I presented this in the order of how I slowly understood the trick of delivering force - first an abstract concept of impact taught by Ah Fai, then a more complicated discovery on the acceleration pattern, last back to a more abstract concept of breakdowns.
Like I’ve previously stressed, 2D animation is everything but one single approach. There’s no one rule that rules them all, but interchangeable ideas with math, or physics, or music, etc. There’s no “perfect” animation either, but what is perceived as organic and dynamic. E.g., using the Fibonacci numbers to animate didn’t bring me a perfect animation! On the other hand, a tiny change in the pattern could already make the feeling of force so much more powerful.
Not so much of a tutorial than a personal experience. I hope you find this interesting hahaha
Anonymous asked: but that youtube video only has your tumblr link in the info, it didn't say that you made the comic? are you okay with that?
oh! I hadn’t noticed, thanks for pointing that out- I’ve just put a message on their discussion board asking if they’d mind putting a link to my home website/patreon as well so hopefully they will see that- my tumblr is cool and all but I’m not sure it would be so helpful to people who want to help me :’D
maybe (if you are very polite about it because gosh what a nice video they made) you could tell them that too?

I wish, alas! I couldn’t afford it this time, there are some health related reasons too, but hopefully I will be able to go some other time, and I am going to try to get to the Manchester Con this summer on the saturday!
French privateering in the Gulf of Mexico: ended circa 1830
Conclusion: an adventuring party consisting of a Victorian gentleman thief, an Old West gunslinger, a disgraced former samurai, and an elderly French pirate is actually 100% historically plausible.
