Artist's Comments

So, there I was, having just finished my last emote, and I was thinking "boy, I really worked my ass off on that one, I should do one of the simpler ideas I had." So, I booted up Photoshop, and started working on this idea with some sort of lumberjack getting repeatedly crushed by the trees. And when I thought "simple", booooooy was I WRONG!!

This "little" emote proved to be one of the most painstaking emotes I've ever made. I hadn't realised that I'd have to make every single part of the falling tree separately, also changing the lighting on the log as it falls through the light comming from above, so to say. To say the least, I'm surprised it ended up even half as good as I originally thought it would be. :faint:

Oh, and I usually try to explain a bit of what's going on in the emote, but today... I'm just gonna provide some raw statistics instead:

Animation Frames: 750 (~!!)
Frame Delay: 0,07 sec
Total Layers Used: 129 :faint:
Time Spent: I don't even want to imagine... :|


So... I really, really hope you enjoy it. :lol:
