I also recorded the complete session of the rough animation process on the scene n°3: (part 1/3)

Here the next step: (2/3)


Since the proportions in the rough (last video) were quite off, I had to resize many things, specially the heads.
I used the "behind" brush option to draw blue lines for a quick tie-down and green lines as reference for the initial position of the hair.
Like that I managed to do everything on the same layer wich was pretty handy. ^_^

I'll wrap the scene on the next video.

The final session (3/3):


I started by filling the color layer with red, then I used the bucket tool with "erase" option to clear everything around the character. Like that I'm sure there's no hole under the lines.
After that, I locked transparency on that layer and applied the color of the pants on the whole thing (that's one color I won't have to worry about). The rest is just basic coloring with bucked and brush (for the small or narrow parts).
From 0:58 I add a shadow layer to give some volume.
At 1:51 I start to work on the background, using the Keyframer tool to move the seperated elements along a trajectory.
I also used a script to create the speedlines with a mask so it renders only on the areas I want.
Well, that's all for that scene.
It miss few little things like the FX refining but most of the process is there.

Another couple of scenes:


First time animating an explosion... it's kind of tricky.

I finally completed the clip for the card game Bacon Project:



The character design was done by Lucjan Pakulski (Runshin).
I took care of everything else: storyboard, animation, backgrounds and colors.

Apart from few 3D references (mostly for the guns) everything was done in TVPaint.

Hello,

Your animated clip is really nice!
Congratulations and thank you for sharing your work with us!

[DenX]

Thanks !
I always wanted to try to animate this kind of stylish duel so when Lunchkunn (creator of the game) asked me I gladly accepted.
Specially that I'm a fan of Runshin's designs.
