Pinkie Pie DOTA Gyrocopterby ~Yudhaikeledai

Flash / Animations

Dota2 Gyrocopter [link]

This is not my main project currently; It is made as a filler to fill in the gaps and probably expand in the future when Project Portal Series Termination is completed, as a companion to the Starcraft ones

Note guys, delays after clicking an ability is intended to sync the portrait with the animation

---------------------------------------------

After few weeks working on Portal: Series Termination, add to that the trip that rendered me unable to animate; I've lost my momentum real bad which means that this last week I really slowed down

I decided to do something different to refresh myself as well as regain that lost momentum. Hehehe, this thing prove that I can actually finish animations like this in 2 days; although non-stop though

Got to practice with AS2 too!

---------------------------------------------

Hero Lore, Pinkie Pie the Gyrocopter

Most ponies know Pinkie as an energetic and enigmatic party pony, her life goal is to make everypony smile. What many don't know is the kind of methods she uses to achieve this goal. Other than throwing non-sequiturs or bursting out into a song, Pinkie is an expert builder and tinkerer; party cannons, party wagons, cupcake mass-production machines, and the list goes on. However, one creation can be distinguished from the others. The Gyrocopter, known by the others as "some flying thinga-majig," is the first mechanical aerial vehicle ever built in Equestria, originally intended to be her main mode of transportation before she discovered that taking shortcuts through the 4th wall is much easier and more efficient. As a result, Pinkie is rarely seen with this particular invention. But when she does, her presence is guaranteed to be a blast, both literally and figuratively; Her Gyrocopter swooping in providing support as well as a dazzling spectacle for her friends and allies alike while devastating her foes through mindblowing, unconventional methods.

---------------------------------------------

To be honest, I've only used gyrocopter once; and I fail epicly... Oh well, I've found my comfort zone within other heroes so I don't really mind that. I like the concept though, he looks like a fun hero to play if used right

---------------------------------------------

Animation:

3 idle animations for Pinkie. When any ability is clicked, there will be some dialogue between Pinkie and the others, CHOSEN AT RANDOM

Clicking the same ability again may reveal different dialogue.

Responses are taken directly from MLP Cartoons

---------------------------------------------

I don't know whether to continue this with other characters, considering that I have Starcraft to be completed

But if you have any suggestions, please go ahead!

---------------------------------------------

Time taken (without character vector preparation): 2 Days

Music used is Dota 2 Explore 1 and 2 [link] and [link]

Dota2 (c) Valve

As soon as I just read "DOTA" I was almost shitting my pants, and then as soon as I just read "Gyrocopter", I've exploded

You did an awesome job here, good concept, you first did with the "thinking with portals" thing, and now you came out with this...
The only flaw I detect here is that you did the standing animation of her in the map so good that I thought you could move, but NO, only got the spells previews. Still awesome, but anyway, my bad

But there's something else. It was a bit blank for me her quotes...Don't get me wrong but knowing Pinkie Pie, she could have more quotes in only one attack, just saiying she should never stop talking until she say the final quote like "I call it combos"

Overall, this is my favourite MLP animation -NO. My favourite of ALL your animations you did so far

What do you think?

when i saw this i gained interest
seeing pinkie in dota would be nice

the overall hud COULD look nicer although is fairly nice already
gyrocopter is well represented by this peace
his skill look fairly nice in this representation
(i played 2 games as gyro after i watched this)

the portrait is a bit boring (comparatively to your starcraft portraits even though they were based around it.)

the design of pinkrocoptor(as i will now refer to it as)
is very nice and works way to well on the character itself
from one who plays mmoba games religously
you have done very well on this representation of
an ad ranged carry good luck to you sire and i look foward to your next works of pure art and fantasy

p.s. it made my day
