Artist's Comments

Yes, I went back and completely revamped my found a peanut. In fact, the only thing that is the same from the first one is the peanut. :p I have been checking out a lot of emotes and I realized my first attempt at this looked just like that...a first attempt. ;) So, I decided I would give it another go, sprucing up Heaven and Hell a bit, doing my first ever DOUBLE emote in one setting, and just making the main emote a little more expressive and easy to see. Hopefully, this is a huge improvement. If not, I have wasted a lot of time...and enjoyed it. Critique and advise if welcomed greatly!

Frames: 276( +9)=285
Time: About 7 hours and another half
Seeing a bit of mild emote violence: ....Priceless. :D

Incase anyone wants to compare, this is my first attempt: [link]

*edit* I have made the dream of hell a bit a bigger, hopefully it can be better seen. Especially since making it any bigger requires me to redo all of that part all over. :p Thanks to ^livius for taking the time to suggest the change. :D Please, still enjoy!

*edit2* Holy crapola. A Daily Deviation? Little ol' me? What a wonderful surprise! :boogie: I have to send out a MASSIVE thanks to ~RanzyTm for suggesting it. He was the first comment and everything. You are a sweetheart, dude, and I thank you again, so much! Also, ^livius, thank you for featuring it! :giggle: It now really is my most perfect emote. ;) To everyone comment and faving, THANK YOU! I plan on getting to each of you....but for now, I say thanks here! :boogie:

:faint:

Daily Deviation

Given 2007-02-04

:FoundaPeanut: v2 by *SparklyDest is a gorgeously detailed, snappily-paced little pantomime of one of the most infectious songs ever written. It's also a fine example of how dramatically an artist can improve upon her earlier work after she's got more experience under her belt. (Suggested by ~RanzyTm and Featured by `livius)

It's beautiful, Sparkly, and most definitely an improvement on the original (which was already awesome, especially for a relatively new emoticonist).

The one element I preferred in the original was the dream image of the flames. It was a wider view so you could distinguish the flames better. Any chance you could snag that bit and add it into this one?

You know, I contemplated doing that with this one....and I am not really sure why I didn't. :p It would only add another five frames or so.....I think I shall be editing. :D

Thank you for the wonderful comment and doubly so for the fav! :boogie: I like the think the first was good for my first big project...but I love this version sooo much better. ;) Thanks again!

What's five more frames when you're already so close to 300, am I right? :D I'm delighted you're up for editing that piece back in. It'll make this emote complete perfection.

On another note, I've been singing the song in my head pretty much non-stop since I commented. :giggle:

I wanted critiqued....and you were willing to. ;) That, and I did feel a little odd with small dream. And I want complete perfection!! :D And this emote has a way of making you sing that song. :giggle:

I had to work hard to find a little something to critique, too. :D

:giggle: Yay for there not being much! I added the part, but I am not sure it is what you were suggesting. To get the old flame, I would need to rework all the frames with the dream. I just made the last hell frame smaller....lemme know what you think!
