Wait for it…

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

this ISN’T A JOKE

I see BABD’s cult and the bad part of the FNDM have found us talking shit about them.

If I’m the idiot, then how come you’re the ones complaining about realism in a series where everyone has a magical energy barrier that protects them from harm and has weapons with alternate gun modes that’s second to only the battle choreography in sheer over-the-top absurdity?

Mindcrank, I don’t know what crawled up your ass and died, but I’d certainly expect an actual RWBY fan to know better than to blindly listen to someone who not only doesn’t know shit about anything they bitch about at all but regularly steals art, edits it without the artists’ permission, is ridiculously sex-negative, stalks and harasses everyone (inculding women) who tell them they’re a goddamn idiot, and just generally is a complete hypocrite. 

 “B-but Cinder’s arrows!”

Remember Amber’s class case? Cinder pierced it BEFORE she got the maiden powers.

Pyrrha could’ve worn armor as thicker than concrete and it wouldn’t have helped. 

Also Pyrrha’s combat style relies on her being able to move quickly, which thick, restrictive armor like the kind that BABD regularly masturbates to wouldn’t allow.

*scrolls past*

So I wanted to draw this little reference to show the difference between different members of the corvidae family. It sort of got out of hand… And now I think wings are a huge pain in the ass to draw and I never want to see a bird again.

Why do you like birds so much ?

Made this because my friend didn’t know this was a thing, so I thought maybe others don’t either? Hope it helps someone out!

Asexual and aromantic people are members of LGBT community, without conditions such as who they are in relationship with or what other romantic or sexuality labels they self identify with.

Asexuals and Aromantics definitely belong in the lgbt+ community.

So I’ve gotten a bit of ace and aro hate on my dash recently, and thought I’d make something.

Stay Dead is a 17 second horror film about a girl that’s tormented by something in her home that won’t stay dead. It definitly gave me the creeps. (Source)

@ Everyone who wants more LGBT diversity in the MCU.

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.
