    just thought I’d post something while im trying to finish the comic i talked about by next week…

    i was working on this turnaround animation a while back but didn’t get around to finishing it. this is based on a great tutorial by manu mercurial. it’s kind of jankey and needs fixing on some parts (rotation is off, etc.), but its kind of neat to watch it turn around and around, right?

    if you make your character symmetric, you only need 12 frames for 1 second because you can mirror flip the second half. but i based it off of Saki’s character art which is asymmetric, so it needs 24 frames x.x

      Neat! I took Jade to 255 as my first character (easy Another Dungeon, guaranteed pain setter…:-), then just couldn’t stomach Aldo’s AD (those horns blare too loud, I had to do it muted and that takes out half the fun; also I dread going to Unigan for all those CQs & quests for the same reason), so was very happy to abandon that to switch to Clarte’s ADs b/c of the fantastic music & artwork, but it was also annoying b/c of all the twists & turns in them, nowhere near as fast a speed-run as Jade’s. Now I’m halfway through farming for Nona, while again combining grinding for gear with her Shadow.

      But when I’m finished with Nona, I’m thinking to return to the original IDA music & art that so sealed my interest in this game. It’s just gorgeous… I doubt having her at 255 would do anything at all for me - ES Saki when?:-P - but it would be a fun ride and that’s what matters :-D.

        ah yea, the IDA school music’s so fun and upbeat! i chose Aldo for maxing his light for the bonus damage. but if you already have a few maxed out characters, why not? :)
