no “perfect” animation either, but what is perceived as organic and dynamic. E.g., using the Fibonacci numbers to animate didn’t bring me a perfect animation! On the other hand, a tiny change in the pattern could already make the feeling of force so much more powerful.
Not so much of a tutorial than a personal experience. I hope you find this interesting hahaha
i noticed almost every character in overwatch has supportive dialogue lines so i decided to put them all together in one massive audio post and i maybe… got a little too emotional
music: undertale - his theme by toby fox i got all the dialogue lines from here: x
Start pushing for a movie or show about the Young Avengers, because hot fucking damn THERE YA GO.
Ya got Koralina Dean who is a lesbian, and has badass solar energy powers.
The girl she’s dating, Julie Power, who is pansexual.
Teddy Altman aka Dorrek, who is half Hulk half changling and also gay. He’s also an alien prince.
And Billy Kaplan, who has fucking reality warping abilities, a shitload of kenetic abilities, healing telepathy. He’s also Scarlet Witch’s reincarnated kid. He’s dating Dorrek.
So we’ve got these, frankly, awesome as all hell characters with some cool powers (seriously Wiccan’s powers are fucking badass, just like Scarlet Witch. And Koralina’s powers? Stunning to look at, absolutely stunning), yet I don’t see ANYBODY claiming about there not being enough LGBT represation talking about them; if it’s simply a matter of not knowing, here you are! Now you know, read up on them to your heart’s content just like I’m doing right now (Avengers Academy seems pretty damn interesting period, if it’s good and not apart of the clusterfuck that is currently Marvel I may just have to get some of the comics).
Marvel has always been pretty good about diversity with their characters; race, ethnicity, religion, sexuality, the whole shebang. So I’m not really understanding this need to force LGBT status on non-LGBT characters, when we have these characters already.
No, I don’t want Cap to have a boyfriend if it means it’s forced bs to make shippers happy, that doesn’t sit right with me. Give the characters like the ones listed above more love and attention, who knows we may see them on the big screen one day.
More of a chance than we will forcing LGBT status on non-LGBT characters, that’s for sure.
Frankly, I wanna see Northstar in something, and yes it is mostly because he’s Canadian.
