And yeah I think it's only been in proper production for like 9 months, pretty crazy how much we got done in so little time

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 13/09/2026

I did actually! I did the animation polish pass on Landen and big R's cinematic (keeping it vague so I don't accidentally spoil people if they see this). I did the layout for some of the later ones and I did all the lighting and rendering for the final cinematic whenever you get to it

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 13/09/2026

They specifically went and recruited people who'd done cool fan stuff for this WC3 project to get as many community people as possible, I got flash banged by a message from the art director on Artstation in the beginning of the year lol

THERE HE IS THAT'S MY BOI THIS IS WHAT I'VE BEEN WORKING ON THIS YEAR (The game itself, not this cinematic) www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-C2...

Inspired by them - but it's one of the Dark Rider's of Karazhan that I'll make a short machinima featuring some time soon

Cooking up a smaller project in my spare time Kitbashing WoW models is still just so satisfying, I love it. #warcraft

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 02/05/2026

I made a showreel for our 3D school's industry Meet and Greet event last week, so I figured I may as well also share it here #Blender3D

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 24/02/2026

But yeah, can't really say much else regarding the Blizzard stuff as I'm under NDA, just wanted to share before I forgor to mention it yet agane, incase people start wondering why I might be even less active than usual

020

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 24/02/2026

Which yeah, I'm also working on a small horror game now, which I might also post a bit about here whenever I actually have something to show, still very early in development though, so it might be a while

110

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 24/02/2026

Of course this is amazing, but it does mean that I'll have to put my Arthas animation on pause (for the 10th time) as I'll be working on some actual Blizzard work AND at the same time I'm also doing a game as my bachelor project, so I'll be quite busy for the next while lol

121

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 24/02/2026

Hey everyone, so uh just wanted to give a quick update... I've now been hired as a freelance animator for Blizzard 🎉

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 30/10/2025

I made this video earlier this year just as a test for this type of video. All the lighting, movement etc was all done in post, which was maybe not the smartest of my ideas lol, it took quite a while to add the lighting to every single character frame Here's the "uncomped" version for comparison

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 04/10/2025

Oh I'm talking about the actual character animation (movement) and not character models. The models for all the main characters I finished like years ago lol Now I "just" have to animate the entire project, which is sitting at around 29 minutes long

000

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 03/10/2025

Here's another little sneak peak at some animation I did, this time of a zombie zombo-ing around #Warcraft #Blender

070

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 30/09/2025

Lol, perfect timing then XD *I am always watching😶*

020

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 30/09/2025

It's been nearly 2 years since I last did proper character animation, so it's a bit rough getting into again, but I'm happy with this quality so I'm hoping I can make the entire animation at this level Now that was 7 seconds of 1 character down, that leaves just 29 more minutes to go 💀

130

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 30/09/2025

I've finally got around to animating again, here's a little sneak peak at some of the animation I did yesterday #Warcraft #Blender

2263

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 10/08/2025

And THIS is the entire rig shown all at once lol

110

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 10/08/2025

Oh that, that's the nice, clean and readable version of it This is the true horror of face rigging, with some bones hidden, as otherwise you wouldn't be able to see everything

100

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 10/08/2025

Here's a version showcasing the rig, for the 1 person who might be interested in that

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 10/08/2025

And here's a quick animation expression test I did to test out the face rig of my Sorceress character #Warcraft #WoW #Blender

1141

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 09/08/2025

This is another character I made in school, this time for my 4th semester exam. She's mainly based of concept art of the Sorceress unit from Warcraft 3 Reforged, with aspects of other designs thrown in as well #Warcraft #Blender

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 07/08/2025

I just posted a compilation of all the animations I've done for / that are in PlatinumWoW's lore videos over the last few years. As I noticed it's been over 2 years since my last YT upload so I figured I should probably post something lol www.youtube.com/watch?v=u31U...

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 07/08/2025

This is the original 1 week (mainly rigging) project I did, before spicing it up for my showreel exam

000

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 07/08/2025

Here's another animation I made for a school assignment. We were given a space ship model that we had to rig and make a little animation for it. I might have gone slightly overboard with it lol I later did this polished version for my exam showreel [Repost, from 2023] #warhammer40k #blender

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 06/08/2025

Yeah I think for the final rendered version it probably took about 8 hours to render lmao

000

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 06/08/2025

Yeah I think I spent about 3-4 hours on it, once you account for lunch break and me figuring out what to do for the assignment. One of the perks of hand animating everything without reference for 6 years lol Still gotta love animation, spend 4 hours of work for 9 seconds of video xD

110

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 06/08/2025

This animation was originally made as just a quick 1 day animation assignment before I then spiced it up and polished it for my exam Still pretty happy with how the original one looked considering I only spent a couple of hours on it

120

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 06/08/2025

Here's a comparison between the solid view, raw render and final composited versions of it I used to not do compositing at all when I first started animating, then I tasted the power of not having to re-render every time something was looking slightly off lol

110

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 06/08/2025

Here's a quick animation I made for my school exam featuring my Sister of Battle character. I also just went through and added a some quick sounds for it 🎧 #warhammer40k #blender

170

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 05/08/2025

And here's a quick turntable of the character (Got some more videos and such of her over on my artstation) www.artstation.com/artwork/6N1mV6

030

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 05/08/2025

The poses we had to do were, Fighting, Sinister, Seductive, Girly Cute and Dancing Making a background environment wasn't a part of the assignment so I just kinda threw something together real quick

141

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 05/08/2025

This is the Sister of Battle character I made for a school assignment. We had 6 weeks to create a "Game Ready Character" and do some renders of them in some poses the class choose. [Repost, from 2023] #warhammer40k #blender

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 04/08/2025

And fun fact, while I was making this I was also working on the animation for PlatinumWoW's Garrosh video, so I'd spend all day in school animating Garrosh and them come home and animate some more Garrosh lol bsky.app/profile/shen...

010

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 04/08/2025

This is the actual handin for the assignment, which I then later polished a bit to make the video above

110

Shenimations @shenimations.bsky.social · 04/08/2025

Here's an animation I made for a school assignment. We had to pick an 11 second audio clip for the animation and I figured I'd do some justice to Garrosh's "death but proper really fully dead now" shadowlands cinematic as the VA is amazing for it [Repost, from 2024] #Warcraft #WoW #Blender
