#tbt #TBThursday Heroes of the Storm Genji animation thread. I've been super busy lately but new content is coming soon.
Homescreen is usually the last thing I work on for a Hero. Genji pays homage to 8-bit gaming complete with parallax scrolling elements 1/9pic.twitter.com/ndRvsftWS9

Run cycle. Always a challenge on HoTS since walk rate is actually pretty slow but Genji absolutely requires his signature leaning run pose 3/9pic.twitter.com/nJRbXXcner

Auto attack sequence. Genji is one of the few Heroes that have different animations for close and long range melee attacks. Damage is the same but close up is more stylish IMO. "Choppy" but functional. 4/9pic.twitter.com/SWQdw0lL0S

Hearth/recall animation. Early versions had a slower "jutsu" sequence. Final version had considerable speed up. 6/9pic.twitter.com/rl9fqXTy5Z

Deflect sequence. Originally designed to have just the bubble with no animation. Much more kinetic with the precision wakizashi swinging. 7/9pic.twitter.com/kdn1sUnlFO

The Deflect animation always amazes me. And the jutsu is a 10/10. Beautiful work thanks for your art!
