-- Marine Emote --
Fullview is a must.

Well well well. What's this? Ryan's emote you say? You couldn't have got it done Tom! It's been so long!

Well, it is done, and it's done til I'm frustrated but happy. This is a prize (an overdue one of over a year) for =animedevildog, who took out a small contest I held in a journal. He asked for a Marine Emote, and, after some careful consideration with him over aspects and such, here it is.


Rundown:

This is obviously set in a battle. Marine pops up from behind his cover and fires off a couple of rounds towards the enemy. He quickly ducks back down as opposing fire flies over his head and smacks into the sandbags. Knowing he needs to buy himself a little time, he picks up a grenade, peeks over the top, and pulls the pin "Hollywood style". He quickly lobs it over and crouches back down, with the grenade's explosion giving him enough time to grab his rifle and resume firing. Loop.

Now, I understand that grenades are no longer thrown, they are shot out of a grenade launcher, but it's not as obvious as the classic Hollywood "lob and duck" method. I also know that bullets do not leave trails after every one of them. Again, they are there to enhance the point.


Ryan, I really hope you enjoy this. All for you. If you want one with just the grenade, give me a bell.

As a final note, this is not intended to glorify the fields of battle. So don't jump down my neck for that.

Enjoy. :)

I reject your reality and substitute my own.

Beautiful work. The shading on the sandbags (are those bullet holes?), the glare of the exploding grenade, the design of the rifle, even the greens you've picked are testimony to your characteristic attention to detail. I wish you'd believe me when I tell you it's flawless, but I know better. Bravo, sir. :worship:

My hexopus love queen avatar product of =sereneworx's talent and generosity.
:iconzacthetoad:
Very nice work on this one I must say. The light that appears on the emote as he fires the gun is very realistic and perhaps one of the better emotes I've seen done where this occurs. Also love the way the sandbags shake with the explosion. Nice job :D

It is awesome. I specially like light effects, which really make it more lively. I am not military expert, so what makes this marine? I think this could be any soldier.
