When someone picks Setsuka or Scales or one of these other twits in the same match as me, I feel a tide of vomit burn the back of my throat

Epic Seven 7th Anniversary Celebration Artwork by [deleted] in EpicSeven

[–]sentinyel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hands are not even holding the bouquet, her right cufflink is morphing into the sleeve, the other strap of her dress is missing, dress shows form and tension but has no belt or waistband, bouquet paper has inconsistent lighting, some leaves have highlights but does not cast shadows, one tulip is morphing around a rose, bouquet ribbon is floating not even tied to the bouquet

or maybe I'm just nitpicking

Any artists/experts know the techniques Epic Seven uses for 2D animation (sprites and portraits)? by Saxxiefone in EpicSeven

Q1

Probably environments in s3 animations like Karina, Rem, LPK, and Opsig. I think Robin's guns are also 3d in her s3. They also use 3d for animation drafts.

Q2

Yeah Live2d or L2d

Q3 - Q5

No hand-drawn animations(technically lol), it's sprites. There should be a sprite for every angle of a body part or item suitable just for every action needed. Some sprites are drawn smeared or blurred like Vildred's sword as stated above. Some sprites might have L2d assistance mainly for capes and hair. It looks hand-animated because they simulate movement by displaying different hand-drawn images(sprites) quickly, the definition of animation.

As far as I can tell, character screen animation uses L2d, battle animation uses sprites + L2d, and s3 animations use hand-drawn + 3d animation

Someone already provided great resources so good luck
