This was a commission requested by Nick Wozniak aka @norkwoz
I really went overboard with this as he only requested a single stage diorama and I ended up making a five-stage one which spanned countless layers, 44 different PSD files, 709 frames of animation and tweens.
Nick wanted to have a couple of the enemies from the Explodatorium featured in the diorama so I just went and threw in everything you could encounter in the whole thing (besides the miniboss). As much as possible, I also tried to incorporate the majority of Plague Knight and Shovel Knight’s arsenal into the whole sequence. To top it off, I made sure that it loops together nicely enough.
The full looping animation wouldn’t fit Tumblr’s gif size limit so I had to break the whole thing into the five stages.If you want to see the full loop, you can view it here.
Pretty sure those aren’t rabbit tracks. I think this was a bird shuffling through the snow, and then it made wing impressions when it took off. If it was an eagle, or something, that got a rabbit, there would be more disturbed snow.
DEFINITELY not rabbit tracks. The tracks wouldn’t be linked since rabbits hop not walk and the tracks of the fore and hind legs are quite distinctive. This is what rabbit tracks in snow look like
No bunnies were harmed in the making of above post
I’m reblogging just for the absolutely beautiful imprint of feathers
And also: definitely a takeoff of a bird. The distal primary feathers (toward the tip of the wing) tend to separate, so the gap between feathers would be wider than more proximal feathers. In the picture, the feathers facing the undistrubed snow are further apart, which means the bird is facing forward when the wing imprinted in the snow.
Went to Fanboy Expo last weekend, in Knoxville, on the express purpose of meeting Michael Bell and getting him to sign my 2′ x 4′ Soul Reaver poster I managed to snag off Ebay a few years ago. He’s a pretty awesome dude to talk to. I tried to keep my Fangirl in check.
I just watched a documentary about Madagascar wild life and I’d like to know if someone could recommend a good - preferably academic - book on flora and fauna in Madagascar? Would be real awesome if you could let me know!! \ (^-^)/ thx
