Description It's only slightly likely that one of these guys has a slight chance of getting picked. There will be one mascot for each season, so it'd be unfair to take all four from the same person. Still, it'd be sad to see these guys split up x'D Except, I didn't read the rules so technically only Summer applies ;; u ;; I CAN KEEP AMBROSIA~

Copypasta from FT:

"First up is Ambrosia. She's spring, and though normally spring would seem pink, I wanted her to have light but vibrant colors. She's the typical bubbly female, young, maybe 14 or so, generic anime character. She has curly hair, cut short to symbolize a fresh new start, as is spring itself. Her dress is obviously based off of an ambrosia flower, which according to my source means love returned. So, it's a start of a new romance! I'd imagine her to be a romantic.

Next up is the summer guy. The flower I based him off of is the white poppy, which means sleep. Summer is a time of relaxation, which is how this guy is; always lounging and relaxing, an easy-going bum pretty much. He hates work and would much prefer resting in a hammock over anything else. His outfit was hard and I didn't intend to have him facing away, the pose just turned out like that. If he's picked I'll make a real ref. Pops has mostly white because it's a bright, cheery color, and goes with the constant light of the summer sun. He's for the people who are best at drawing guys... which I obviously am not x'D I wanted to add a shota but eh. Maybe someone else can.

Now for winter. She's about as cold as the season itself, with a big grudge against her flower-pals (LOL) because their seasons all bring out the beauty in nature, whereas hers kills plant life with snow. I used sharp contrasts of dark and light colors in accordance with the cattleya orchid (meaning mature charm, I imagine her to be a stoic character), and because winter's just a dark, dreary time. Her outfit is kinda like an ice skater's, and maybe her boots have blades on the bottoms x'D She has a thin covering over her chest, arms and legs against the cold, but she's ok with it since she /is/ winter.

Now this dweeb, autumn. I wanted to base her outfit off of dead leaves but dead leaves doesn't really mean anything in flower language, so I went with a red hibiscus, meaning delicate beauty, representing how fragile leaves get in the fall. I tried to numb it down with washed out yellows and pinks, but her color scheme is probably my least favorite in relation to her season. She's an older girl, maybe 16, who's a little more serious than Ambrosia but not as serious as Orchid. She looks bookish to me."

If you go to the end of my dA gallery you'll probably find all the art from my fanimating days!  Man I really do miss FanimeTube QwQ  I fell out of animating a long time ago... I went to college for it but I still didn't get to do much animating even then

 There was site for awhile, a recent one but its pretty much inactive.

the famine community is still large and vast thanks to places like famine update,

but it doesn't have the same type of people or family close knit community feeling that it use too.

I broke my laptop and stuff. I'm hoping to get a new tablet and Camtasia and maybe I hope to get back into animating.

I really miss FanimeTube,

I miss the art, and animation help. The conversations, the talks and chats, the art trades and persona's. I miss the people and everything.
I also miss starting up having an audience and commenters on my videis.

life's hard. i'm about to start college soon too. I don't know what I want to do with my life but I know I want to be able to draw at work....
but I'm not very talented and most of the art on my devianart is simplified bcausse I have trouble drawing digitally and today oh my god man.

not today but a few days ago people have ben telling me if you have a large laptop or computer screen your strokes are gonna be all whacky if you have a small tablet and I understand better now because my laptop and tablet make my hand cramp up so bad.

but

how have you been what have you been up to, what are you doing in life etc etc? C:

right now things are p crazy cuz I'm graduating college and moving back home so everything's happening at once.  I'm going to take a few months off and work on animation cuz I want to have a good portfolio to apply to jobs with and hopefully pitch an original show idea someday!  

also if you take good enough classes they'll help you a lot, and you've got plenty of time to decide what you want to do with your life.  just take a lot of different classes that spark your interest and know it's never too late to switch majors!

bloodypocky15 In reply to notbecca [2016-04-13 03:12:49 +0000 UTC]

do you have a youtube channel that you still do animations on?

I have no idea how to make a portfolio for school! o-o;

I guess that's good advice but I'm poor D':

I actually got a speeding ticket and I'm planning to contest it because I don't want my insurance to go up! I'm like, struggling to afford having a car lol!

do you know a good animation program or how to get paint tool sai?

sorry, I don't have a lot of animation friends.

There's keygens for Sai out there but it's been ages since I DLd it so I can't tell you any good links.  Flash is one of the industry standards, OpenToonz is free but it's p advanced, Toon Boom is another industry standard but it's complex and expensive, and maya is a 3D program that you can probably find for free somewhere (blender being an easier, free alternative).  Once you get to college you can generally use your .edu email to get stuff either for free or a huge discount (the adobe cloud is only 20 a month for every single adobe product, including flash).

what do you think of everyone using sony vegas pro?

notbecca In reply to bloodypocky15 [2016-04-14 17:49:52 +0000 UTC]

I used to use it but it's not really an animation program, it's more video editing.  Still, it gets the job done!  The upside to using an animation program is you can see the animation progress in real time versus doing the animation frames, plugging them in to the program, and THEN seeing if it looks good or not.
