Horse - Tiger Morph

The first upload of this got cut short, only by about half a second but i'm very picky, so i re-uploaded.

Just a short thing i was working on inbetween other animations. The main thing with this was so i could figure out how to shade in After Effects.

I know there are a few problems with it, the front right leg moves wierdly when it changes, shading for the horse is a bit bright and messes up near the start, the strips on the tiger, especially on the tail, move about a lot, and no shadows. I dont intend to working on this anymore or fix any of these mistakes.

All frames drawn in The GIMP, shaded using After Effects.

this is absolutely epic! have you heard of the book war horse?

[DarkmaneTheWerewolf]

Yes, it was one of my favorite books as a child and i still enjoy reading it occasionally.

[spidereine]

ah great! the reason I'm asking is because I've just started a project to create an animated fan-made trailer of war horse, and I was wondering if you'd be interesting in helping? it's nothing serious, just something to do for fun, so don't feel under pressure to contribute from me, but if you're interested...

[DarkmaneTheWerewolf]

Sure, i'd be happy to help you. I'm not very good at animating people though, i'm best at animals.

[spidereine]

okay, that's fine, whatever you're happy with :) do you have a deviantART page?

[DarkmaneTheWerewolf]

[shadowdrayktransform]

AMAZING!!! I love how the morphing seems so real and natural. I have a character who is half dragon and he can transform into a dragon and now I really want to make him transform like that!

@PonyLova777 If you do animations on paint, make a frame, then save it, then select the outline colour and then right select red then go onto the eraser tool and while holding down the right click on your mouse move the eraser over the outline. Don't click though. And then draw in black over the old one and do the next frame and do the same as earlier but red as first colour and white as second and save as the frame etc. Long but I hope this helps.
