That's an amazing cute fan animation you made Darkwolf! Can't wait to see it when it's finished!

Thanks for the wonderful comments! I have (finally) finished another commission for Rhombus, this time of Spotter and Soar. Fliers have always been a challenge for me, but I had fun drawing these two

Hopefully with this unexpected break from school I'll be able to contribute more in the future!

Another well done picture! ^^

Maybe just their wings look in strange perspective, even if they're rosen up by wind.

Thank you very much for the art, Darkwolf!

I do like the expressions on their faces in this shot. It almost looks like they are watching something down below and Soar is giving Spotter a sardonic look at the proceedings below.

Quote

**Taunt does something stupid**

**Spotter watches with amusement**

(Soar looks over) "Is he always like this?"

I also like how the focus of the background is clearly on the sky, with other details being muted, which clearly indicates Spotter and Soar's nature as flyers. The result between the colorful background and muted palette of the flyers is a tranquil scene showcasing these two sharptooth flyers.

Thanks again for doing this! I look forward to what you come up with next.

You may be one of the few in the forum who I can always count on to make top notch drawings. I've always had a certain amount of trouble trying to envision the two in my mind, and to my disappointment my evaluation failed me. I do notice a tiny fraction of similarities with Petrie, Soar and Sierra. The only noticeable difference between them is that the duo possess a nape, whereas Sierra does not. I really like the detail in that.

I think that's meant to be the work of the wind. You can clearly see they are seated on a branch, which fits them perfectly as they are flyers. But yeah, the posture does seem a bit misleading at first glance.

It really is nice to see another picture from you. While the picture looks great as a whole, I do agree with rhombus that the expressions are simply amazing. Petrie's faraway but kind look fits him very well and I quite love the amused and deeply appreciating look within Soar's eyes. Their faces really sell the picture and the background is rather sweet as well. Phenomenal work, DW!

OwlsCantRead · **Reply #406 on:** March 19, 2020, 08:38:49 PM

Ah, what a lovely piece! The gloamish/dawnish red background provides and intresting juxtaposition to the muted browns of the flyer mates and really gives the whole thing a majestic view. Like Anagnos, I do see the similarities with the Rinkus & Sierra crew (deliberate, perhaps?), but their softer expressions and unfurled wings highlight their nature as flyers. And yes, the exasperated look and slight eyeballing Soar gives Spotter sells the whole situation without words.

Another amazing drawing once again! Other people here have expressed their praise over the background, their expressions, but for me particularly I'm entranced by the fine, intricate detail you put on that tree branch. Good job blending it in with the sunset background. But overall, I'm in love with this picture of Spotter & Soar.

Flathead770 · **Reply #408 on:** March 20, 2020, 09:43:26 PM

Ah that looks wonderful! I really like the sunset colours with the clouds! Can't say too much about the characters as I haven't read the story but they both look good! I understand that school has kept you busy, but if you could contribute more that would be awesome! (maybe with the prompts by any chance?

)

A sudden Darkwolf drawing appeared! It's always lovely to see more LBT art from you. Really liking the background on this one

RainbowFaceProtege · **Reply #410 on:** March 27, 2020, 02:40:13 PM

Just--WOW!

I am blown away by all the detail in your artwork, from the shading to the characters' poses. And your animation is nothing short of MIND-BLOWING! Amazing work!!!

DarkWolf91 · **Reply #411 on:** August 25, 2021, 12:06:36 PM

Thanks so much everyone!!! I ended up disappearing from here far longer than I meant to due to some life issues, but I'm happy to see that the forum is still active! Will try to drop by more often! For now, I have a few things to share, including five more finished commission pieces for Rhombus (Finder, Ponder, Path, Leap, and Sternclaw!) and a completely finished version of the ducky / petrie animation! (I'll post the animation in a second comment below this one due to file size restrictions)
I'm going to keep up with messages from now on, so if anyone still needs something from me feel free to send a new message about it!

DarkWolf91 · **Reply #412 on:** August 25, 2021, 12:06:59 PM

The animation!

jassy · **Reply #413 on:** August 25, 2021, 12:19:26 PM

It’s great to see some new stuff from you DW!!

I really like the shading and lighting in all of these pierces, and the backgrounds are very well done. Also the Petrie and Ducky animation is cute, and it’s so awesome to see it finished!

RainbowFaceProtege · **Reply #414 on:** August 25, 2021, 01:19:35 PM

Welcome back, DarkWolf! These drawings look amazing

and oh my goodness, the animation!!! That looks like it could be official!!! Super cute!!!

I love that perfect loop! Incrediable

Sneak · **Reply #416 on:** August 25, 2021, 08:06:25 PM

Long time no see, Darkwolf! Good to hear from you again!

And

...

Set of drawings already amazed me, but after I saw this beautiful smooth colored animation...

I'm just speechless.

Thank you for this beautiful piece of art!!!

The jewelstone queen · **Reply #417 on:** August 25, 2021, 08:18:50 PM

May I ask what software/app you used to animate this?

(i just wondering, i use firealpaca

I use Clip Studio Paint for just about everything now! It's a really powerful program, and the EX version has a lot of great animation tools.

The jewelstone queen · **Reply #419 on:** August 25, 2021, 10:34:42 PM

Nice! I'll have to look into that. As Firealpaca doesn't do me too well. I can't animate to music on there, which stinks.
