*Spoilers for Burning Maze - Trials of Apollo*

I wanted to animate the scene where Apollo sacrifices himself right before the whole Jason incident because it was one of my favorite scenes. The way it was written and the way Caligula was actually a good, evil, villain, made it extremely interesting and suspenseful to me. I cut out a couple of the moments from the book to keep this shorter and more action-filled, but all the words used in the animatic are directly from the book by Rick Riordan. I hope you enjoy!

(Also, I know Caligula is supposed to be wearing his sailor’s outfit but when I read the book I completely missed that and thought he was wearing the Sun God costume from one of Apollo’s flashbacks. Therefore, that’s all I could imagine when reading it, and it felt wrong to draw him in the sailor’s outfit. To be honest, I just feel like the Sun God outfit is more iconic and most fan art of him is done as such. Plus, I really like drawing robes and, as you can see in the animatic, I used the robe to its full extent with all the poses and transitions.)
