I figured I should cover my bases and make something for every season, and this came about.

I feel I improved so much over the course of this project. Turns out drawing 489 pictures in quick succession can do something to a person. Who knew?

I definitely still lack skills in some aspects, but I think I make up for that with sheer insanity

And yes, this doubles as a desert duo animatic

  • Having Grian wear his jumper around his neck as a cape (cuz desert and overheating) is a pretty neat character design choice :D

    So I was trying to figure out how to handle Grians wings to keep it consistent with my previous stuff, and I figured that since I was adding shading, I could have the wings appear in the shadow. Only recently did I realize that that is exactly what this cover did to reference the nightcore version of the song. Its amazing how ideas work like this

    1:11 bro this part got me cackling 😭- Like Grian’s just like “ No not again. “ and Scar’s just standing there like “ So if you give me your Diamond- “ And I love i

    This song also goes so well with Eyes and Ears/Watcher Lore. G becoming a watcher, then leaving. Still being part of the war, "Even if Heaven won't take me back," referencing how, in Eyes and Ears, G realized what the watchers were about, and,"Knowing what we're worth fighting for." Finally fighting back from inside the system. Edit: How did I only just register that it is, "Before you start the war, you should know what your fighting for!"??! It is even closer than I thought initially!

    2018 me and current me are battling over what to hyperfocus over
  • @PerryRata
    THE WARNING IM GIGGLING- “Scar shirtless” IS SO FREAKING FUNNY Also your art IS SO SILLLYYYY❤❤❤❤ GREAT JOB!! I can tell you put a lot of work into this! :D
  • @RiverSwamps
    This is absolutely beautiful! I love the symbolize of showing Grian’s wings in every shadow he casts. Also the fighting turning to dancing was just chefs kiss
  • THIS IS EPIC!!! I love the way the battle of their red desert was animated, ren and Grian fighting.. But the part that blew me away was at 3:16 with Grian and Scar chasing out of the cactus ring, where the turn around of them dancing (?) transitioned into a punch. That motion of the camera turning flowing into a punch was just amazing. I had to pause to process how cool it was
  • @Koylis
    I never considered this song with Grian but it goes pefectly!!! this was amazing, good job!!!
  • @ArcherFox7
    This was so good!! The lyric timing was amazing. When it says “I’ll put away my wings” and grian’s wings fold away!! Amazing job 💚💛❤️
  • @Cassrassi
    This is gorgeous! Your transitions were smooth and you manage to fit in so many important parts I haven't seen in any other animatics. Your dedication and hard work is evident, and I love your art style.
  • This is amazing! The idea that Grian's wings are visible in his shadow still is so cool, and I really liked the flashbacks to them dancing instead of fighting in the cactus ring, and how Grian's wings appeared at the end to cover Scar
  • @Life_wolf35
    This was so good! I can tell that you worked hard on it. Full colour this is amazing 🤩 (the fight scenes were my favourite 👍)
  • @Heheduckie
    OMG this is amazing! Well done! Keep up the good work!
  • This is fantastic! Great song choice, and I absolutely love your character designs and the style of the animation. Plus it was so nice seeing all the character moments -- you clearly really thought through what you included and it does such a lovely job of illustrating the arc of their story in 3rd Life. The fighting / dancing / fighting moment in the cactus ring was perfection, my poor heart.
  • @RileyKobs
    I’m in love! This is amazing Mizzle! And the song choice is perfect!
  • @mansa1212
    Oh hell yeah this looks so good!! I love the different camera movements/perspective change and the way you portrayed all the moments! The compositions in some of the shots are also super good I love how you can tell the clear focus of the shots and the animation itself is well done! ^^ Great job AND ALL COLORED TOO ITS SO MUCH WORK!
  • @marsisscared
    hooooly crap the cut between the fighting in dancing is so smooth, great job
