Wings of Fire AMV ||The Final Countdown|| (1st Arc)

It's heeere! Spent the last year making this and I'm so happy I finally can show it! Feel like I've progressed a lot while animating this (as you can see from some shots being better done than others X'D) so it was a super nice learning experience. Can't wait to work on more wof stuff after this

Who else gets chills when the Eye of Onyx shows up?

Also damnit when will this fandom make something imperfect!?

[onemuch]

I LITRALLY HAVE NO WORDS TO EXPLAIN HOW AMAZING THIS IS.

[Bellasaurus]

This is quality I've never seen in Wings of Fire content ever, I am going to say this is the best soloist creation in the Fandom. NO SHOT it's not. This is amazing Pyralis, you have so much movement and gorgeous backgrounds, character designs, this is a display of everything someone wants to be as an artist, I love it

also Sky squeaking at the end almost made me cry he's so little look at him he's so happy

[ThLightningDragon]

3 years later, this still is everywhere. This animation is in so many Wings of Fire edits, it's not even funny. But I get it, it's amazing, I love this, it's in my playlist of cool animations❤

[ashtrall]

The fact that this is fully animated blows my mind. Hands down to this masterpiece

[TennelleFlowers]

This is absolutely amazing! Cannot give you enough praise for finishing a massive project like this, and the end result really showcases the passion you put into it. You managed to not only fit so many moments from the books, but that scene at the end with Sky and Wren just melts my heart and is the perfect bookend ❤️ again, congratulations!

[StudioMaverickArt]

There’s no way. There’s no way this was done so well fully by one person. I saw the thumbnail and thought “wow, three minutes? That’s an impressive sketch pmv, let me watch it” and oh my god. Oh my goodness. I was stunned to see it was fully colored let alone three full minutes of gorgeous, smooth, fully done animation. Such an effective summary, this is a GEM for the community. Holy shit I’m amazed

[BelleWinders]

The part where starflight is running or flying from the alternate dragonets is amazing

[calebsambell]

Peril soaring above the stadium just gave me chills. And Skys expressions at the end were so realistic! If this were the trailer for the wings of fire tv show, I would be so hyped!

[mothpotato]

The detail of the Eye of Onyx still amazes me even after watching this 80 times

[miragracestudios]

This is LEGENDARY!!! Thank you for bringing one of my favorite book series to life! This is gorgeous!

Edit: THE ENDING. YES. HIS LITTLE FACE AND NOISES AND WREN. *YES.*

[augustday]

The shot of Glory at 1:21 is just BEAUTIFUL.

[Trebe-Cleff]

Ok so-holy crap, the fact that this is fully animated amazes me. This literally feels like a movie trailer for the first arc! The expressions, animation, transitions, designs, all of it is just absolutely beautiful!

[cooljellybeans]

I love how at the end, Glory gives Starflight a little nudge to tell him, ‘come on, let’s go, ’ I love all the little details in this. It is a masterpiece, and I’ll never get tired of watching it. Flawless.

[magicpancil]

This is the the best thing that came out of this fandom ever. The animation and everything just flows so well together and just- so good.. I love this so much

[ur_average_neoni_fan]

1:36:The way it smoothly transitioned from peril to tsunami was just 👌🏽

[Biohazardia]

This is truly incredible!! The effects, shading, flow and movement shown here have rightfully blown myself and so many others away. I loved the ending with Sky’s eyes getting huge and big, all the movements felt so natural! Honestly if the official WoF Tv show animation is even half as good as this I’d be thrilled haha. The hours of work and consistent motivation to make something like this are extremely commendable, I can’t wait to see future animations you make - WoF or otherwise! Also, I think Tui would adore this!

[LampPst]

This is so amazing what the hell, literally a whole movie I swear. gotta watch it multiple times to see all the detail.

[meraki]

OH MY GOD THIS IS AMAZING. love the cameo with sky, the face he pulls when wren calls him away. Also a tiny detail I absolutely adored, at the end, when they are about to fly away, Glory nudges starflight to let him know they are going. It's the little parts like this, combined with the flawless animation that just- it just makes this SO BRILLIANT.
