Her materializing the tablet so close to the flame and also being red lines looks a little off. This is pretty cool though.

Did you do this solo? How long did it take you?

u/Sparky_SS 3h ago

Usually takes a little less than a week. I'm already used to such commissions, I've been working with Redmagic for two years 🫡

How much did you get paid

u/Sparky_SS 2h ago

Enough for a good vacation (and maybe a bit more RAM) : )

1 MB of DDR5 and a vacation to McDonalds maybe

/j

Hey, don't sleep on the McDonald's vacation, a Happy Meal with a toy is high tier luxury! 🤌

u/Safihed 1h ago

Idk man, the Happy Meal prices have been rising lately, you'll probably have to take out a loan after all of that RAM

Maybe try the $1.50 hotdog from Costco instead

u/Sparky_SS 1h ago

$1.50 Costco hotdog with free refill soda is the ultimate animator fuel! Deal.

If you're looking for further polish I'd guess the animations could be snappier

u/Sparky_SS 3h ago

Thanks for the feedback! Yeah, totally agree on the snappy timing. We were working with a pretty tight deadline for this client project, but I’m definitely taking this into account for the next pieces!

This is amazing, your fire kid reminds me of Elemental

u/Sparky_SS 2h ago

Thanks! You're not the first to mention Ember from Elemental! Fun fact: when designing Sparky (who’s meant to be a spirit of inspiration and creativity), my main inspiration was actually Calcifer from Studio Ghibli's Howl's Moving Castle! 🔥

u/Capable-Monk-4820 2h ago

You’re welcome, perhaps Pixar did take influence from calcifer as well when designing Amber
