Artist's Comments

Small update here, but added a layer count for those that are interested.*

Did you know emotes are incredibly resistant to heat?

:icontheplz::iconmoreplz::iconyouplz::iconknowplz:


Seriously, though. :giggle:

I primarily made this for =TheRocksters BIG Emote Contest. I was sitting there, thinking of what I could possibly make as an entry, when suddenly I remembered something...

A few nights ago, I had this dream that I got an assignment for class where I had to make a volcano somehow, and I obviously wanted to make it using pixel art. So what did I do? I ofcourse decided to grab that dream and make an actual emote out of it. :B

Now, there are a lot of things in here that I'm not too happy with and things that didn't end up even near to what I wanted it to, especially the super crappy lava, the horrible shading on the actual volcano, and the animation of the emote, but I think this is as good as I'm going to have patience with making it...

I hope you all like it at least. :)

Animation Frames: 16
Frame Delay: 0,07 sec

*Number of Layers: 210**

**Not as many as in Power Miscat Handling, that one had a total of 331, but still a lot. Keep in mind, though, that some of those layers are sketches, tests, and unused ideas.

= Colors Used =
Lava: 5
Volcano: 8

Put a fire-proof emote on top of a really happy volcano and you get one awesome Volcano Ride by `LeoLeonardo! The animation is flawless and the details in both the volcano and the emote joyfully bouncing on top of it are nothing short of amazing. (Suggested by ~Amaralyn and Featured by `CookiemagiK)

Amazing bit of animation my friend. i would never be able to make something as great as this. the amount of movement and all those pixels must of taken a huge amount of time. i myself could never make something as great as this (mainly because i haven't the time, nor the patients, or the programs for that matter) as i look closer i see the rocks from the volcano going upwards and just looking at the sheer amount of pixels makes my eyes hurt. it's a job well done. i also like how the lighting stays in the same place of course that's simple with layers (thank you who ever created layers) i adore this and it's a definite favourite from me.

no bad points here, i see nothing bad about it! :iconepic-win:

Wow that's just awesome man! :D

I like the simple animation of the lava. It's clear that you gave it the simple look on purpose and not out of laziness, and it fits very well to the rest of the animation :)

The actual volcano looks very impressive. Especially the way it streches and shrinks which is just perfectly animated.

The emote looks so happy up there :giggle: Good choice on giving it the tard-expression it's very fitting. The only thing I think looks a bit odd is that it's face is moving directly up and down instead of up and down according to the roundness of the emote. Just thought I'd point that out. I know that's hard to pull off, and it probably won't be worth all the trouble for such a small thing as the overall image looks amazing anyway ^^
Good job! :aww::iconthumbplz:
