HOW I ANIMATE G5 PONIES

THE TUTORIAL VIDEO IS HERE!! I've tried sharing my knowledge in this video the best I can, and I hope it helps you animate! This took me weeks to finish because I'm really bad at explaining things, but I'm glad it's done. I hope this tutorial can help others who want to animate ponies for the first time using Blender!

The timestamps is in the description!

[@punnycomixltd8172]

could you do one with your 2d animations or do you make frame by frame?

[@Arthad]

It brings me so much joy to know that just anyone could try and animate ponies just like they look in the show. It is especially valuable now that we're not getting any more Make Your Mark. You're a treasure

[@hah388]

Bro has the ability to animate a whole god damn episode 💀💀

[@PlayerUzU]

Wow, I'm in no animator (3D or 2D), but I always had the thought that 3D animation is way easier than 2D, now I see that's not really like that, both seem like a pain to do, keep the good work!

[@user-go5ri2yg5f]

Want to create something? 3D is way easier. Want to create something that looks great? 3D is hell.

[@PlayerUzU]

@@user-go5ri2yg5f lmao, I can see that, we have a lot of examples of this in the anime world

[@robinjacks4906]

With this knowledge, maybe I'd be able to 3D animate my first animatic if I wanted to.

[@JRAUSports]

Looks great man, you can animate better than a decent amount of actual G5 animators, keep doing great work man!

[@TheCommenterDragon]

The way you animated G5 ponies is ever so incredible Maka, And it's admirable how much time and effort you put into bringing these models to life!

[@CintagonIsUpset]

I am amazed that you and so many people do stuff like this for fun, or hell in some cases for a living! Keep up the good work and please keep giving us pony shitposts

[@CintagonIsUpset]

You have a great sense of humor, or mine is broken. Or both!

[@Dazzlingnova96]

Thank you. I’ll use your models to help make my new story movie I’m going to make. I’ll put everything in my description of your videos and channel. Thank you for making Misty’s Key a reality!

[@LATAM_EQUINOX]

You... Just gave me the headstart that i needed🥺 Thats it, ill make my own pony Game! i'll make use of the rigs and bones but create my own models from scratch, the manemerge animations will come in handy too, just you wait... Ill make it happen👍

[@christophertancinco3052]

Yay, I can get to see how you make these videos.

[@noodlespunkin]

Hasbro should've just hired Makaryo to help make the 'Make Your Mark' chapters

[@DiabloOfGod]

ITS AMAZING, THANKS FOR SHARING THIS WITH THE WORLD

[@inkuhana]

This is super helpful, thank you Makaryo!

[@superrloca]

I was able to make the characters appear in blender, they were beautiful!! Although sadly the colors of the characters were lost and all were completely purple, it is still not something that cannot be fixed, it is just to repaint them with their corresponding colors and that's it, it is much easier than making them from scratch so thank you very much!! ❤❤❤

[@Makakaka]

there is an option to find the missing textures. You can go to File, then External Data, and select Find Missing Files. Go to Sunny (any kind of model) folder and click the texture folder.

[@superrloca]

@@Makakaka Well I'll try that to see if I get the textures, for now I only have the Sparky textures

[@superrloca]

​@@MakakakaI've been able to fix it 😁😁😁

Funny how im just learning blender as a hobby just to animate some ponies cuz why not.

[@Edward256]

Personally I start with the lip-syncing. It is easier to do so when the body isn't moving around. Then I move the body, then go back and adjust the facial expressions based on from which angle the face is viewed from.

[@TheLifeofAthenaPlayz]

Can you only use computer?

[@Makakaka]

only computer

[@Secret_Moon]

I just wish there were G4 models.

[@Someguy6571]

I mean it probably wouldn't TOO difficult to import a few of the G4 ponies into the G5 models. They already had one for Twilight, so its not a far stretch for the others.

[@Gottobun_Kimetsu5172]

Good

[@miltoncondorielmilhouse7007]

cool

[@kidkratoski3778]

"Burhp"..... ?

[@KenDoStudios]

How to dm then?

[@user-gz9kp7pi1t]

Hay! I had a big question? Can you make a video of where princess twilight sparckle sacrifices her immortality and losses her wings? Can it be drama pleaaase! I would love to see your animation beauty! I know this is much and random- but I don't know where to find another youtuber with good animation like yours!

[@Edward256]

You want him to do a copy of Remembrance by Argodaemon?

[@user-gz9kp7pi1t]

@@Edward256 OH NO NO- I was meaning in a different way. Lol I know remembrance is already made but I havnt seen other people make twilight loose her wings in any other way. You know?

Pone (I wanna make pones from the ground up)

[@nebulaofficialalt]

don't translate that 😅

[@L4mv0x]

Okay so, I run into a bit of a problem, whenever I try to render an animation in cycles and activate the denoiser the renders look off, the hair colors get all messed up and it looks inconsistent throught out no matter which denoiser option I use (OpenImage or Optix) Is there a way I can avoid that?

[@galaxy_mooncat779]

How do you import the models in blender?

[@Makakaka]

Append, select the model and click collection and select the model name.

[@galaxy_mooncat779]

@@Makakaka what does append mean?

[@Edward256]

@@galaxy_mooncat779 Look in the File menu.

[@nebulaofficialalt]

​@@galaxy_mooncat779 it means to put another model in the current opened model. look closely at the video when he puts sunny in the scene 😊

[@k-bone2506]

I just opened the sunny IK model and there's no textures is there a way around this?

You making it hard to find excuses not to try animation...

Did you watch the video or did I forget something to include in the video
