Bdubs our beloved // Secret Life Animatic

[@ZombieCleo]

This is amazing, well done

[@MellozHeist]

Yay! I'm glad you like them hehe :D

[@mazzy_ivy]

cleo!! hiii :D

[@dumb_m1k0o.35]

AYYYY CLEO

[@PeanutbutterHobgoblin]

OHHH IT'S CLEOOOO

[@imMittensKitten]

Cleooooooo!

[@IDrawSometimes_]

things i like about this: 1. it emphasises the family dinamic of these four. 2. the expressions are incredible 3. Grian is half the height of Cleo and Etho 4. Bdubs is half the size of Grian

[@tumblingartist]

YES!! Literally all of this!! :D

[@43_primecraft]

Now, the real question we have yet to answer is who's the oldest child, middle child, and youngest child, of BDubs, Scar, and Grian...

[@IDrawSometimes_]

@43_primecraft Bdubs is the favorite being the oldest, grian and Scar are twins, with Scar being the problem child, and grian being the bridge between them

[@Space_gremlin]

⁠@@IDrawSometimes_no I feel like Bdubs is the youngest one and Grian the oldest one who came back home and Scar is finally on his own

[@stormistik]

@anitahou6018 Scar graduated and moved out so cleo and etho adopted grian to replace him

[@Light_wcue]

As a person who loves it when people draw Bdubs chibi compared to the rest of the characters, this waddle he did here just breaks both my heart and my Brain 0:46

[@LaurenT3G]

Grian kneeling down like a benevolent knight while joining in with the "BDubs my beloved" is PERFECT. I love how you make all of these guys emote (plus I also really love how you draw Cleo)

[@darkdragoness5]

Want to know something kinda funny? Three out of four players whose beds Etho stole in the first episode ended up living with him (or in Bdubs case, Ethos base is his second home)

[@Ajlez]

Ooo, new plan for how to get better roommates, thanks! @@darkdragoness5

[@whistlehammock]

​@@darkdragoness5 couldve been mumbo too but etho sold him to lizzie for a cow

[@Dr_Mortis_SCP]

I’m obsessed with how this artist draws everyone

[@kindofcl]

Etho's tail wagging is so cute

[@xotlxoltyna]

I don't know why Etho has the ears and a tail, but it's charming and adds tons of personality to this animation

[@ชัยชนะใส่เสี้ยว]

ninja fox ? maybe

[@Fenntic]

alot in the fandom people headcannon etho as a artic fox hybrid like how you see grian with bird winds in some art.

[@bectheturtle]

Most people who do it are referencing Etho's hc s7 where he had an arctic fox pet! It continues on to this day I believe because 1. It's cute and 2. It fits well with his skin's white hair

[@nicreven]

Grian has wings because of elytra, I think Like; elytra are his whole thing xD@@Fenntic

[@RottenBen]

@@nicreven Grian has wings because he's the pesky bird.

[@somebodykares1]

The thumbnail every time I see this I for some reason expect like the "Here comes the boi" meme song

[@MellozHeist]

yep I was referencing that mem xD

[@somebodykares1]

@@MellozHeist Yeah. I just kinda expect the music to go along with it every time. Its a wonderful animation though, wonderful work :)

[@persefida]

Your Bdubs is so incredibly cute!!!!

[@MellozHeist]

hee hee He's just a little guy >:3

[@hearthearter]

@@MellozHeistdon’t let him hear you say that.

[@Messwiththehonkyougetthebonk]

@@hearthearter Don't worry, it's safe with us :)

[@Drawlistics]

You just have the perfect artstyle for adorable and wholesome animatics i love this!!

[@MellozHeist]

hehe Thank you :D

[@PlushieDoesDoodles]

Etho's little tail wags are everything to me

[@ChrisSDParker]

Cleo being built like an absolute unit is a great design choice

[@YoWhatsUpFellas]

Bdubs is so tiny its adorable.

[@catsnsuits]

“So we can stand here and watch you sleep.” 😂💀

[@OneLittleE]

This gives me warm fuzzies on the inside. Bdub's character is SO freakin cute!!

[@Nars_Media]

the "watching through the window" reminds me of when cleo talked about vivisecting rendog and selling his organs. lovely animation! especially bdubs squishy face

[@LunaiCarmen]

Oh…😟

[@bearbamboo]

WHEN WAS THAT?!

[@Nars_Media]

@@bearbamboo oh its been so long now... i think it was during one of the season 9 tours? or maybe a hermits helping hermits? they were visiting pearls base.

[@Patriciameloc]

I basically come here everyday just for the "Bdubs my beloved" and the "An enchanting setup"

[@Stitch_Thealien]

Dam! the part where they watch Bdubs sleep made me choke lmaoooo!!!!

[@arthaiser]

etho's fake task of liking bdubs too much was a genious move, he had quite a hard task to pull with the whole "not moving when someone sees you" thing, but he made it look easier because everyone was totally convinced that his task was bdubs related. i think is the only one that did the fake task thing, he did it more than once too

[@LightMoon7890]

0:32 is my favorite moment both here and in the episode

[@WaxRose]

this is one of THE BEST animatics that show the family dynamic. the designs and movement are all so spot on and I love how Grian drags Bdubs around XD

[@EllaAlternate]

I loved this moment and your animation does it such justice. Beautiful

[@cat-the-kucing2501]

SENDING THIS TO JEARELLE THE BELOVED BECAUSE I KNOW SHE WILL LOVE THIS

[@enkays_den]

0:01 just the most perfect little marshmallow ❤

[@juliusroman8616]

1:12 I love that shot of them all laughing together. It's so homely.

[@NicoWill-h4w]

Gian's "Bdubs my beloved you have returned" was so good.

[@If-loki-was-a-fox]

Bdubs disgruntled-ness at their flattery and niceness will never not be funny

[@xantho368]

I adore the way you draw Cleo, especially their 80s fitness look lol. Suuuper precious!

[@celdonclouds]

0:54 Etho peeking over the door! I love this sm

[@shay-la-vie]

Etho is TOO cute in this- the waggy tail??? Unreal, precious

[@kalosvettagaming]

Love this scene. Because he set his spawn here, it is hilarious when he respawns here yelling after being thrown into zombie pit.

[@garbageman366]

I absolutely love all of detail you put in your character designs, the clearly did an amazing job with this.

[@WilCD2559]

This is so good! I love your art style and the way you draw all of the lifers. Also the way you draw expression is on point! ❤

[@Myxxie1]

I really love your design of them. Specially Bdubs

[@ชัยชนะใส่เสี้ยว]

0 - 1:20 minute of family , heart warming moments. and the end just lol

[@rachelkubacki1642]

Perfection. I just love how he hates to be loved and complimented. So cute this whole thing.

[@bluejaywuzhere]

Etho is tall. Cleo is a little shorter than Etho, but still tall. Grian is a little shorter than average height, and then Bdubs is just short. Love this animatic

[@johnnyshortfor]

Insanely and deeply obsessed with the way you draw Cleo I’m never gonna be able to imagine her any other way now

[@Chaotic-Chaos]

I loved this, and you animated it so well

[@Weeping_Angel10]

Bdubs having the same amount of exitment when he saw the enchanter and the bedroom is so funny 😭

[@nicreven]

I don't know why etho has ears and a tail but I'm in love with it

[@loreteller.]

It's a nod to his arctic fox pet in hc7 :)

[@bagitabird]

The way you draw Cleo is absolutely EPIC

[@lucaswatts2141]

the amount of sass in cleo is perfect

[@Lalalaylyelai]

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE WAY YOU DRAW EVERYONE!!!! they're so diverse and your designs fit SOOOOO well with your artstyle!!! AAAAAAAA!!!

[@HarmonyMoonbeam024]

I was thinking this was super cute, and wholesome, and adorable, right up until that last frame with a trio of menaces, just staring poor sleepy Bdubs down through that window 😂 Edit: 0:13 ETHO’S LITTLE TAIL WAG 🥺💜

[@jacksonatticus6939]

The final frame! I'm crying

[@phantasmblue]

1. Etho fluffy tail is ajhsoehejdiej cute ❤ 2. Small Bdubs now live in my head rent free :D

[@anbu1325]

That very last frame had me in stitches!

[@mippyXrobin]

The style and personality in this is incredible! I love that you weaved the players hearts into their designs

[@Sayyble]

Hes so squishable ;-;

[@theSybil]

This is the most precious moment in the series and thank you so much to animate it

[@wutyouwant6549]

Here comes the boy hello boy

[@Closetgremlin86]

this animation is so freaking beautiful and CLEOS DESIGN IS LITERAL PERFECTION *chefs kiss*

[@am3thysts]

Not to be dramatic or anything, but I’d die for your chibi Bdubs.

[@Shortnamesareoverrated]

This is so cute! Bdubs is adorable in this❤❤

[@liamlangan6329]

“Here comes the boy!✨”

[@AlaskanNymph]

I love everyone’s designs and how different their heights are!

[@LunarIsHere_]

Every time i watch your videos i go to subscribe, realize i am already subscribed, wonder, "How am i already subscribed?", look at your videos, and see this and go, " OOOHH YEAH ITS THIS PERSON WHO MADE SOME OF MY FAVORITE ANIMATICS!"

[@hamham_1437]

rip jelly the cat

[@khaotickiri8223]

THE WAY YOU DRAW AND ANIMATE THEM AND THE EXPRESSIONS I AM OBSESSED AH

[@Hamulet]

i love all the hearts on their clothes for the life series!

[@beafbuger]

the last frame really pulled it all together

[@stayingtogether]

Cleo looks so pretty in your art style and Bdubs' sparkly eyes 😍

[@Briar_Rose_Cosplays]

I absolutely ADORE the way you’ve drawn Cleo!!!

[@CabinetClown]

You draw Cleo how I imagined the armor stand mother to always look in my head

[@TheMoonMochii]

This is so cute I love it

[@ClockworkBanana]

The way you animate my favorite (almost) married minecraft couple is amazing 😂Your stylization of everyone is incredibly well done!! I've watched this a dozen times now!

[@masonamongus]

best part has to be the enchantment set up, love it

[@TGo-n-Roscoe]

Oh i love this.

[@p-tannn]

This is adorable. I love Bdubs beautiful big anime eyes so much

[@Linkurz]

Ommmmg I miss the roomies (and BDubs) so much they were so silly

[@rosesaik]

I always look forward to your secret life animatics! I don't leave comments often but you keep knocking it out of the park!

[@FaeChangeling]

I love how Cleo looks in this!

[@LaikasFriend]

your character interpretations make me want to cry, they are so good 😭😭😭

[@LaikasFriend]

i'm going to snatch your art style

[@mirandaross4625]

Bdubs looks so squishy.

[@sanablue]

Hands down one of the best animatics I've seen. i love your art style, everything looks so pretty and funny and depicts them perfectly! I'll definitely sub to see more like this!

[@Expriexp]

0:22 i love this frame XD 1:15 (NEW HEADCANON TY MELLOZ)

[@sarahl7558]

"We need to get graw glass for the window...so we can all stand here and watch you sleep;)"

[@Olivethefey]

This is SO cute, they way you've drawn each of them is so nice to look at and makes me smile :)

[@mazzy_ivy]

what flag is that in your pfp?

[@Olivethefey]

@@mazzy_ivy It's genderfloren, a type of non-binary gender that specifies that someone is gender fluid but only between non-binary genders (aka not binary man or binary woman, so demi boy/girl are also apart of genderfloren because they are still non-binary). I think the flag is pretty so I put it in my background :)

[@mazzy_ivy]

@@Olivethefey ohhh cool! never heard of that before but it makes sense. thanks :)

[@Olivethefey]

@@mazzy_ivy no problem! Understandable that you've never heard of it, it's pretty specific. Have a nice day fren!

[@ValentinaAnimations]

Hey from one animator to another I absolutely love your work 🩷 keep it up and continue to make people happy with your work!

[@Shadow_7782]

When Bdubs realized that it wasn't a secret either was amazing

[@frogge2579]

Its cool how you drew long eyes for grian without it looking totally soulless

[@TheWillow_Treee]

Beautiful Melloz! :D

[@alfacinha9609]

THE HEIGHT DIFFERENCE LOL

[@normanleemer2313]

For anyone wondering, this part is around the 31:00 mark in cleo's video!

[@knights4eva981]

This is absolutely incredible.

[@chase9450]

i love that when complimented, bdubs threatens to puke

[@CW-qw9nx]

I love all of this ( and Grain cannot escape being short)

[@johndelaura5303]

Great job can't wait for the next life series animation video.

[@samathekittycat]

Bdubs OUR beloved

[@screamy_]

1:10 was PERFECT i love this i love it so much

[@LiliannEnder]

Convert to Bdubs appreciation-ism

[@EthaDaDaemon]

0:12 The tail wags, I cant 🥺🥺🥺

[@kironase]

I'm so happy someone made an animatic about this moment, it's one of my favorite bits from SL! Your artstyle is so good omg bdubs my beloved looks soooo cute!! ❤ amazing work!

[@siennapenrose8764]

“So we can all stand here and watch you sleep” 🤣

[@YourFavouriteS1]

Etho and Grian being so happy over Bdubs and then Cleo 😂 The details of the characters with Cleo leaning on Etho while Grian shows Bdubs around just gives the most parent vibes ever❤ You design characters so amazing and I adore the animatic in every way, keep going and take those breaks you need or want! ❤🌺⚔ (Also! You should do an animatic based on when Bdubs wanted to be Cleo's favorite son! I don't know if you take recommendations or if this is rude, I'm sorry-)

[@lovepuppy2242]

your art style is so preciousss~!!!!!!!! It really shows off cutesy Bdubs so well i love it

[@rowan_like_the_tree]

I'm getting so much cuteness aggression from this well done

[@Fenntic]

omfg your style is sooop cute i love it!

[@aatpg-vx5xm]

The way you have it so that the first frame of the animatic is the same as the thumbnail (but the thumbnail is a colored version) is a cool touch, it gives a neat effect when I go to click on the video

[@haandotexe]

i love ALL the little details of your art style!!! I can't think of any way to compliment it other than saying that im consuming it whole
