Thank you so very much everyone!
----------------------------------------------------
EDIT: Whoa man, a hundred favorites!
Thanks everyone! I really should draw things that already have a fanbase more often. 
----------------------------------------------------
Whoosh!
I am so in love with this movie. You have no idea.
Hence the animation.
Spent about 6 hours total on this in PS CS4, then compiled and smoothed out and such in Flash.
I was a silly fish and tried drawing each scale at first. Halfway through coloring all the frames (30) I realized that changing the scatter/spacing on the opacity airbrush wouldn't look as cheesy as I had anticipated. Oops.
Please no critiquing on this. I am well aware of the choppyness, anatomy issues, the fact that he looks like a fish, and generally just messing up his design (which is beast, by the way).
Toothless/Night Fury and How to Train Your Dragon are © to Dreamworks Studios. Animation is © me. No stealing, please and thank you.
Why do I always ramble in these Artist's Comments?

Thank you!
I used Photoshop CS4 to draw each individual frame, then compiled them in Flash CS4 just to mess with frame rate--it ultimately just made it a little smoother. C:

To sum it up, it's when person A (you) requests a task done (in this case, the animation) from person B(me), then person A pays person B for their service. I hope I explained it right. D:

This is stunningly beautiful
I think "How to train your dragon" fits right up there with all the Pixar master pieces (incredibles, wall-e, UP) And that is saying something

Thanks!
Yeah, definitely. I actually thought it was Pixar when the ads first came out.

wow this is stunning Mocha! Your animations are always so fluent and well done, but this has to be a new level of awesome! SO well drawn out! I love the movement in this. It's just something I can't even fathom drawing and coloring to look as amazing as this turned out.
The coloring is fantastic and your anatomy looks great.
and I want to see this movie so bad D: <3
