Portgas D. Ace - Animation

Doflamingo X OC Sofia! 2 variants.

Every morning he combs her hair with his strings! At the start he still had to use two hands but now he's so practised he can do it one-handed.

The background is from google, a free-for-use commercial one!

And then this is the simple background version.

Immediate response on Twitter:

Did I start blushing uncontrollably at the "Fufufu"? Maybe. Do I feel silly for it? Very. Have I stopped yet? Not in the slightest. Thank you so much once again! Speaking of advice, all of my confidence is a pure product of "fake it 'til you make it"!

I have quite the habit of rambling on when I'm happy, so Tumblr shall be my medium of choice for the proper response to this.

Ahhh!!! Another kind message, so soon?! You're totally spoiling me!

Thank you so much once again! The animations are definitely a lot easier to find over on YouTube, everything on Tumblr and Twitter ends up being all over the place, even with the masterlist. But that's a side effect I'm happy to accept for constantly throwing new things out into the void!

The same goes to you, mister or missus Unknown, all the best to you and all of your endeavors as well!

Your earlier message inspired me so that instead of making the initial small 2-frame-animation I had in mind, I wanted to take on a bit of a bigger project.

Here's a little WIP, hehe!

(The background is directly taken from the anime and may be sacrificed for the sake of realism in the future - anything goes, so long as I don't need to draw a background myself!)

Dear anonymous, I have no idea which platform you use, (maybe you use BOTH twitter AND tumblr?! Then you're gonna see double and triple!)

But oh my god, thank you so much! I shed a few happy tears when reading this, hehe!

You're just as nice, sending a gimmick as lovely as this. Thank you for being you as well!!

Positive feedback like yours makes me want to animate more things again! :D

I'm trying to make sure to update all of my fanfictions right now before my holidays end, but maybe I could squeeze in a little LoveyBug animation just for you!

Okay, that seems kind of egotistical seeing as LoveyBug is my bug-self, but you know, semantics.

As somebody once told me (and I live by this advice): "No matter the quality of what you put out there, putting in the effort and creating something is already a lot more than most other people do."

This of course can apply to any interest you have, be it knitting, voice acting, or snipping booger at passers-by. (Okay, maybe don't do the last thing. That's kind of gross.)

Jokes aside though, thank you again! Please have a wonderful day!!

I thought I'd try to use AI to unblur it and oh my god it's disgusting burn it before it lays eggs

i'd be embarassed to have my website's watermark on that, not gonna lie

It's actually a crime that they put Doflamingo out of focus here.

A CRIME.

Like, this is the best shot of Dressrosa Takeover Doffy where his cute short upward spikes are shown during the takeover on the front profile and it's a a fckn CRIME they put him out of focus. Like, they really drew Doffy this beautifully and then went "yeah we'll put him out of focus"

CRIME CRIME CRIME CRIME

I already have so little Takeover Dressrosa Doffy material as we speak, this fckn SUCKS 😭

I GET MORE MATERIAL OUT OF DRESSROSA TAKEOVER DOFFY'S REFERENCE SHEET THAN IN THE ANIME. WHAT THE HELL 😭😭😭

Just saw this, checked my last line written and it's fun enough to repost here imo!

"Sometimes you feel like you really just aren't meant to sleep with this man-child of a captain. Fate seems to have conspired against having Trafalgar Law lose his virginity." 

It's from Cook-ya's Self-Indulgence where we had Law disassembling himself in the last chapter. It got a bit wild!

Going to go with the option of tagging anybody who wants to join too! Don't want to leave anyone out ^-^

WRITING GAME post the last line that you wrote

Thank you to @bettystonewell for tagging me! This is the last line I wrote. Currently, I am still writing my 'Woman of Letters' series, (28k words and counting).

“Where’s Dean?” You asked, your voice soft and full of hope.

Again, I don't have many mutuals, so I will just tag my favorite accounts: @deansbeer @dulcescorderitas @sammyluvr @buckysbabygorl @lovelybarnes

No pressure to anyone I tagged!

"For my new year's resolution, I'd like to stop killing my family! Cheers!"

Version with lineart:

Reference: (taken from @physics-of-one-piece 's amazing provision of North Blue Doflamingo scenes. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart!! They're a total life saver for being obsessed with this silly flamingo psycho.)

and finally, a little sneak peak from an AMV that's so big that it'll take me another few months to finish!

nancy sinatra x donquixote brothers = fuel for both my happiness and sadness at once

Bang Bang my baby shot me down

Ok this will be the very last post of the year I think XD I’ve made this after suggestion from my best friend ; v ; when we read that part in the manga…. well, of course we were both very affected by Corazon and this arc, so … “enjoy” my contribution to this fandom I guess? 

Sorry not sorry

Doflamingo cooking for @saracrossing02 's #DoffyCooking ... event? prompt? Whatever you'd like to call it!

I really wanted to try out this sort of simplified motion in animation and thought of that just this morning so having this prompt as a base this evening was kind of perfect to steal a gif of Sanji cooking in the anime and slap Doffy all over it :P

Doing this is a nice break from my usual animations which take between 15-20 hours whereas this only took roughly 4 hours (thankfully, my wrist couldn't have taken much more! xP )

I had Dressrosa on while animating this and I like to think that it was quite inspiring. I've finally gotten my hands on the English dub and oh my god I think I love Doffy even more now. The voice is so freaking creepy and I really do just connect with the story more when I understand what's being said. (Only understanding the ocassional "kakoii" really isn't enough :P )

One Piece Unlimited World Red

Battle Collosseum

Doflamingo's first appearance

Part 2 here

Wanted to start a solid log of these cutscenes.

Feel free to make gifs off of this and go wild!

I'll continue playing through it and providing these scenes here, if you let me know that you're interested in seeing more then I'll definitely have a bigger incentive to do so quickly :P

Link to more cutscenes from my first part of playing through it (featuring a bit of Law getting annoyed with the strawhats!):

Corazon trolling Doflamingo Doshinji!

Me + Doflamingo

Me + Rosinante

"Quickly colour it so you'll have a new pfp" I thought.

Two hours later I'm rethinking my ability to do things quickly.
