~~~ Newt Scamander Blockshade ~~~ Here is a Blockshade of Newt Scamander from the movie Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. Newt Scamander is played by Eddie Redmayne. Start Date: November 17, 2018 End Date: November 26, 2021 Released: November 5, 2021 (My five-year scratcher birthday!) Actual Released Date: November 26, 2021 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *excited screaming* It's finally done! As you can tell I started this project nearly three years ago. It's taken many many hours to complete, working on it a little every now and then. I'm so happy with how it turned out. I've done one other blockshade of a red panda, and this is a definite improvement. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ On June 26, 2020 I decided to finish this to celebrate being on Scratch for FIVE YEARS! Scratch has introduced me to coding and animation. It has been so fun being on Scratch. Thank you, Scratch Team, for running the website and introducing coding to young minds everywhere. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If you're wondering why the shirt looks so simple but the face is so detailed, the first thing I did was the shirt then (when I had more patience) I did the rest. More details in the project. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Random facts: ~I'm most proud of how his face turned out. That took a while, and the eyes were tricky. Tip for other blockshaders, for smaller details (like eyes) are easier to do if you think of creating them like you would normally draw eyes, instead of trying to zoom in and blockshade normally. (That probably didn't make sense. :P) ~Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them was released November 18, 2016. (which means I started this blockshade 364 days later) ~Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald was released November 16, 2018 (366 days after I started this blockshade) ~Yes, that's an occamy on the thumbnail
