Legacy LD5

You know that feeling you get when you've been animating a 3D anthro raptor trampling on another, much smaller 3D anthro raptor for a couple of weeks ONLY TO DISCOVER that a good friend and comrade-in-posession-of-larger-arms has simultaneously and unbeknownst to you been animating a 2D anthro raptor trampling another, much smaller 2D nonanthro raptor?

Well I've got that.

Ahastar and I decided to OD the forum with raptor trampling by posting these together, seeing as how we so cunningly and only part-intentionally finished them at the same time. Welcome, basically, to RAPTOR WEEK.

And since he so kindly suggested that I post first, here's my one - it's another depiction of Dras the sadistic, technopunk, tramplepornstar, anthro raptor stomping all over poor, shrunken Ahastar. This time, however, he's brought the little resurrecting half-demon out to an abandoned barn in the middle of the country, where no one can hear the shrieks, grunts, gurgles and eventually conspicuous silence from his tiny victim. First throwing down a soft mat in order to keep Ahastar alive as long as possible, Dras then climbs on top of the shrunken raptor and subjects him to an hour of steady, sensual trampling under his summer-hot raptor pads. Even with the mat to cushion him, Ahastar eventually gets thoroughly pulped under the feet of the trample star, leaving one very happy raptor and a very large stain.

This is violent and gory, so don't watch it if you don't like that kind of thing!



If you can't get it to play, can't download the codec or want a smaller version, try this QuickTime version instead (8.5 MB, H264 compressed).

And now, over to my raptor buddy for round 2:

Yes, round two here! Next week is now officially raptor week. If you have a very special raptor in your life, remember to treat it well and show it a good time! Here is my contribution to celebrate that most divine holiday:

QuickTime.mov version: http://download.lavadomefive.com/member ... Stride.zip
Microsoft.avi version: http://download.lavadomefive.com/member ... ideAVI.zip

The .mov is H264 compressed and should work with any QuickTime player, the .avi uses MPEG4 and is DivX compatible. They are both 30 MB each, so freely pick your favorite file type. And remember: Every time you play an animation on a laptop speaker, a compy commits suicide by stampede nosedive. You want a 2.1 speaker system with a nice bass for this!

Thanks to our local raptor thief Zed for allowing me to use his beautiful likeness, and to Rotarr for her amazing modelling support - she has been an absolute pleasure and honor to work with!

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

Ahastar is innocent and completely clueless this time! That doesn't help him much though. You see, Zed has a girlfriend. Said girlfriend once stated the harmless remark that Ahastar is a pretty looking raptor, which, among other things, proves that she has good taste! Unfortunatly, Zed being a bit of a jealous kind, sort of disagreed. He stalked his utterly oblivious raptorian "rival", jumped him out of a jungle foliage as green as Zed, pounced the surprised and startled Ahastar over and almost made him drown in shrinking potion. Barely giving his victim the time to come to terms with his new bug-sized perspective on life, our beloved velociraptor thief then slammed one of his green sicklefeet crushingly on top of Ahastar and is now proceeding to "unpretty" his esteemed rival in Zed's favorite way.

It is raining raptors! Sometimes figuratively, sometimes literally. Excellent work, you two. Sneaky reptiles are the most suspicious kind, but also the best kind!

@Diablo: You are getting amazingly proficient in your 3D work in Maya, and I bring kudos to you

@Ahastar: Ahhhh, yes, Zed's girl. You still have a superb grasp at drawing soles, and it shows rather well! I am glad you continued to do animations, they really do fit your style quite well!

Aww man, bloody indeed. Not my kind of thing, but damn it was well to see that little raptor be smushed into a bloodly pulp. Now I would love to see how a big flying Lugia to catch this little guy since it's Raptor week

Very nicely done Diablo and ahastar, I always love seeing your guys videos.

Wow, I like Raptor Week! Pawsome work, guys!

It's amazingly brilliant! Your animations truly rock! Yay for raptor week!

Can't wait to see more animations from both of you!

Both of them are awesome! I'm in love with Dras.

And thank you very much for making this little thief your trampling model, Ahas. I'm honoured
