Face to Face With Melyssa (Animation)
Melyssa has come a long way since her first ever appearance as a random nameless lamia intended for a one-off design in this pic Snug As A Bug. But she's back with an even more mesmerizing stare at you.
As difficult as animation is, I keep getting the itch to do more. And I had an idea for doing the eyes for a hypno pic by just animating one single ring and offsetting the frames and merging them. It didn't end up exactly how I intended originally but it shifted in the creative process.
Overall I'm suuuuper happy with how this came out and I had SO much fun playing with all the effects and stuff to make it pop.
Melyssa may have started with the intention of being a throwaway design for a single pic that people resonated far more than I anticipated, but over the years of drawing her for commissions and eventually for myself, I've really grown to love her quite a lot.
I hope to write up a proper backstory/introduction based on what I hinted at in her refsheet. But for now I'm just having fun drawing her~
There is another picture with her I started drawing just for me, and I realised also that this one looks like it could be linked to it as a POV shot XD
So look forward to that.
(Though I'm so overloaded with commissions and YCHs that it may be a little bit.)
Hope you all enjoy the fruits of one and a half days of hyperfixation. Maybe like 6 or 7 hours in total? 14 FPS, 30 frames.
Melyssa the lamia pony belongs to me (and I think after viewing this for too long, you'll belong to her.)

Oh damn your animation skills are getting hella good! Looks really smooth, really love how the hypno rings slow for a second before pushing out, gives that much more life to the whole thing.
Also I swear your lighting keeps improving with every piece you do right now, Melyssa looks gorgeous in this piece!
