Much Art, and an Explanation Thereof

...has anyone noticed that I never have any idea how to capitalize these entry headings?  I'm only a few steps away from capitalizing at random, I kid thee not.  If you ever see anything like, "I had A greaT daY!" you have my permission to smack me.  Hard.

Right then, back to the art!

All right, now we have an new animation here:

Animation

Not Quick Enough

It's 500K, so you'll be watching it in slow motion to begin with.  Ten seconds long, and deals with, well, er... there's no dignifed way to say this, is there?  Fine.  Draco pushing Harry up against a wall.  A test of my new animation style and program, requested by addictedkitten.

Sadly, the full size version of this was lost in a recent hard drive failure, and thus there shall be no continuation.

But the idea behind it remains, and that's simple: I'm making an animated music video.  It's going to be about four minutes long, and full size, and slightly dark.  *thinks of the number of people she's killed in it*  All right,  more than slightly dark.  Harry/Draco, set to So Sad So Lonely by Matchbox 20.

It's all plotted, and all the scenes are all sketched.  So now it's just a matter of animating.  Yeah.  Just that.  Mmm.

Masochist?  Me?  *grins*

Anyway, this kind of leaves me with a bit of a problem.  Do I show bits as I do them?  I'm making two more short test animations right now... do I post those?  And what about all of the many, many still pictures that I'm making?

I very very much don't want to overload people with art.  At the same time, I'd like to find some people I can bounce early versions of the video off when it comes to that.  At the moment, I'm just planning to take it as it comes, but I welcome suggestions like anything.

Character Designs


Harry - who knows what he wants.



Draco - who may or may not be heliping him.



And a younger Harry, made to see bad things.  *pets*

Contains what is possibly the most disturbingly cute Harry in existence, as well as a sexier grownup version.  *grins*



An illustration of a fic written for addictedkitten, where a supremely manipulative Draco is coercing Harry into something he's not sure he's ready for.  addictedkitten summed it up best when she described Draco here as being all: "give into my will. Come on, if I look at you hard enough, you will give in to my will."



Draco and Harry and shiny swords.  Partially inspired by Quicksilver, by Aspen, perhaps the hottest swordfight H/D fic out there.  Probably the bloodiest, too, which is not a bad thing in this case. The other part of the inspiration came from reenka, who gives me the best ideas.

As always, comments on anything make my day... and let me know how much of this you can stand.  *grins*
