Ashfur & Squirrelflight - Meant to be Mine (Rough Sketch)

[@LenisLynx]

Oh dang! It’s exciting to see you getting into Warriors content. Your stuff, as usual, is great!

[@teshamerkel]

Thank you!!! ^^ I think seeing you get more involved in the animated wc community definitely pushed me to finally give it a try. (I’m keeping a very close eye on Bugbear-it’s looking so great so far! 👀)

[@LenisLynx]

@@teshamerkel Ah yeah, that makes sense! Warriors is definitely a fandom with a huge animation side, which is great if you’re trying to get your work out there or just want to have fun making collaborative animations with other people! And hehe… thank you! I’m absolutely stoked for the MAP itself. Everyone’s done such a great job so far! (If you ever feel like applying for backup… well, I certainly wouldn’t be opposed).

[@teshamerkel]

@@LenisLynx Absolutely!!! I don’t want to commit myself even to a backup role yet because I’m afraid I wouldn’t have the time, but I’ll definitely keep that in mind for the future. ^^ Thank you!

0:07 I swear I saw Nia in there a little bit!

[@teshamerkel]

Hahaha! She definitely could’ve snuck in! That girl’s pretty emotional herself!

[@-Commit-arson-]

Ashford definitely was *that* kind of guy

[@warriorcatsaudios6304]

Hey I LOVE THIS

[@teshamerkel]

Thank you!!! :D

[@TopazToad]

This is amazing! It feels like forever since I've seen an animation from you, but it was worth the wait!

[@teshamerkel]

Aww, thank you! ;v; I have a little PMD animation that’s already finished and ready to post, so hopefully you won’t have to wait too long for the next update!

[@brushscape]

bro that last frame is everything lol. This looks amazing. You're a star

[@teshamerkel]

Thank you!!! :’D I’m super excited to animate this fully and really capture the MENACE of that last shot!

[@brushscape]

@@teshamerkel I can't wait 🤩

[@claudiothewarrior]

Great!

[@teshamerkel]

Thank you!!!

[@claudiothewarrior]

No problem!

[@willowfernn]

This is amazing! I love it! Your art is beautiful!

[@teshamerkel]

Thank you! :D

[@starxstral]

Ashfur would do this.

[@teshamerkel]

He would. Dramatic-ass cat. 😔

[@Solaris1220]

Hey are you gonna finish this?

[@teshamerkel]

It might be a while until it’s done, but I’m planning to, yeah! :3

[@Solaris1220]

@@teshamerkel ah okay. Mind if I get inspired from this? I’m trying to make an animation and I wanted to know if I can highly use this as reference.

[@teshamerkel]

@@Solaris1220 Mm…I’d really prefer you not, sorry. If you just want to use the same part of the song or something then go for it, but I don’t want anyone using these shots as direct reference or anything.

[@Solaris1220]

@@teshamerkel I understand. Thanks anyway! This was amazing btw

[@teshamerkel]

@@Solaris1220 Thank you!!! If you want to use this as a base for your own practice that’s totally fine of course, but I’d rather you not post it publicly if it’s heavily based on my staging/composition. Thank you for understanding!!!
