madam, what year is this?

Nerds

It's out! Beware of the spoilers for War Room 2 Transference! This project took me about a week and 120 drawings to complete. After I collected the drawings together I kinda figured out there were things that I could have done differently but I really love this draft. Super proud of finishing it. Animatics are always very exhausting to make because you need to think about so many things at once and you have to relisten to the material to see the image in your head and then decently transfer it into an image. It's also trickier when it isn't a music video but the characters just having a conversation. But surprisingly it wasn't a huge problem with this scene in particular because it was written and acted so dynamically. I think War Room 2 turned out a very solid boxset and switched my brain into "thinking about Gallifrey" mode! Big cheers to @fiotrethewey for writing this scene and supporting this project in progress. Cheers to Sean Carlsen for playing this scene so heart wrechingly! Under the cut I'll post the storyboards with some notes:

literally can't stop thinking about "you're thinking with your hearts and not your head" bc. it's such a DELICIOUS role reversal. narvin always being the level-headed one and thinking things through before acting n trying to get leela to act rationally rather than emotionally. and now SHE'S the level-headed one trying to get HIM to act rationally rather than emotionally. just. frothing at the mouth about it ;-;

Quick sketch of Leela and Narvin

Commission for @fioiles Was awesome to draw Leela and Narvin from Sophie's War Room episode!

Plus bonus sketches of the ideas for this pic:

"Let me look at you! It is you, not a trick?" I loved writing these two. Decided I should try and draw them how I imagined the scene going. I tried! [Alt text: Two people, Leela and Narvin staring at each other in disbelief, Narvin is in a large leather jacket his hands on either side of her face. Leela is wearing Gallifreyian armour of red and gold. They are surrounded by mist, and words unreadable are in the mist. On Leela's left it says "Narvin!" on Narvin's right it says "Leela!" ]

literally cannot stop thinking about "don't let go of my hand" in the context of previous seasons' "take my hand"

Day 6: Reunion after a long really long break.

Imagine them suddenly meeting after years and years of the Time War. This will probably never happen in the series, but well, I’ve tried to imagine how would it be.

Kinda my first attempt to animate something properly more or less

Together? Together!

COULD NOT HAVE ASKED FOR A BETTER REUNION EPISODE TBH that was so raw and i got slapped in the fact so many times i loved it

OK BUT THIS SCENE IS SO FUNNY I COULDN'T

every interaction between leela and narvin has me like 🥺🥺🥺🥺
