BABY HOTLINE // Welcome Home Animation

This thing took three weeks and I hate looking at it! Enjoy!

Welcome Home has my heart captive at the moment, if you have any other song suggestions, let me know, pls. Also someone stop me if I ever try to do another FULL COLOR WH animation meme.

Made in Clip Studio Paint and Storyboard Pro!

Song: Baby Hotline By Jack Stauber

AMAZING, EDITING THIS WAS A BLAST! The amount of detail you packed into every scene is i've watched it so many times and i'm still not sick of it

[Raywasheresoyeah]

This is actually so wonderful! I love the mini reference to the fanon version of Wally with him grabbing all of the apples, but instead of Howdy being upset, he lets him have them!



Edit: What the- I'm not even part of the Welcome Home Fandom anymore huh why did this blow up a bit!?

This spoke to me in a way I can't quite explain. I don't know whether it was the intention, but the thought of a group of friends all going through some sort of existential dread but putting on appearances and trying their best to be normal and fun for each other is so sad. Amazing art and animation btw, it inspires me to try and become better at art and storytelling.

Frank holding Eddie’s letter while blushing is so adorable! Gorgeous animation, I lost track of how many times I’ve watched it.

Been fun watching the progress on your tumblr! It came out even better than expected! Sharing it with friends who doesn't even know the fandom lol

The style, the song the animation the draws.

You're an incredible underrated animator ! 👏

[konekosayno]

Your animation style looks similar to Clown! I really like it.
Also I notice at 0:25 when Frank is reading a books it says:
"I can't see you. Can you see me? Then stay quiet."
"Don't turn around."
Love the details!

"Someone stop me if I do another full color" No, because this was amazing. XD This was so good! I love how you draw all the characters! Another wonderful piece.

Home’s eye changing Wally’s expression is so yummy 😋

[tomsebo]

Well done 10/10, This was amazing possibly the best fan animation I have seen yet, excellent work.

[EvanX]

Even though it's been a year, this is still one of my favorite Welcome Home animations.

[astarburning]

this went straight into my best things to ever exist playlist. i have too many words to articulate about this, it's just that fucking good. I do want to at least say that i absolutely love the way that you draw expressions, they're incredibly well done and the contrast you show with wally's whole outside facade vs the feelings he for whatever reason can't express (probably something to do with the fact that he physically can't stop smiling) gave me chills, absolutely in love with the way you put this together and am very excited to see what you make next, especially as more lore from canon comes out over time :)

[laraschroeder]

0:25 I love that Frank is holding a letter and looks all flustered!! A nice hint as to who he's interacting with ;) 💌💜

[titangirl]

I just love this! All the tiny things just come together and make it amazing. My favorite is as Home is watching Wally leave, there's that faint red tinge to his eyes, almost as if they're angry.

[SilverAshes]

Aw man, this was awesome! The backgrounds, the illustrations, they’re all phenomenal! Plus, I think you captured the characters really well! I don’t have the words to describe how giddy this makes me, I just know you did incredible! 👏👏

[Un_prønøunceable]

GAHHH ITS SO GOOD it’s shows their personalities and it’s draws so good and the music and the transitions and the SCRIPT STORY THINGY AND OMG ITS SO GOOD

[ariartcor]

This is stunning! The setup of each scene is expertly crafted…as someone studying to be a storyboard artist—this is fantastic! You should be very proud!

[_individual_]

Awesome work lad! Really love your style for Welcome Home, it works really well, hopefully you’ll make more in the future.

[peblezQ]

This is so fluid and impossible to stop watching. It's also kinda interesting that everyone seems to be trapped, but they're just trying to survive the bleak natute of their lives together, like anyone else in this world tbh.

Ive been eating the welcome home content up and ive just got to say- this might just be my FAVORITE animation i can tell u worked rlly hard on it 😅 like painstakingly hard
