Bolaire Lathalia - Critical Role Campaign 4 Short Animation

Short animated shot of Bolaire Lathalia from Critical Role Campaign 4.
My first serious animation attempt - I have always been interested in trying 2D animation, although I prefer illustration the most.
Disclaimer: I am not an animator, and I have much to learn regarding illustrated motion. This animation was a fun experiment that I made during breaks.

I studied Castlevania and MAPPA shots for lighting and compositing inspiration.

Drawn and animated in Procreate, Composited in After Effects using F's Plugins.
Project time: 30 hours, 16 hand drawn frames
