Some Dragons (ANIMATED!)
Holy Shit, there are gifs. Gotta get this out quick before FA "Upgrades" again...
Okay so,
Takaani's been giving me personal donations, financial gifts and has just been an all around menace. So, after this most recent one in which she wildly claims she gives gifts to friends 'this time of year' for some random ass reason, I vowed retaliation. The result is this, in which I finally use my animation powers for good. An idea that's actually been floating in my head for a while, this is a remake of a Simpsons scene I rather enjoy. Unless you've never seen it. In which case, I made it up entirely and am very clever. I'm not the kind of artist who would be good at the complexity that is dragons. So my goal was to simplify the design of her character down to something that could be executed in my pixel style for animations.
Speaking of which, let's talk about this motherfucker -->
Faluma
So I figure I'll have the one dragon be Takaani's real life beau, right? But while she's mentioned him often enough in our conversations I never really got around to checking out his character and seeing what he looked like. I just knew it was also a dragon. All I know about the guy himself is that his name is 'biblical' and starts with J.
So I go over to Jesus's page to sniff out his ref sheet, and like...I'm looking right at the fucking thing, staring right at it, and I'm like "...yeah, I can't see this fucker." Character's palette is black on more black accented with blue that's also sorta black. So I'm looking at the reference sheet for fucking Noob Saibot and trying to figure out how to make this character at all visible in this style, where his expressions are important. Ultimately I just kinda cheated and decided, fuck it, he's more dark grey than black and his belly is all blue. it's...VERY luminescent today, he's been eating lots of nutrients, lots of healthy plants and people.
They other dragon's just some random thing I did while trying not to make it look too much like a Pokemon.
So there it is folks. And no, Mrs. H, you may NOT try and sneak money into my open mouth while I sleep, it's retaliatory like I said, and you'd just be continuing an endless cycle of violence.

This...this is an act of war. I do not deserve this level of effort, with the animated 'hand into fist' motion, so many different 'bap' poses as Takaani bonks her head into Rakant, and the way Rakant is being shoved over just that little bit with each headbutt. This is too good of a Christmas present for me not to continue the cycle of violence. So I will.
