Wow, 6 years later here it is folks. If you want to know why we never finished it, its cause Christmas came went, and so did our motivation. (artist note: Also never colour anything ever). Disclaimer We don't own the music or characters.
Well, it's nice to finally get some closure on this project. It couldn't have been an easy decision to let it go (heh) and release it in this state, but I much prefer to see it this way than not at all, so thank you =)
Thanks Monsparkle :D We're glad you like it as is, we're such perfectionist when it comes to our works, we finally just had to tell ourselves to let it go and move on. Can't keep telling ourselves we'll come back to this when it's just not true.

aw thanks😊 We want to be more active on here, but life gets in the way, you know? We thought we could at least get these old videos out into the world at least
@@InkPotts That is completely understandable, and there's nothing wrong with prioritizing your work and responsibilities first. Again, thank you for being here and making people happy.
This animatic is just adorable, i especially love that it's based on a scene from Nightmare Before Christmas, Nightmare Moon's having the time of her wondrous life!!!
I remember seeing a teaser for this the first time it came out, even tho it won’t be getting finished I’m glad to be told it won’t be continued than having hope and waiting for it, I’m glad seeing more of it tho bc the throw back is just amazing
Merry Christmas from the Philippines. Fun Fact: in the Philippines we celebrate Christmas from the first day of September until the first week of January
@@HoshikoYui It's true... Another cool(?) fact is that some Filipino families don't even bother removing the Christmas decorations and leave them in the open until they are to be used until next Christmas again.
I'm absolutely sure that someone will try and finish this animatic for you. Or even make a cover with Nightmare Moon's voice, or a full animation. It's just a matter of time and I'm already hyped
@@MultiMrsmiley It's a literal translation of "amor apache" It's used when you see a couple who you knoe they love eachother but they xpress their love with some kind of low violence XD In this specifically case, I feel somekind of hate-love feeling because they took a loooooong time to share this animatic and they do it incomplete XD I'm like: I'm happy, but angry >:c Being honest, I've been following this dudes since 2014, so... I really have this feeling of apache love since they made me wait 3 years for I know those eyes XD So you could ask, why amor (love) "apache"? I don't really know, to be honest I think amor mexica (mexica love) would be better,I don't know the apaches, so I don't know if they were violent insomepart of their history, but I know the mexicas and they were really violent XD, but I don't make the idioms As my Spanish teacher says, Language is made by the speakers
_Scrolling recommended_ *_Sees Inkpotts_* Me: Now that's a name I haven't heard for 84 years Even if it'll never be finished it's awesome to see the boards, particularly NM hilarious expressions, and the gorgeous colours at the beginning. Good luck for any future projects!😊👍🏻
Even when they're just storyboard's they have so much charm and expression. That's part of what drew me into your channel in the first place. I remember going back to the update video so I could watch all the clips over and over for "In the Dark of the Night", "What's This", and "I Know Those Eyes/This Man is Dead". So, seeing the full storyboard/animatic for this song was a real treat! Seriously, thank you for continuing to inspire me all these years. And I look forward to seeing what you have planned in the future no matter how long it takes. ^^
God, this animatic (when it was a preview) inspired me SO much as a kid. It inspired me to get into visual storytelling, as the rest of your animatics have. Actually, I started writing BECAUSE of this channel. I would like to thank you all these years later, Inkpotts. Thank you for introducing me to an entirely new world of creativity. Wishing you both the best. ❤️
Oh man, I think I remember watching the preview for this in that one update video what... 5 hears ago somehow? Almost 6. Time is weird. 14 year old me is coming back and even though it's 2am and I'm in college now I have the urge to rewatch all the animatics on this channel for nostalgia lol
Putting a request to just get that last frame fully realised because that expression is great. That said, even late/unfinished, it's rad that y'all are still putting out stuff of this quality. So many fantastic faces and poses
makes me wish nightmare moon came back as separate entity from luna. Then showing character development as she slowly turns good...well goodish. I see her as sort of anti-hero in a way since she seems prefer get her hooves dirty. Good job btw
I know its been like 6 years and im a grown ass adult now, but your art style still makes me wanna bust out my sketchbooks and draw ponies like im 13 again
A new Ink Potts video? Christmas has come early! Seriously though, nice to see you guys are still around. Hoping you get some inspiration for some new content!
Thats great and Iam happy to look at these picture from your storyboard. This show me, that this shouldn't be perfect. Thank you and happy halloween :)
Motivation is a very fickle thing and I understand perfectly how the only thing keeping you tied to an unfinished project is the potential expectations of your viewers. This is a very real struggling that sent many people into a loop of shame, guilt and sleepless nights. I'm just glad you managed to get out of it and I really look forward to what you put up next, no matter when or about what it'll be :)
2020, just when I couldn't get any more disappointed with you...You pull a stunt like this...AND COMPLETELY REDEEM YOURSELF! Seriously, this is great, like an early christmas present.
Wow!!! I can't believe it's been six years since this was made-- watching it feels like slotting back into an old comforting pair of slippers, even though you just released it!! Your animatics used to be a huge source of inspiration/comfort for me when I was younger (and still are ngl)!! This is wonderful, and even if it can't hold a candle to some of your more recent art, it still holds so much energy and feeling
IM just glad you still uploaded this, i always liked idea if nightmare moon returned some sort of redemption for her and becomes own pony seperate from luna. Lucky thats what fanfics are for ^^
I second what Monsparkle said - while it would have been nice to see the completed project, it's still great to see even the unfinished thing. You're both very talented.
Can't believe I missed these notifications. Sad to see it eternally unfinished, but glad to see it uploaded & pseudo-finished & "put to bed" so you guys can move on. : )
Thank you for releasing this for all of us old time fans! Also, please remember that youtube isnt a necessity, and if you want to leave at any time that that is completely alright. Your guys's wants and health comes first!
first time i saw something from this channel was with 1/6 and i loved it. i watched 2/6 more times then i would confess, but well over 100 times. the way you guys does this Videos and the music you bring back to us, is why i get a smile on my face every time when i see something new from you, or even when RU-vid just recommant a old Video from this channel. Thank you for doing this stuff over the last years.
I really enjoyed this! The storyboard looks really good! I'm fine with it not being finished, and for it to remain in the storyboard state is something I'm okay with
There is something so sweet and heartwarming to see that deep down beneath her scary exterior there is a small part of Nightmare Moon that is still Luna ❤️.
It's okay if you don't to finish it. Just the fact that you uploaded this is enough. Thank you so much for doing this and coming back again, this really puts a smile on my face :)
You guys will always hold a special place in my heart, for both introducing me to wonderful musicials, and using such a unique concept for the ponies i once loved. This was a nice treat, thank you Inkpotts.
OMG!! This is great! I’ve missed your animatics so much, and this was a really nice treat to watch. Amazing job you two :) Keep up the great work (even though it’s from 2014, but still!)
