this is so beautiful?..??? beyond words???? legit put my phone down and put my hands over my chest just to process this thing this song is so perfect, first of all (dont ask me where i've been sleeping??? HELLO??) and your art is so lovely - im such a big fan of your composition ESPECIALLY the pool scene oh my good god goshness the slightly off centeredness, the swirl of their arms and the water flowing into the angle of their heads, not to mention the BEAUTIFULLY TEXTURED wet., you've so captured the feeling of reading the books, from the anatomy (PROPS ON THE ANATOMY. MASSIVE CHEERING AND SCREAMING) right down to the serif font. the objects + smile at the end add to that too theyre such smimple drawings on their own in composition but tgey hold so much weight; it feels very much like an inside jokey kick to the readers, like a reward for reading the books because you can feel SO happy for understanding it.... does that make sense to anyone ever another couple personal faves bc my waters boiling - the hatching when harrow is holding gideon's body is. oh god that's hurtcore its giving heartbreakwave. i actually paused to screenshot that one and im being real ascetic with storage rn. gideon has her head tilted away and is smiling so calmly, but her body has so much weight and cant be mistaken for being anything but dead - i can't figure out how you've done that AHH THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE HIGHLIGHTS BUT THERES TOO MUCH TO SAY um this style of making animatics vertically is so unique i love that. the speech bubbles feel darkly hilarious against the drama of the scene - again, just like reading the books! also, with the fully coloured busts at the start, transition the animatic into the chaos of the story. if saying these words is anything. well freaking done.
thank you thank you thank you SO MUCH!!!! this is the kindest comment ever and it seriously means a lot to me ❤️❤️❤️ originally this was posted in a vertical art format but i later realized it was possible to make into an animatic, so i hope that explains the formatting lmao! this is really so nice i will keep doing tlt animatics... for you...
WOW. gideon's face! the hands! the EYES! the way alecto looks SO hollywood hair barbie but also so much like a REAL person when she opens her eyes but also there's still something subtly off about her (and her "realness" remains as she closes her eyes again~!)? is exactly how i imagined it when reading. OH ALSO. ONE OF THE BEST WAKES I HAVE EVER SEEN <3 <3
I’ve not read these unfortunately but I love this so much!! Your humans look fantastic; they’re all really nicely distinct from each other! I especially like the girl at the end and also the cows. I’m not entirely sure what’s up with the cows but I love them
