Scraps is taking place in a murder mystery. And we’re going to find out if he actually kills anybody. He might. But he’s not the killer tonight. Not yet anyway.
i love the way this piece is animated so much. like, almost unreasonably much.
when he’s laughing he’s still in the same pose he had when he was struggling on the stairs, his body is laid across the stair edges - not very good for grip.
but when he snaps forward he slides down a bit to sit and get a stronger footing, and you can nicely see the bend of his body when he goes in a sitting position
he needed to get into that pose because next thing he does is that amazing backflip, and he needed to have strong footing so that he could push himself off
I SWEAR TO GOD I FEEL LIKE HALF OF MY CRUSH ON DIO STEMS FROM JUST HOW DAMN WELL ANIMATED THE OVA WAS
also he has a pitch black shirt where only the highlights show his form, and it gives him a very distinct, real looking mass and depth. he has a different vibe than the other characters have bc black is used slightly differently when animated. it often has no shadows, it only has highlights, while other characters often don’t have highlights and mostly rely on shadows for depth
DIO’s body in the OVA looks like it moves in such a real way, and don’t even get me started on the god damned realistic animation weight, Polnareff also absolutely slays in that department, especially in the box scene.
He said in the stream that he’s really only able to remember the pokerap from movement, and I love how you can tell that’s exactly what he’s doing in his seat
I am Silver Tongue, I am an artist. I have many characters and you can check out my art in the art tag. I occasionally practice witchcraft though I don't do anything too complicated. I am girl 2 and don't know what else to put here.
