Hey everyone! Long time no see! Im Dave Bruno, and if you dont know me, that makes sense haha. But my claim to Newgrounds fame was winning the Tournament of Flash Animators in 2011. Ive also worked with Studio Yotta on two projects (Simple Plot of Metal Gear Solid and Obituary) and I did the Death Animations for a number of Puppet Combo games like Murder House and Night at the Gates of Hell. If youd like to know more about me, I have a different blog post about that.
The REAL reason Im here tho is to tell you all my Dinosaur Horror Novel, "Oh F*ck! Dinosaurs!" has launched! And to help let people know I animated a scene from the novel as a Trailer.
I animated this from top to bottom; modeled the environment, animated the CG and 2D and did the post after effects editing. Its something I've always wanted to do since I saw Titan AE in theaters and played Xenogears as a kid, make a 3D environment with 2D characters.
The book is a passion project of mine so I hope you enjoy it!

WHO WILL SURVIVE A NIGHT OF MESOZOIC MAYHEM?
Deep in the mountains, there is a
House that time has abandoned to rot.
Its carcass remains as nothing more than a
bad memory of a horrid nightmare.
Inside its labyrinthine halls stalk primeval terrors
the Earth has not seen in 65 million years.
Their talons sharp, their teeth sharper.
Their appetites hungry.
This Hell is their Home.
And their Guests have arrived...
