Part 2: - not done yet

I'm sorry but when Sonya is asking Dawn why Diego is so afraid... the animated part of him zipping by around the round pen made me laugh... I had to keep it in there lol.

Anywho its finally here! *round of applause*... Took a whole year to plan, figure out, and actually get done... flash animation is hard to work with .

There are of course some stuff I need to clean up some more... and re do even... but at this point in time I think it is finished enough to post.

What originally delayed it for so long... I had to cut out scenes or add some more in because of the deadline I planned for it was too short for some of the stuff I wanted to fit in there... what you see here is actually two pages in my sketch book for the interactive comic.

Anywho I hope you all enjoy the first part of it . Now that I have figured out how to do the sort of thing I wanted to do hopefully the next part comes a lot more quickly.


Notes:
The reason why the art is more simpler is because flash 8 can't handle a big file with a lot of gradients or details in each frame. I have a very powerful computer so that just gives you an idea how complex flash 8 is with coding.

I used references on the red truck (partly because I don't know how to draw cars lol). But as for the trailer that was out of sheer memory of my own horse trailer (it actually looks exactly like my horse trailer at home lol ).

You got questions about this (comic wise or flash 8) I got answers so don't be afraid to ask .

xD i like the little spurr thing inbeween the scenes. although the fact that is moved around kinda messed me up though i was like when it stopped, and then im like *ohwaitihavetofindthespurrr*

Yeah I knew that was going to be a problem . It was actually a lot worse when I got the whole concept down lol... though I am seriously considering making the button different each time like a bird in the tree, or a mouse in the corner lol... just to piss some people off

This is really cool! I can only imagine how much work this took! I understand things taking a while. I've had a manga planned for over a year and haven't been able to start due to my lack of human drawing ability.

Thundering-Hooves In reply to DelightsJD [2008-09-28 05:49:09 +0000 UTC]

Yeah I know the same feeling (you can see how far i've gotten with humans in part 1) XD. I was for a long time holding it of just due to the fact I knew it was going to take forever... but once I started to force myself to sit down and work on it little by little it finally came together .

DelightsJD In reply to Thundering-Hooves [2008-09-28 06:33:12 +0000 UTC]

lol! While I'm going to incorporate horses into my manga, I'm going to need to use humans alot. I'm busy with school and have a lack of motivation, but I'm hoping to at least get the cover page up soon. Hopefully it won't be super bad. People are alot harder to draw than they look. XD

Thundering-Hooves In reply to DelightsJD [2008-09-28 06:37:30 +0000 UTC]

Yeah totally I mean why can't we all draw humans perfectly? We see them every single day of our lives (or at least I hope you do ). So why can't we put what we see so often down on paper so easy? lol... it really sucks if you know what I mean

DelightsJD In reply to Thundering-Hooves [2008-09-28 07:24:27 +0000 UTC]

I know exactly what you mean! I've never understood that concept myself. I know a ton about horse anatomy and can image it in my head in almost any pose, but the human body is a mystery to me. Like there's things I don't know and shapes that I can't remember. I dunno why, I see them more often then horses but have a harder time remembering what they look like. 0.o

Thundering-Hooves In reply to DelightsJD [2008-09-28 15:45:39 +0000 UTC]

I know but I think its because we never sit down and actually study movements... but I have no idea... I just question why our brains won't work properly Hopefully its not the first signs of memory lost

I was looking for human references of hands and someone else on DA had a link to it in their description. Go to the main page and look at the hands for drawing. It's really cool because you can rotate them in any direction. The only bad thing is that there is an overexposed male torso when you first click on it. Other than that, I really like it.

Thundering-Hooves In reply to DelightsJD [2008-09-29 03:37:59 +0000 UTC]

Yeah.... overexposed gets pretty overexposed when you hit the pro area of art lol. Its a sweet site though... rather genius I think

I can't agree with you more. I want to learn more about the human body, but I don't think I need to know quite that much. XD
