The 2nd part of the update (see my previous post) of Spyro essentially being given a task but not before consequences of his actions catch up to him, featuring Evan Duff and AnnoMorana.

Finally another full update on the Spyro animation "short" I been doing, this being part 1 of 2 as it's a lengthy sequence of Spyro essentially being given a task but not before consequences of his actions catch up to him, featuring Evan Duff again.
More info on my YouTube channel.

Another Spyro animation update: Mainly just polishing since all the voice work has been done (might re-do some Spyro lines). Underestimated how much iteration is involved but it's progressing.
Here's a scene with VA by Evan Duff with Spyro acting like nothing's wrong, trimmed to fit to 3 minutes.

2nd part of scene 5, with some hiccups with how Unreal doesn't always play audio properly and still some audio adjustments. Also showcasing a dynamic ambient lighting setup I recently got working to help various props/characters fit the environment better.

Another Spyro animation update after some time, mainly wrapping up scene 04 and polishing 05 as Spyro rushes to get to the boat with the package. There's a lot with two videos and some music (Cope Land) and audio as well (some still temporary).
The 2nd video is in the thread below.

Been busy with another project but got most of shot 4-6 done for the Spyro animation. Mainly wrapping up Spyro nearly getting caught and be given a harness for delivering an interesting package. Not having the wings/tail get caught in the doorframe was interesting to figure out lol
(no audio)

Another update on that Unreal Spyro animation thing. I usually post updates as a YouTube community post but couldn't easily fit things into a 40 second GIF. More info on my YouTube channel.
This shows the segment of an upset dragon elder looking for Spyro and another trying to hide him (no audio).

More Spyro animation progress, mostly wrapping up what I call scene 09 out of 10 with Spyro delivering a gift but accidently broken the contents and gets promptly shown the door in a unique way. Also some magical shenanigans.
(No audio, just animation)
(Don't grab anyone by the tail either).

I tend to post community posts on YouTube related to a Spyro "short" I'm working on but always have to convert it to GIF/WEBM which cuts the framerate. I might start posting updates here as well (shorter posts)
For context: Spyro is delivering a package but not who they were expecting (no audio).
