OH WHAT A WORLD || The Magnus Archives Animatic ~ MAG 160

Holy shizzle, that genuinely took 50 hours. Like, that's a lot of time~
This is my first fully colored project with backgrounds and everything since 4 years ago. I remember being so frustrated when that last project wasn't coming out the way I pictured it in my head no matter how much time I spent on it. I'm overjoyed to say that this animatic looks so much more like the way I picture it in my head. If you're an artist reading this, be patient with yourself, and things will slowly get a little less crappy :)
ANYways it was an animatic that got me into the Magnus Archives, so as I finally found the courage to finish the series (I just couldn't stand the thought of it being over), I wanted to do an animatic of my favorite part in the entire podcast.
But I guess I don't have to be too upset about finishing the podcast because Rusty Quill is making Magnus Archives! I'm hyped, and I genuinely wish them the best of luck cause it's going to be hard to top that finale.
That's it for now!

Yesterday I was listening to this song and my boyfriend was watching this animatic I thought the line "straight men, oh, what a world we live in" was very funny and I sent the song to him saying "Straight men Oh, what a world we live in" To him. I apparently sent it right when this part of the song came in the animatic and I think it is very funny

[@chrissy1388]

ah yes, such straight men lmao
