Hellfire MAP part 17

This is the first MAP part that I've animated completely in Photoshop! :'D I find it more comfortable to animate in than toon boom studio due to all the different brushes I can use. However, it gets supper laggy the more layers that are added. Also, coloring and shading takes longer and ends up looking kinda sloppy. I need to figure out a better method for those parts.

I really wish I could have gone and fixed a lot of the messy bits in this but I kept everything in one file…Photoshop was acting like it was dying by the end so I just tried to finish it up really quick.

Regardless, I hope everything looks alright!

Programs:
Adobe Photoshop CC - animation
Vegas Pro 14 - final editing

I think people fail to really appreciate the extra bits of effort you put in. Those eyes, the muzzle, the way you use wrinkles. It's noticed! It's damn appreciated.

This is gorgeous! You got the entranced look on Ashfur perfect, holy wow

[linkhecometotown]

Dude, the expressions are fantastic! The head tilt and stare really showed his insanity. Usually I'm desensitized to that sort of stuff, but you nailed it.

i absolutely adore the acting in this. Especially the shift in expression when he says "desire" as if his doubt is shifting straight into a slow fascination / infatuation. The lil head shift and everything is so perfect outstanding job as usual Night! <3

SCREAMS BECAUSE THE ACTING IS PERFECTION

Okay okay okay, I absolutely LOVE everything about this MAP part: the effects animation for the fire, the way the light flickers across Ashfur's face, the subtly of his expression, and I could go on, lol. Bascially, you're my biggest inspiration for all things WC and animation ;V; Looking really good, dude! 👀👌

OH MAN i honestly love love love how you animate fire in your parts TBH and your sense of color is on 💖💕💖💕

[Draikinator]

WOW!!! WOW WOW WOW I'm sorry, I'm at a new years party and a little tipsy and I just.... Keep watching It's incredible.... Seeing my simple storyboard transformed into a masterpiece like this.... I've never felt anything like it

[kaelynsynna]

Damn Ashfur looks hella crazy.. and you showed that so perfectly bravo!

[cherrylee]

I love the expressions, movements, lip-sync, backgrounds, and everything in the animations! Amazing job!

I’m scalped. It’s so gorgeous. I love the blue and orange contrasts and flickering shadow. AAH

Sometimes I select the all layers button for the paint bucket tool. It works a bit faster than constantly selecting with the magic wand tool.

[charlotteknotts]

This is awesome!! I love how Ashfur looks morbidly curious/enamored with the fire

[neriikepler]

Oh gosh I love the acting in this, he seems so hypnotized and fascinated of the fire hate he’s holding in his paw ;w; it’s so smooth and pretty and the colors are amazing how HOW do you make something so majestic????

[nimbala]

Amazing! The lip sync was so smooth and the shading and highlights were so well done! Good job!!

Even two years later this piece is still as beautiful as it had been when it was released, top 5 eye candies on youtube

The almost look of fear in "BURNING"
to the head tilt and a look of hypnosis, "desire..." love it i love it i love it

[Keilidh]
