The Ignominious Demise of Dr Pilchard the Mechanisms animatic

Oka, not a lot to be said here but there is something.
1: I for the life of me could not figure out a design for Dr. Pilchard, I got a lot of expressions and movement but not any actual characteristics, so I'm Dr Pilchard now, you're welcome. I've also decided from now on, I fully intend to Stan Lee Cameo in my animatics
2: I know I usually try to put some sort of color or shading in for my animatics, but I was using a different drawing program this time, and honestly, I just wanted this done. Some of the frames and expressions didn't quite end up how I imagined, and I omitted some harder animation posing and ideas, but it's done now
3: I recognize that the CW is a little smushed and weird in phrasing, but I thought the "Madi dies in the end" was funny
4: Editing as usual probably looks a little off? Alas, I still don't quite know what I'm doing and it shows
5: I've forgotten whatever else, it's fine

I think my favorite part of this was the little bit with Marius tuning their violin,,, whilst still being held captive. This was cute!

Whenever i listen to this song i always whisper "you bastard you leave Jonny Jr out of this" to myself

[@voidhaseyes]

MMM got into the fandom a decade and more too late, Where did Jonny Jr become canon and whats thr story behind it

[@theeemadimargarita]

@@voidhaseyes There isn't any Jonny Jr (that I know of lol), the official story on the Mechanism website actually has it as Jonny being the one person who hates the octokittens, but I thought it would be funny if there was one that did, against all odds, rub off on him💀💀
This is the only head canon I have and I cherish it as truth 😔

[@red_velvet_0w0]

my favorite part of the song has always been the little "lalalalalalala"s going on during the "life life eternity" bits. its just so silly

[@elladaniells1322]

YESSSSSS !!!!! OH I LOVE HOW U DRAW EXPRESSIONS I LOVE THIS SM!!!!

[@Alexandra-ip2by]

I like the art style!

[@gaymedievaldruid]

Love your designs!!!

[@raphael6620]

Great animation ! Maybe try to move the mouth a bit more (sometime there is one frame for litteraly a 10 second speech) so it look better. Really like your art tho !

[@theeemadimargarita]

Thank you, and I appreciate the feedback 🙏❤️/gen
I was worried there was not enough movement in the frames, but I ended up just letting it go for the sake of finishing it 😭
I do intend to remake this in the future when I get better at animatics and find my groove with it, but that will be at a much much later date (especially since my tablet is broken 💀)

[@raphael6620]

@@theeemadimargarita Oh damn, suck for your tablet, tho i'm glad you are still going to make other animations, i'll be there to watch em !
