Ever since The Owl House finale I wanted to update this little scene animation and I finally found the time too! The animation itself is super simple but I still love how cute it is!
Brief description recommended and taken directly from anistarrose:
A short looping animation of the Collector and King sleeping on the couch of the Owl House, looking peaceful and breathing slowly. The Collector is holding François with them under their blanket, and King is curled up around a doll of the Collector. Balls of golden light float all around them.
Final Chef - extended (but not yet final) cut. Real-time ambiance added - straight from the shop on a busy doomsday brunch hour.
The Witness continues to serve his famous DimSum along with a side of warlock wasabi sushi and titan milk tea. (Sorry no hunter yet)
Here is an example of how I approach backgrounds for my animations.
Clip Studio Paint has a feature where you can display a 3D figure in any pose and perspective. I simply drop the figure onto the canvas and turn on 'show ruler' from the layer.
Once 'show ruler' is checked and you're happy with the perspective, draw the lines and use them as a guide to paint the backgrounds.
I also like using photographs that I took of buildings and public domain images, like this cityscape, to help add texture to the environments.
Though, I still prefer to create my backgrounds from scratch and only like to rely on photos for textures and a sense of the uncanny.
