Description
⫸⫸ Original Here ⫷⫷
Damn that's some throwback to an old animation haha
I haven't done an animation in a long time, mostly because I start the animation and then postpone it soon after due to a lack of interest or becoming busy. Since I had the slightest amount of freedom this time I decided to remake a short animation loop featuring an old concept from long ago
Aside from the decision to better the animation, I also decided to redo the design of the dragon to make it more proportionate and... I guess logical? I mean some parts of it from the original just looked really off. I also decided to exclude shading from the final product since the original with shading looked really cluttered and I kinda didn't want that in my remake Also cause I'm lazy don't judge
So yeah!
Media used-
• Animation
FlipaClip, an index finger and a phone
• Static Wing Effect
PhotoMosh
• Preview Image
MS Paint and a Mouse
As always-
The character and animation loop belong to me (please credit or ask if you ever decide to use it!)

Thank you! I think both of those words fit the description you're going for haha
I really wanted to work on the tail since the original had the worst physics tail wise haha

how smooth!!
but the question is
can they fly or the corruption still affect the dragon? ;w;

Thank you!
From what I remember the corruption of the wings disables the dragon's flight abilities, so unfortunately the lad can no longer fly

It's alright, he can make up for it with a power tail and fast running!

Going along with what I said elsewhere about that sweet, sweet refined animation - can I add that the preview image you made for this is really cute haha.

Yoooo! This is so clean, bud!
Glad to see you cracking your hand with animations again! In contrast with the original, this one really shows you have a come a long way with animation principles, specially the weight of the movement. I really love how their chubby tail smacks the ground as they run, it's adorable xD

Thank you!!!
Hell yeah I've been really feeling it recently, and especially since I'm determined to get into a course on animation I really wanna be kinda ahead on the game haha
Thank you so much, and damn you read my mind with that one; I took major inspiration from that one animation principle video on YouTube in order to help better make it feel realistic! Yeah the tail was something I really wanted to perfect since I have troubles with wavy things haha

So i'll let you know that's the best flappy, smacky tail animation i have seen in awhile! And that's no small praise haha
You're most welcome, Vic! Looking foward to more animations from you

Really cool! I reckon if you bent the front knees down more for the loop to end up lower it would give more dramatic effect. hope this helps

Yo thank you! That's actually really good advice haha, Imma try bring the weight on the character down more should I ever redo this animation again in the future!

Jokes aside, thank you so much!!
