Poke the Goat ▫️ Hermitcraft (Docm77 and Grian) Animatic

[@mikeyvoid007]

My favourite part is doc asking if he is bored. He just looks like my father at me when I tried to remove the tiles from our bathroom when I was three.

[@Rae_Everrin]

got to do something when your bored

[@geekwithapen1398]

Now i need someone o draw this but it's Doc and Grian

[@River-ww5zt]

It's his first reaction too like, 'oh grian is doing something. He's probably bored, gotta make sure he- oh he's messing with my dragon.'

[@Squish_Squash]

It's the fact that Grian was so confident he'd get Doc to fire charged creepers at his base if he pretended to shoot at the dragon and then Doc did EXACTLY that is part of what makes this entire thing just priceless

[@kayleighlehrman9566]

Grian: calls bluff Most hermits: nothing Doc: 😎

[@killerbee1050]

And you know what makes it funnier is that the creator of this animation made it look like doc was smug about the charges creepers

[@killerbee1050]

Charged

[@OfSiwa]

I love all the expression in Grian's eyes after Doc shoots the first creeper 😂

[@animate_corvid]

0:41 "...are you bored again?!?" THIS MADE BE CACKLE SO HARD THE FACE

[@echothefreak9396]

See this is why Doc is my favorite. He’s literally an evil overlord with a pet dragon and WILL blast charged creepers at you if you dare touch it

[@jimmyg3835]

and he says he is not evil

[@nikkiofthevalley]

I mean, it's warranted. Damaging the dragon in its current state will cause it to switch back to how it works in the End, which is to charge the player. This will obliterate anything in the dragon's path.

[@thomasfplm]

Doc isn't evil, he just tend to overreact a bit.

[@JacksbacKK]

Well if you put it that way....

[@camtankerous]

I love the way grian quickly goes from playing the victim with his hand on his forehead to genuinely terrified 😂 Also the single frame with the blurry creeper is KILLING me its so good, it looks so much like doc

[@camtankerous]

Also grians little expressions as he shoots at the dragon and taunts doc, he looks soo proud of himself its perfect ahdnbshxjs

[@persefida]

Hehe, I'm glad you enjoyed it C:

[@egg_trainer1250]

i love your Alador pic! and if you spell is with an I (like this alidor) it means greatest man in Nigeria!

[@miningspartin]

I love their friendship, Doc's first thought was to ask if Grian was bored again. Love your art style

[@persefida]

Haha yes xD Thank you!

[@Jr837_]

Wonder what "bored _again_ " implies lol

[@abugidaiguess]

@@Jr837_ i mean Grian has a tendency to start wars for the fun of it, his boredom will probably be the death of us all

[@Jr837_]

@@abugidaiguess lol, I wonder how many timelines in the hermit-multiverse (is that the name?) were destroyed just because he didnt have anything better to do

[@greatazuredragon]

@@Jr837_ The answer is probably: Yes.

[@megaawesomesupreme]

Watching this from Grian's Perspective gave me a heart attack swear to gods. Because, for those who don't know, damaging the dragon will "wake it up" and cause it to track you and destroy everything in its path

[@minecraftaeyro3812]

[@annapotat0987]

oh i didnt think it would be that severe

[@megaawesomesupreme]

@@annapotat0987 Yeah, basically it's in an AI-less state right now. If it takes damage in the overworld it'll move just like it does in the Dragon Fight in The End.

[@evanmartin530]

@@megaawesomesupreme Ok but where will it go? If the AI is code to go around in a circle or something in the end, would it just run wild every where in the overworld?

The little dramatic hand to the head when he's like "oh nooo-" was so great. Love this!

Yes it was Jaded.

@@biromanticchicken446 yep and we love him for that

[@fungusbungus2378]

I love how Doc looks so tired when dealing with Grian’s shit (who wouldn’t be honestly), but then he looks so pleased with himself when he’s launching the charged creepers at his base. The mischief brings him back. Also love Grian and Doc have different elytra designs, very cute. And yet again, the iconic Grian smirk! I’m glad it’s made a reappearance in all its smug glory.

[@persefida]

Glad you like it!! :D

[@spear-throw-legacy]

"... tired when dealing with Grian's shit..." Grian: Excuse me?

[@Spectralyzed]

Gotta love how Grian's first instinct is not to ask Doc for a Charged Creeper, but rather make him upset enough to shoot one over in retaliation.

[@ITZHI5]

LOL, I just love Grian’s expression when he’s looking at the crossbow mischievously 😂 another great animation 👍

[@persefida]

Hehe, thank you c:

[@ITZHI5]

@@persefida no problemo :)

[@MechaMeister6511]

That “Dude are you bored again?” Sounds so genuine like it’s not the first time Grian has just come to Doc to just mess with his stuff. I know he’s a prankster but the annoyance and yet playful banter of it was so genuine and hilarious.

[@pretzelcat581]

I like how Grian’s elytra is bird wings and Doc’s is a jet pack, it’s just subtly hinting at Doc’s mechanical aesthetic Wow I’ve never had 1k likes on a comment, thanks :)

[@sluperslonic8624]

and i like where it has proper propellers rather then mumbos which is way more futuristic

[@BeeDaWorker]

Ok tbh thats an idea i might want to use whenever im designing mc characters

[@giovannirocket9954]

I do kind of want to see what the wings of all the hermits may look like in this art style, like Pearl's could be upside down because Australia, Shashwami (Xsuma) could either be Bee wings or more like Buzz Lightyear wings because Doomguy, Bdubs' could be just his cloak of moss extended, and so on.

[@ThatSkiFreak]

Pretty much all of the stylization of the characters in these is very well done.

[@apersonwhohasnothing]

@@giovannirocket9954 Now I wonder how in the world upside-down wings would look?

[@landanmoore8713]

I like how you give everyone different elytra. Like Grian has wings, Mumbo has those polygonal ones and Doc has those propeller things. Nice!

[@Rein3-8]

I love how one of the first things doc asks is “are you bored again?!” To grian

[@jazmin5616]

0:54 and 0:59 Doc's expression really went from "tired Uncle dealing with bored nephew" to making promises you know he'll keep very quick. Not sure whether that should scare me or impress me how quickly his tones changes and how well you can draw them.

[@jazmin5616]

I have been corrected. Sibling says "nah, nah, that's not a tired uncle vibe. That's a college student dealing with violent middle schooler sibling vibes." And yknow? Fair.

[@persefida]

xD Fair

ah wow i LOVE how charming your animatics are!! you always add such fun little touches, the smug and exasperated expressions, dynamic camera angles, the little touches of animation here and there, it's such a delight to see!! and OH MY GOSH THE CAPTIONS?? color coded AND lighting up with each word??? i can not imagine the time that must have taken :O absolutely incredible

The way doc immediately went “dude are you bored again?” Is actually hilarious

[@ramblewheels2044]

I had a smile on my face the whole time watching this. This moment is one of my favorites in recent episodes. Your animations are some of my favorite Hermitcraft ones. You add such movement and expression. You breath life into it. I love your design for Doc, how he has working on something when you first see him and his jet pack elytra. It's brilliant. I hope Doc and Grian see this. Good work.

[@nenufarsalamander1062]

It was interesting to see how you solved the problem with both of them standing on the actual flag, and I must say, you did it in the best way possible. While some people may say that creating an entirely new platform for that was unnecesary, in my opinion it was the only way. With Minecraft builds it is fully understandable that you usually have to use your imagination to truly make them come to life, but with animatics too often it is the artists who is expected to do even that, and sometimes it can be downright impossible to avoid breaking the immersion of the one watching. Still, you always try to do the inexecutable and with the Scar's Double Life skin and Doc's TunnelBore, I can only say thank you. You are the master of your craft and I really hope that you know that we all appreciate everything that you have ever made.

[@persefida]
