Description I thought that Qrow's scythe would be easier to draw 50 times over. Y'know, like an idiot! 

This is the last related to RWBY I had to animate. So if anyone had any ideas then shout em out!

Who's "DB"? Are you hinting that I should make a Soul eater vs RWBY fight? Because I may already be doing that

oh wow this is wicked awesome! excellent job as always~


can i say something about your animations and what to do next with it? Its just absolutely amazing and I wish I could do as well as you (yeah I need to get to work) I get it you were VERY busy and all but for next time if your gonna do stuff like sword fighting in future animations try using stuff like this as a reference sakugabooru.com/post/show/1132… sakugabooru.com/post/show/2760… sakugabooru.com/post/show/2738… sakugabooru.com/post/show/2737… sakugabooru.com/post/show/2731… sakugabooru.com/post/show/2731… sakugabooru.com/post/show/2726… sakugabooru.com/post/show/2291… sakugabooru.com/post/show/2719… sakugabooru.com/post/show/2003… sakugabooru.com/post/show/8831… I really hope these help you~

That website along with video tutorials is pretty much how I've taught myself what little I know! It's probably the closest thing I'll get to learning from the experts!

Oh! You go to Sakugabooru too? Nice! I like going there for inspiration and motivation for my own animations~

I noticed how this animation was from a specific clip from Kill La Kill~ sakugabooru.com/post?tags=kill…

I'd love to see more from you^^

That weapon spinning around the wrist, Kill La Kill, perhaps?
It's so mesmerizing, how long did you take to do this?

I totally was thinking of Ryuko when I drew it! Although her sword has a loop around the handle so it'd be actually physically possible unlike a scythe.

As for how long? Let's say too long and leave it at that. When I started it I didn't really know what I was doing and I wasn't confident using paper to animate with so I animated the whole thing digitally, then printed out my digital frames and traced them on paper. It was an extremely stupid thing to do but I could do the whole thing much faster now.

THIS is a masterpiece! 

As for ideas, maybe Weiss using a glyph, or Blake switching between pistol and katana modes with Gambol Shroud? Something using their weapons, like with this.

I'd get round to doing those eventually. I actually have an unfinished animatic for this short little fight scene where each of them would show off their weapons that I can't finish because my laptop wouldn't be able to handle the size. 

For now though I'm more interested in things that I can turn into visual jokes like the others.

I hope you resolve the computer issue in a fashion that does not compromise your vision! 

As for comedy, you could have Team RWBY in a winter environment, with Ruby, Blake, and Weiss making a snowgrimm; but, then Yang walks up to join in, melting all the snow in her path. R, W, and B would, of course, be heart broken.

Its not really an issue. It's just that photoshop on my laptop is only powerful enough to render about 6 seconds of straight video. Although there's also the fact that it'd take me a crazy long time to finish with my current equipment and skill level. 

I was very disappointing that Roosterteeth never did a Rwby christmas thing. It seems so obvious to me. Could have easily slipped it into season 4. I can picture Ruby's heartbroken face at a melted snowman!
