It's only a chunk of the song because animation is hard and I'm tired. It took about 3ish weeks to do, man. Definitely check out the Lightning Thief Musical album, it's great Note: This is the full thing (as in this is all I'm gonna do for this).

Tina has been tearing up Instagram since she joined around March 2016. Within five months she celebrated 5,000 followers and has recently surpassed 15,000 followers! She used to post almost every day, but whenever she’s busy (like now because of art school in Vancouver) it’s more like 2-4 times a week. Much of her earlier work is digital fan art related to Percy Jackson and the Olympians by Rick Riordan, #1 New York Times bestselling author, although her body of original work is most definitively growing now that she’s in art school full-time.
