Winter Dawn private release

This is mythos! Mythos!

Where Typhlosion fails yet again at no grapes December!

Well, this took longer than intended. This time I again overdid a simple scenario, timewise it is 30k frames, compared to my previous longest work (BEACH DOG) of 12k! Not sure how they compare keyframe/fps wise, MMD was strange at that. And overall took about half the time to make it! Unfortunately it was kinda rushed since I wanted to finish this before winter season was over, forgive me for the jonky movements in some parts, there are even some wild x-rays that somehow slipped past my notice. I still have much to learn. At one point I thought I'm never touching blender NLA editor ever again :)~~

This little project was entirely just whimsy on a nice snowy winter day. I'm not really a pokemon fan, I just admire the designs and just then an opportunity was right there in front of my eyes! The typhlosion leaks! Regarding that honestly I think it is more freaky to be an adult who pretends to be a kid and cling to the puritan worldview of a kids show. This awful kid-family-friendly environment is causing unnecessary repression, anime is also at fault with this... I could be wrong. Normies begone!

After some time (and with a bigger budget) I'd wish to return to this animation, rerender in 4K, polish a few bad parts and add some content I had no time to do - like Dawn gasming and better fluid simulations, maybe revert to preview lightning/color scheme? Sound design is also not my forte. Talking about fluid simulations, that was a huge heck, even my current solution with metaballs reduced viewport fps by 5! It was getting from frustrating to close to impossible for me to continue, I could've done something with layers but that's to learn for the next project. That is why some parts may look too slow or too fast since I could not get a grasp on what the actual speed was even with frame dropping, and generally really slow because I underestimated the power of 60fps! Just a tip - watch it in 1.2 speed. I'll concentrate on more fast-paced videos from now on. So, for now, that's that.

Nihility, show me the night sky...

Really? Thx )) The graphics may have improved, animation wise I sticked to simpler movements, mostly all was done on a single axis!!!

Quite the quality boost from the previous one, looking forward to the next one!
