Final Animation!! :O

this is my final animation. I believe it is better than the original one.

I had some trouble with the flame because when I put the flame over the dragon there was a white area covering the dragon. I also tried to solve the problem using photoshop... but I was unsuccessful. So i just covered the dragon with the flame straight away.

House Promotion Animation! :D

 

This is my practise animation... I think that i will still like to make a few changes, and if there is enough time, i will fix it.

Animation!

I have started my final animation. I am going to have 'The American Dragon' breathing out - 'GO VERITAS!'

This is the picture that I am going to use
