Ver. with pictures if google docs is messing up, click to read them better because tumblr's quality tends to eat things:

I upgraded my Toon Boom from Advanced to the Premium version and took some lessons to learn the nodes system and THIS IS HARD XD

But it's really interesting and I have to get used to the nodes for work anyway now, so working hard to keep learning ahah. The storyboard images were real deleted boards from the show (so not drawn by me), I have a bunch more but I'm pretty much doing an exercise to re animate some of those deleted boards and I'll see if I can blend them in seamlessly in the show (I also saved some of the music suites from Youtube, so far it's working just fine) I have some voice actors doing dialogue for these too :) The scenes will also have backgrounds, I just haven't drawn them yet.

I wanted to have something I could post before my big episode that could also be an animation exercise from me so my channel isn't dead for almost a year lol. The other one I'm working on now is the alternate version from the "The trees there are green" scene from Eclipse Lake. I'm trying to re animate the movement from the show but changing the dialogue and the poses very slightly to match the storyboards more, I know it's not super creative but it's a really good practice thing to do.

(This one is VERY unfinished still - those hair lines are killing me lmao)

I'm also recording my animating process for these, but also to put as a disclaimer : I'm using the storyboards as a main guide like this but as you can see the boards aren't exactly on model so I'm eyeballing the actual show as reference and I'm re drawing the frames from the show from scratch (I have a ref from the show playing on the side)

So for example here his scars will look like they do in Eclipse Lake and not like they did in the storyboards etc. For the King's Tide one above I kept the line under his eye because I felt like it still worked and also added a lot to the expression
