My friend, if a singing woman in the middle of the godsdammed mediterranean sprouting fin-ears and blinking sideways still makes you go "yeah, uncanny"... I have such sad news.
1. This version of the siren has the most rizz 2. She's one of the only versions of this song where she keeps her composure and just lays on the rizz thicker as the song goes on. Not that she didn't start out strong. 3. One of the only versions of this song where Odysseus is low-key scary before the cutaway to the next song. When he says, "You should come onto the ship," it's a subtle reminder that he's just as much of a danger as she is right now
@@lizzmalainey1316Epic's sirens can shapeshift and feed on memories if you hear their song correctly. Since Odysseus points out in Different Beast he and the crew blocked their ears with wax, the siren pretending to be Penelope saw his memories incorrectly and ended up making a few mistakes
I love how he manage to confuse and creep her out with his behavior on the "I'm too shy" part, I can imagine the siren thinking "why is this taking so long? Why is he resisting so much?", really good and original take on that scene that's normally presented as funny and playful.
If i recall in the story he had actually plugged his ears. hence why her calls were not effective. I believe that was the lore it's been ages since i read the odessy 😅 But yes i really like this version the best. Please continue to do more.
I love the parallels here! They're both clearly monsters, pretending to be harmless and manipulating the other. Not!Penelope realizing around the end that _SHE_ might be the one in trouble, and Odysseus is just cold and unbothered the entire time. Like, _THE ARM GRAB._ When she grabs him he just casually brushes her off, but when HE grabs her it clearly scares and confuses her. It's obvious by the end which of them is really dangerous. He's in complete control of the situation and he knows it. Also the *DEATH GLARE* he gives her when she mentions a daughter he doesn't have. He's all like, "Lady, if you're going to pretend to be my wife, *_do a better job._* " *Absolute cinema.*
I am in LOVE with the character acting and expressions in this, especially at the end with Odysseus trying to get Sirenelope onto the ship and Sirenelope trying to get him in the water, they’re both trying so hard to kill each other while pasting on those forced smiles HAHA
I love how aggressively (in many different ways) flirty these two look, and how neither of them seem to be completely buying it from the other. You can almost see the gears turning for both of them as they try and figure the other one out while also keeping up the pretense of being madly in love.
One thing I noticed here is how much Odysseus and Sironelope just dance around each other. There are so many parts where Sironelope ups up her charm or where Odysseus backs away to toy with her. The two are actively threatening each other throughout this entire song, dancing around one another, waiting for one to eventually slip up. This is also shown very clearly whenever Sironelope gets up close and personal with Odysseus, nearly climbing into the boat. In the beginning, she just does it to tauntingly kiss him, but then he pulls away. She uses her fingers to send shivers down his spine, but he doesn’t give in. Later on when she gets super pissed off that Ody isn’t giving into her song, she begins transforming back into her siren form due to prolonged shapeshifting probably. She gets super close to Odysseus in hopes of at least getting a bite in or being threatening since she now knows something’s going on, but Odysseus, foreshadowing the literal next song, leers over her like a monster. Something bigger, more dangerous than her. After this, they no longer dance around the other since Odysseus has very clearly established his uncanny dominance. Sironelope goes in for one last look, swimming up to the boat, but then Odysseus reels her in by the arm with literally only one hand and goes “You should come onto the ship,” He’s actively threatening or even warning her. To show he isn’t bluffing, her even holds on for a little bit longer than necessary, his grip tightening. Sironelope struggles against his grip. By the end, Sironelope isn’t smiling because she’s finally got Odysseus. She’s smiling due to relief, knowing she was able to get away with hardly a scratch. This human, this wild, beast,y creature, has her cornered. She is the prey and he is the predator, and Sironelope is just happy she didn’t become his meal. This huge comment shows why I adore this animation so much. There’s power demonstrated here. Two animals fighting for what they want, two creatures testing the waters, two monsters trying to show who’s stronger than the other. It’s such a unique vision compared to the simple “Odysseus tries to not die to a siren version of his wife lol” which isn’t a bad take. This one is just more creative and unique. I love it so so much!! So sorry again for such a long comment, I just had so much to say. Your artistic skill and creativity is top tier bro like you just show up one day on this platform like “I’m about to end y’all’s entire career.”
@@Duvetbox Thank you for reading my gigantic comments! Didn’t expect a reply so soon, or at all for that matter. I just adore analyzing your animations, they just give off such big mystery vibes or something. Like whenever I watch I always have to pick it apart like it’s a microbe under a microscope or something. Expect more of my insane shenanigans in the next one lmao Also thanks again for replying and reading my comments. You’re a legend for that frfr
I love how you can see both of their increasing frustrations and letting their masks slip yet they do their best to keep on those sickly sweet smiles while trying to contain their mürder with just their eyes, it's such great characterization having them both double down, odyseus acting like a charming yet somehow anxious brute and the siren a playfully impatient yet still allusive tease, both want it THEIR way, on the ship or in the water and that's just glorious how you have her shrink away and try to play it off back on her little rock right after he had a grip over her arm trying to pull her onto the deck of the ship.
I'll be honest this is one of my favorite Suffering animatics! I love how unbothered Ody is in the first half before becoming so menacing in forshadowing to Different Beast. And its sort of the opposite with siren!Pen, where in the beginning she's so uncanny and freaky with her claws and sideways blinking, before getting super caught off gaurd and confused by Ody's shift in behavior. I love how you can see her start to get irritated with him towards the end and scarmble to regain her composure when it breaks. Super amazing work!!
I love the detail of Odysseus' eyes hardening when she mentions his "daughter". A lot of animatics have him keeping his cool the whole song so it's cool to see one that hints how angry he actually is underneath.
this is fantastic 👍 love how they both unnerve/threaten each other with their body language, and i live how the siren blinked. i had to go back the first time to make sure i saw that correctly lol
I love how the siren gets progressively more creeped out by Ody instead of angered or frustrated. It really emphasizes that theme of Odysseus becoming the real monster at this point in the musical
The siren and Ody mutually harrassing each other while keeping the charade is really funny, esp that moment where the siren is looking concerned as he grabs her like lol
Ive seen a few other people say this but i genuinely appreciate how threatening odysseus looks at the end, as it goes perfectly into the line "you are a threat no longer" in different beast. He is the threat now, not the sirens.
I like the angles so much, like you get the angles where she's clearly so much further down than he is and then she just cozies up next to him because ofc siren magic lol also the expressions Odysseus has 😮 Just the tiniest hint of whats to come, already turning the dynamic on its head making **her** uncomfortable with how close he gets. Ugh so good!!!
I adored your Thunder Bringer and this one did NOT dessapoint✨ I loved when 'Posiren' (i wonder who else here knows the context of the name) made Scylla's appearance in the water waves. Also! The way Odysseus looked down right scary in the "You should come up to the ship" moment is espectacular!!💜
THE EMOTIONS AND FACES ARE JUST ABSOLUTELY AMAZING SHE LOOKS ACTUALLY SO EVIL AND WOW IT SEEMS LIKE HOW THE ACTUAL SIREN WOULD ACT SHS GETS SO ANGRY AT HIM I'M JUST WOW! This is the best suffering animatic I've seen yet number 1
This is a great animatic! I love the emphasis on the siren using a long flowy dress to hide their tail. They lay on the rock but are not able to go all the way up on the boat in order to keep the illusion! Awesome detail. As well as the side blind and the siren being confused/annoyed their magic song hasn't kicked in
Please do more, I love the face expressions, you can really tell when their feeling annoyed or like their being defensive. Like when Odysseus leans on the railing and stops her from getting to close, and when she worries about him grabbing her
I love how your Siren!Penelope slowly starts to show more and more of her actual siren traits as the song progresses. Like in the beginning she looks human enough, then as Odysseus stalls and tests her, she does her reptilian blink. When he begins to question her, her claws come out, and by the end she's tired of waiting and drops the human ears and teeth and looks almost fully like a monster.
I love the way you gave some siren details to her Penelope disguise, almost like she was being careless versus a man with whom carelessness can get you killed.
Love the passive aggressiveness they both have, I think it’s a lot more fitting considering Odysseus in this point of the show is more ruthless, I also adore how he’s more scary albeit not out right, like you can tell that he KNOWS this siren is pretending to be his wife and he won’t take it lightly, from grabbing her wrist pulling her to him showing how much of a threat he is, I love how he’s equally as a threat to her as she is to him, not to mention how unsettling it is when she blinks sideways. I LOVE THIS ANIMATIC!!!
SOME HIGHLIGHTS CAUSE I LIKE THIS ANIMATIC 0:03 He's gettin ready 0:20 he's too shy~ 0:22 twirly seductive penelope yessss 0:28 she's like: what now? 0:37 i love her 0:45 the cheeky bastard 0:55 the cheecky bastard 2.0 1:00 Establishing DOMINANCE! 1:07 WTF WAS THAT BLINK??? R U OK PENELOPE??? 1:19 i love these two specific frames 1:25 OSCAR WINNING ACTOR!!! 1:43 i love this explaining method, very cute 1:58 I love this take on the jump in the water part being terryfing actually 2:02 DRAMA QUEEN DRAMA QUEEN DRAMA QUEEN 2:09 THE CHEEKY BASTARD IS BACKKKKK 2:15 WHAT A POWER MOVE MY DUDE I really like this :)
Ugh I love your siren penelope design, with the black lips and thick eyeliner and sharp nails, its just the right balance of alluring and unnerving and the way her clothes meld seamlessly with the water and the way shes constantly twisting like a whirlpool or a waterspout really sells the idea that this is a marine predator. The body language here is also so so good, the little hand gestures throughout, as well as the way they switch from her looming and grabbing at Odysseus to HIM looming over her and grabbing her arm really makes you feel the shift in power dynamics and how unsettled the siren is by it; it makes Odysseus feel equally predatory in such a subtle but chilling way.
I think my favorite part is the immediate shift in his eyes when she says “daughter” it’s just a nice detail (idk I enjoy the emphasis on the fact that the siren slipped up and he noticed)
I especially love how predatory she is when she's telling him about Scylla and then tells him to get in the water, and ten he starts weirding her out and making her uncomfortable with his unhinged behavior. If you're covering 'Different Beast' too, I can't wait to see it!
The way he narrows his eyes when she said "come play with me and our daughter" like it must have taken so much right there to not completely lose his composure
I love how the "oh no" bit is always either a scene where the siren looks away like... "yeah... that would suck..." in an awkward way or "oh no! that would be terrible!" in a very fake kind way.
This was so good. I do think it's funny how often the siren spins and turns around in this though, considering Odysessus is reading her lips to understand her lol
I love the way you draw both Penelope and Ody, they are both scary beautiful, off putting yk? Idk how to put a nail on it but the way you animate/draw feels so amazing and so different! Amazing animatic :)
you have GOT to be one of my new favourite animators - the way you draw characters makes them feel so alive, and the way you make the 'camera' move (if that makes sense?) is so cool
I think its my favorite "suffering" animatic by now, its amazing!! I really liked how you portrayed the siren, her movements, her expressions, everything is on top!
This is probably my favorite animatic of this song! I like hep their dynamic goes back and forth with both characters trying to control the situation while keeping a charming demeanor
2:15 holy shit I love this part! This is the first time I see something like this and it’s so good? Like ??? The manic look in both of their eyes? I’m in love with this animatic.
Okay, but 2:15 and 2:16 . I know it’s not that kind of situation but I love it. Also the juxtaposition of her pretending to be Penelope when she’s actually his enemy and these interactions that could easily be between an enemy or a love is so good!
I feel like their facial expressions during these time stamps also show how much of a dangerous man he is. Instead of just faking a smile the whole time, he’s switching back and forth and you can see how much he detests her. This is also really interesting and matches the switch to the next song. I love this animatic so much!
I also love how in the end when he’s holding onto her, when he lets go his expression is saying “I have won, I am the one in control”. Then when you pan to the siren for a short time she has pure fear on her face. I love how you portrayed the emotions, actions, and reactions of Odysseus and the siren in this animatic!
I LOVE the additions of the uncanny tells on the siren, and Odysseus's tells of danger too! He is MORTIFYING and I think that you did a really good job illustrating the actual power dynamic of the scene. Also, your expressions are SO GOOD! I also REALLY really like your use of lighting and shadows to indicate tonal shift in the scene, it does you a lot of justice. Beautiful art through and through!
@@SilverBelle-dg7jk yes! Odysseus is showing us hints of a darker, more willing to harm version of himself. Compared to the rest of the series and songs, that’s mortifying, or horrifying / shocking ^^
HASHAJFA IF SIREN IS DANGER WHY HOT BEAUTIFUL LADY ahem anyway i love your art!! and how meticulous? cautious? cunning? odyssesus looks as he tries to ask for infomation while trying not to die ahshsj the way you drew their expressions is honestly chefs kith. im gay for both of them on first sight
1:07 can I just say I love this part? Like the eye blink for one, but also the fact that her lips don't move when she's saying 'you' (idk if that was intentionly) it just created this sense that she is wearing a mask
I love this for so many reasons (I wish I found this earlier lol) - Siren Penelope hides her annoyance (The little cold gaze while submerged in water) - Instead of getting extra annoyed she just gets even crazier/worried - THE SMILE BRO it's so creepy especially by the end with the wide eyes - By the end I'm pretty sure that she's scared as hell with the wide eyes but still has the smile on - Either that or she's actually pissed off by then and she just doesn't realize that her lifespan had rapidly decreased - The sideways blink which humans when evolving just forgot how to do
I just noticed this is what your second video? When I saw your thumbnail I was so excited cause I was like oh its the person who did the amazing thunder bringer animatic. I really hope you countuine to make more of these :D Any plans for any other songs. This is just so good i've watched it like 8 times. Your line work is so clean and the color really suites the vibe. I love your facial expressions the most. I love how Ody looks like mildly unhinged at points! I love it so much
Sirenelope: jump in the water so we can have a happy life with our daughter. Poseidon: 𝙔𝙊𝙐 𝙀𝙄𝙏𝙃𝙀𝙍 𝘿𝙍𝙊𝙒𝙉 𝙄𝙉 𝙏𝙃𝙀 𝙒𝘼𝙏𝙀𝙍 𝙊𝙍 𝙏𝙃𝙀 𝙒𝘼𝙏𝙀𝙍 𝘿𝙍𝙊𝙒𝙉𝙎 𝙔𝙊𝙐𝙍 𝙋𝘼𝙏𝙃𝙀𝙏𝙄𝘾 𝙄𝙎𝙇𝘼𝙉𝘿.
AHhdshakdjmsk So good, the siren is so clearly uncanny and the fact you managed to sneak in some fish elements here and there into the animation is really cool! I am eagerly awaiting to see Different Beast, you made really good buildup to it You did this song justice, I'd say
These are so good! You should do the whole series! (I know that's going to be really hard, but it would be great to see it) Either way, I love what you got down right now. It's great, keep up the good work.
0:00 right off the bat! A pretty and eye catching intro! 0:24 p-prety 0:33 bro that just looks cool, also 😳 0:53 i love how smug he looks 1:08 NAAAH that blink was freakyy, well donee 1:44 yussss this was pretty and unique 1:58 oh, oh, oh thats n i c e 2:02 babey gorl 2:16 h-hello??!😳 2:24 prebby💕 Extra point cause your character design is just sooo prete ✨ Points: 11 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
this is simultaneously so romantic and so threatening on both their parts. also. I'm. I'm kind of in love with the way you draw fingers. which is weird. but it scratches some sort of brain itch.
I love this animatic it highlights the underlying tension of the song. Amazing work it perfectly emphasizes how the siren and Odysseus are both predators trying to lure in their targets 🔥🔥🔥
I love the uncanny-ness of Siren Penelope, her perpetual smile and sideways blinks really scratch that itch of uncertainty

When he begins to question her, her claws come out, and by the end she's tired of waiting and drops the human ears and teeth and looks almost fully like a monster.
I love the way you gave some siren details to her Penelope disguise, almost like she was being careless versus a man with whom carelessness can get you killed.
Love the passive aggressiveness they both have, I think it’s a lot more fitting considering Odysseus in this point of the show is more ruthless, I also adore how he’s more scary albeit not out right, like you can tell that he KNOWS this siren is pretending to be his wife and he won’t take it lightly, from grabbing her wrist pulling her to him showing how much of a threat he is, I love how he’s equally as a threat to her as she is to him, not to mention how unsettling it is when she blinks sideways. I LOVE THIS ANIMATIC!!!
I LOVE how Odysseus is totally playing around with the siren with smart little looks down at her xD I'm in love with the way you draw fabric folds
the facial expressions are on point 🤌 Siren Penelope truly looks tired of Ody's tricks 🤌🤌
THIS IS SO GOOD i love the smug look Ody has through the whole song it's so funny, bro knows what is going on

2:15 WHAT A POWER MOVE MY DUDE
I really like this :)
Ugh I love your siren penelope design, with the black lips and thick eyeliner and sharp nails, its just the right balance of alluring and unnerving and the way her clothes meld seamlessly with the water and the way shes constantly twisting like a whirlpool or a waterspout really sells the idea that this is a marine predator. The body language here is also so so good, the little hand gestures throughout, as well as the way they switch from her looming and grabbing at Odysseus to HIM looming over her and grabbing her arm really makes you feel the shift in power dynamics and how unsettled the siren is by it; it makes Odysseus feel equally predatory in such a subtle but chilling way.
You have taken over act II in terms of anamatics, I love what I have seen from you.
I think my favorite part is the immediate shift in his eyes when she says “daughter” it’s just a nice detail (idk I enjoy the emphasis on the fact that the siren slipped up and he noticed)
I keep rewatching this bc I love your art style and how you portrayed them 😭💕
bro dropped another banger and thought we wouldn’t notice 😭🙏 this is amazing and THE SCYLLA DESIGN SNEAK?? she’s so pretty what
I especially love how predatory she is when she's telling him about Scylla and then tells him to get in the water, and ten he starts weirding her out and making her uncomfortable with his unhinged behavior. If you're covering 'Different Beast' too, I can't wait to see it!
The way he narrows his eyes when she said "come play with me and our daughter" like it must have taken so much right there to not completely lose his composure
I love how the "oh no" bit is always either a scene where the siren looks away like... "yeah... that would suck..." in an awkward way or "oh no! that would be terrible!" in a very fake kind way.
I adore how sirenelope is getting nervous at the end, and is clearly trying to regain control of the situation
Your colouring and artstyle is just so gorgeous
they way that she starts to look more and more like a siren as the song goes on as her patience starts to wear out is genius
I must give credit where credit is due. The siren's water drawing skills are quite good(1:43).
The angles, flow, body language and expressions are all PEAK HOLY SHIT
This was so good. I do think it's funny how often the siren spins and turns around in this though, considering Odysessus is reading her lips to understand her lol
I love the way you draw both Penelope and Ody, they are both scary beautiful, off putting yk? Idk how to put a nail on it but the way you animate/draw feels so amazing and so different! Amazing animatic :)
In “of course!” Sirenelope looks so caring and adorbs. Love it!
His eye squint when she says "Daughter" was an EXCELLENT touch
I also JUST noticed the ear and hand fins transforming at 0:30 You're so good
Im obsessed with the last few seconds fr, Ody making the siren uncomfortable. He looked fucking terrifying. So perfect 😭💕
you have GOT to be one of my new favourite animators - the way you draw characters makes them feel so alive, and the way you make the 'camera' move (if that makes sense?) is so cool
I think its my favorite "suffering" animatic by now, its amazing!! I really liked how you portrayed the siren, her movements, her expressions, everything is on top!
2:03 HELP THE DRAMA 😭
It’s called sass
This is probably my favorite animatic of this song! I like hep their dynamic goes back and forth with both characters trying to control the situation while keeping a charming demeanor
I love how Odysseus looks both threatening and hot.. or is that just me?
2:15 holy shit I love this part! This is the first time I see something like this and it’s so good? Like ??? The manic look in both of their eyes? I’m in love with this animatic.
Okay, but 2:15 and 2:16 . I know it’s not that kind of situation but I love it. Also the juxtaposition of her pretending to be Penelope when she’s actually his enemy and these interactions that could easily be between an enemy or a love is so good!
I feel like their facial expressions during these time stamps also show how much of a dangerous man he is. Instead of just faking a smile the whole time, he’s switching back and forth and you can see how much he detests her. This is also really interesting and matches the switch to the next song. I love this animatic so much!
I also love how in the end when he’s holding onto her, when he lets go his expression is saying “I have won, I am the one in control”. Then when you pan to the siren for a short time she has pure fear on her face. I love how you portrayed the emotions, actions, and reactions of Odysseus and the siren in this animatic!
I LOVE the additions of the uncanny tells on the siren, and Odysseus's tells of danger too! He is MORTIFYING and I think that you did a really good job illustrating the actual power dynamic of the scene. Also, your expressions are SO GOOD!
I also REALLY really like your use of lighting and shadows to indicate tonal shift in the scene, it does you a lot of justice. Beautiful art through and through!
Mortifying?
@@SilverBelle-dg7jk yes! Odysseus is showing us hints of a darker, more willing to harm version of himself. Compared to the rest of the series and songs, that’s mortifying, or horrifying / shocking ^^
HASHAJFA IF SIREN IS DANGER WHY HOT BEAUTIFUL LADY
ahem anyway i love your art!! and how meticulous? cautious? cunning? odyssesus looks as he tries to ask for infomation while trying not to die ahshsj the way you drew their expressions is honestly chefs kith. im gay for both of them on first sight
1:07 can I just say I love this part? Like the eye blink for one, but also the fact that her lips don't move when she's saying 'you' (idk if that was intentionly) it just created this sense that she is wearing a mask
I love this for so many reasons (I wish I found this earlier lol)
- Siren Penelope hides her annoyance (The little cold gaze while submerged in water)
- Instead of getting extra annoyed she just gets even crazier/worried
- THE SMILE BRO it's so creepy especially by the end with the wide eyes
- By the end I'm pretty sure that she's scared as hell with the wide eyes but still has the smile on
- Either that or she's actually pissed off by then and she just doesn't realize that her lifespan had rapidly decreased
- The sideways blink which humans when evolving just forgot how to do
YES!! So many great videos out there but yours just NAILS the tone of this song. Your expressions are perfect. Keep up the great work :D
I love the expressions you gave them ❤️ This is my fave animated version of this song 😍
I love the way you draw odysseus. He looks so cool
I just noticed this is what your second video? When I saw your thumbnail I was so excited cause I was like oh its the person who did the amazing thunder bringer animatic. I really hope you countuine to make more of these :D Any plans for any other songs. This is just so good i've watched it like 8 times. Your line work is so clean and the color really suites the vibe. I love your facial expressions the most. I love how Ody looks like mildly unhinged at points! I love it so much
I think this my favorite suffering animation! Love this so much!
The way that by the end it's *Odysseus* that's making the siren uncomfortable as opposed to the other way around is just too good!
OMG THE POWER SHIFT WHEN HE GRABBED HER ARM WAS PERFECT MWAH!! 💞💞 CHEFS KISS !
Odysseus: I’m not scared of the water
Poseidon: watch this 🌊🌊🌊🌊
Sirenelope: jump in the water so we can have a happy life with our daughter.
Poseidon: 𝙔𝙊𝙐 𝙀𝙄𝙏𝙃𝙀𝙍 𝘿𝙍𝙊𝙒𝙉 𝙄𝙉 𝙏𝙃𝙀 𝙒𝘼𝙏𝙀𝙍 𝙊𝙍 𝙏𝙃𝙀 𝙒𝘼𝙏𝙀𝙍 𝘿𝙍𝙊𝙒𝙉𝙎 𝙔𝙊𝙐𝙍 𝙋𝘼𝙏𝙃𝙀𝙏𝙄𝘾 𝙄𝙎𝙇𝘼𝙉𝘿.

So good, the siren is so clearly uncanny and the fact you managed to sneak in some fish elements here and there into the animation is really cool! I am eagerly awaiting to see Different Beast, you made really good buildup to it
You did this song justice, I'd say
Damn, only 2 animatics so far and both are complete bangers. You sir have immense talent.
These are so good! You should do the whole series! (I know that's going to be really hard, but it would be great to see it) Either way, I love what you got down right now. It's great, keep up the good work.
THANKS TO YOU IVE FALLEN IN LOVE WITH THIS SONG. Really love your version!
The sideways blinking!
Also the arm grabs from both of them shows who is the real momster here.
literally so hecking EPIC AYOO
LOVE IT, LOVE THEIR EXPRESSIONS
DONT MIND ME AS I SCREAM IN THE CORNER

Points: 11
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Loving this point system tbh
You seem to be very skillful in capturing the mood of the music and portraying within the gestures of the characters. Well done!
It’s like watching two cunning beings sparing with words and jesters!
Amazing work ❤
Love how expressive both their facial expressions were!!!
Why'd you have to go and make him attractive??? 😭😭😭 I'm obsessed!!!! He's so hooootttt😍😍
“Oh no….🙄” she wants her meal to stop yapping
this is simultaneously so romantic and so threatening on both their parts. also. I'm. I'm kind of in love with the way you draw fingers. which is weird. but it scratches some sort of brain itch.
Oh my goodness! This is the first animatic of this song that I've seen where Odysseus and "Penelope" get up close and personal. Well done!
I love this animatic it highlights the underlying tension of the song. Amazing work it perfectly emphasizes how the siren and Odysseus are both predators trying to lure in their targets 🔥🔥🔥
