Description
"Have you ever screwed up? With a friend, I mean."
"Yes."
"How much?"
"...I lost a great friend."
"Did they ever forgive you?"
"I don't know. I hope so. I never had the time to ask. I... screwed up a lot."
Created for FeatherySpirit . Features Cursive and Green Guard . The two ponies have been angry at each other for a long time, and both would like to see the feud end, but Cursive gets over his pride first and admits his mistake. Will Green forgive him?
TechnicalStill image created with inkscape .
The animations were made and exported with aniGen .
Exported with Adasek's SVGRender .
More paralaxing on Green's face, and obviously a great deal of character interpretation from the source material. Pre-fourth generation ponies have awesome hair, but I still couldn't bear giving Cursive a mullet. Also, I finally got to use a lot of mouths I haven't yet - like "annoyed" and "pouting". Plus, I fixed about twenty aniGen bugs on the way.
You too can make animations with AniGen !

Aww, cute!
I wish I could animate. I know close to nothing in how to do it, other than a quick class way back in high school where I used a software program called FireWorks and had to draw frame by frame...

Well, you can always learn. I learned all I know about animation on my own, just by trying stuff out.

Oooh, lucky! I wish I had the talent to learn that way. I'm a hands-on learner, and usually need someone with experience to point things out, otherwise I get frustrated at myself easily....

You can always channel that frustration to better yourself. Whenever you feel angry at yourself because of something, you also have an obvious target for improvement. It's not a talent. More of a mindset.

I don't really think Cursive's nostrils should move at all, but other than that, nice little animation.

Hm. I might look into that. This comes from a fairly old set of mouth shapes I made, and the nose might be a bit off. It should move a little, but you're definitely right that the difference is kinda too large.

Such is life. Some things might be beyond repair. But thankfully, some aren't. Don't give up.

Very well animated, though I think the pony on the left is just going "Yeah, uh-huh, yup, indeed, yup." As in not paying attention to what the male is saying XD

She's angry at him, but she's listening. He obviously gets her attention with something he says. And then she's angry some more, maybe at herself.

I know, but you can't help but make thoughts when there is no audio. Still it is really nice either way!

well I assume you draw all the animation too, which takes allot of practice especially with how good the drawing are too~

That's for everyone to decide. I have my own version, sure, but I think it's better if people make their own.

This turned out perfectly, thank you so much! I really love it, I think it has to be one of my favorite commissions I've ever ordered, it's absolutely beautiful.
