Finally done with this shot, next we'll focus on two rocket launch wielding soldiers and another tank emerging from an adjacent cliff. I'll post a thumbnail sketch tomorrow. Trust me, this will all...

It's getting there. Still need to animate it coming over the crest of the cliff and then a few frames of it coming to a stop and then I can put this together with the soldier from a few posts ago. ...

Animated him into the shot, now to draw and animate the tank entering view from the background ridge after following a top left pan to its position. Let's go.

A soldier in the scene I'm currently making is based on one of many Rogue Coyote designs from the MGSV art book. Now to animate him.

Finished the background, now to animate the solider entering frame. Yeah, not much to add, really. Until next time.

Background for the next shot. The border in the lower right corner is where the shot will begin with the soldier from the previous shot approaching us into the foreground. From there the camera wil...

I know I said I was going to take a break, but I had to get this shot done. Also it seems you were all charged on the 5th but I'm guessing that's an automatic thing Patreon does because I didn't do...

I've finally animated Metal Gear for this shot. The details don't loop 100% correctly but because he's going to be so small it won't be noticed. Still need to animate dust clouds and then I'll move...

The background is essentially finished, the idea with this shot is Metal Gear will be in the distance to the left walking toward us and the camera will pan right where a tank will come rolling over...

I've decided to redo the entire shot, I wasn't happy with the last one as it just felt flat and didn't get across the sense of scale, so drawing this up will keep me busy over the weekend. Back to ...

Haven't drawn in Metal Gear yet but this is from a higher view with the edge of a cliff in the bottom right corner, may make it pan separately to differentiate it from the background. Still need to...

So I went back and redrew the background as it was far too saturated which clashed with the desaturated palette of Metal Gear itself.

Spent some time working on the background. I'm only experienced with industrial interiors so this is something new for me. I've taken inspiration from Akira Toriyama and Hasui Kawase. Now to apply ...

I've got a walk cycle down, now to add foreground elements then I'll move onto the background. This will eventually be made into a panning shot, moving from bottom to top. Better keep moving.

So I've drawn it up and now it's time to... *shudder*... animate it walking. This won't be easy but that's the point. I will get it into a walking loop and then I can move onto animating one of the...
