Oooh this one kicked my butt, but I'm so so happy with how it turned out. A collab between my buddy @galaxymew and I! I did the animation for the first two shots, and all the backgrounds; Galaxy did the animation for the final three shots, and all the effects work like the lighting and breath clouds. (She is very cool, check out her work.)
What a fun AU and aesthetic! Man, animating those two shots near about killed me (I LOVE Sol's design but he is an ornery boy to animate, with all the different moving parts.) But I had fun figuring out how to animate heavy breathing or jumping down a pile of rocks. Which, painting that pile of rocks, was also a fun adventure to problem solve! In the end, I'm overwhelmingly happy with how it all came together, and I will refrain from being THIS ambitious until at least after the holidays. Haha.
