Oh em gee, Jade is white. Sue me. I couldn't figure out an easier way to change her skin tone so I left it alone.

A big thank you to }{ombat for supplying me with the additional resources and information to make this animation possible wink.

I was inspired by one of Jaded-Raven animated Jade sprites and decided to shoot for this simple, but effective idea.

Sorry dude, I've seen much better work from you. How can we jump start the animation business? It's long overdue for a resurrection.

No shit, green ice?
You've had better ideas than that bro...

I'll be the first to admit though, good ideas are hard to come by these days.

As always, I like your style. You don't add those photoshop effects that don't even match with MK's art style. You keep it simple which makes the "fake" believable to newbs... just like fakes were meant to be.

If these ideas come from Jaded-Raven, I suggest not using that persons ideas again. I know you got it in you bro.

Glad to see you still have the patients for all this shit smile

I'm sorry but... jade freezing the guy into green ice?
I suppose this is a tribute to how the MK Team made Reptile's moves in MK1.

Unfortunately, it's too late sir. All the animation OG's are gone with the wind. Jordanman, Flash-Crash and of course, TimsMK. No disrespect to anyone though. I just think animations are no longer popular like fake pics. It's a shame too.

Hahahaha! W-T-F!!! I never would've thought I would see you back up this shizner again. What it do bro? And let me clear some confusion...Baraka did not turn to green ice. Jade's kiss made him to jade stone thus shattering him to bits. Jaded-Raven idea had Jade touching her opponent into stone and slicing her opponent quickly. I felt that didn't fit Jade so I went with a different version of Kitana's fatality.

But you're right, no idea is original. That's why I suggest people email me if they got any ideas.

Thanks for keeping it 100% like always. I would love to see some new stuff from you soon. Or even a collabo? smile. You make a fake pic and I would make it an animation like I did Fedegita's image a while ago.

Hope you stick around and this wasn't just a one appearance posting like MKRocket be doing. Haha wink

I heard he liked being referred to as VenoFart...

I thought it was funny how he'd claim his insults were meant to improve people's artwork... now look at this DEAD forum.

No offense BS but you didn't help much either... but you were more honest than veno.

blah blah blah

Anyway,

No illussion... this isn't one of those once-a-year surprise posts. As long as MK games don't suck I'll be sticking around.

If you want some ideas of animations, I'll try to find some old fakes that I made which consisted of 4 frames (to give viewers an idea of the before, during, and after the fatality).

I'll even throw together some simple fakes for ideas sake when I get bored enough.

Quite the contrary, señorita. BlackSaibot was helpful in reminding me that I could do so much better. A true statement, no different from the first time he told me that when I first joined the MK community around 2001 and started making fake pics. My skills were piss poor to boot but BlackSaibot helped me gain the confidence I needed to keep going. And not only that, but he inspired me a lot because his criticism was real and stood out from anyone else in this forum's heyday of fake pic making.

I actually kind of like the idea. Mostly because I see Boon back in the 90s adding such a last-minute, thrown-together "wtf this makes no sense" idea for a fatality just for the sake of meeting the deadline. It's got retro quality, which is MK's bread and butter these days (you know, apart from the violence).

Technically, the animation's a bit choppy - the words at the start flash by too quickly while the fatality itself seems slow at times (for eg, compare the kissing to the uppercut explosion). There are also some frames where her top changes from light to dark green, you might wanna watch out for that.

Other than that, i likes. Great to see some animations again.
EDIT: Still loving that Rain one. Simply explosive

Can't believe I missed this!
I like how you keep the effects to be for the game and don't put in photoshops that we know were not in the older MKs. Very cool and something that I feel is lost on most fake/animation artists.
With that being said though, yeah, the "turning him into jade" isn't that hot an idea. If I could submit an idea to you, I would, but I'm sure you'll find inspiration soon.
