Who's ready for a new animation?!? Leo surely is excited, he might not look like it, but trust me, he is >w>

So since my last animation I knew I wanted to try a macro, stompy animation. After a few tests and practice, here it is, full resolution squishy bodies! Lattices are much easier than I thought
I started it with the idea of a close-up stomp, but as it usually goes, I let the idea expand a bit into what you see here... I was originally only doing one render, but the 10 seconds I had looked so nice and polished that I just couldn't resist and do multiple angles. I work on some of it during a livestream on Picarto, and even got the idea of the POV shot from a watcher there... so thank you for those present, it sure was fun ^w^

I learned a bunch with this render, some of it being... contact shadows in lamps increase frame render time by a lot, extra render samples makes things look a lot crispier, it's a lot more important than I expected for eevee, and NEVER RENDER ANYTHING IN MP4 IN BLENDER. Knuckles was orange on my final renders which led me into a spiraling loss of sanity. So there's RGB color and YUV color. Blender doesn't deal with the color conversion between the two formats well, so anything that isn't image sequences or AVI video is gonna have bad colors. I am willing to take a small loss of quality, I'm no insane perfectionist... but orange Knuckles... I shall not tolerate.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy this little animation, I dunno what I wanna do next for animation, but I feel like I'm getting the hang of it! :3
