December 2019 (Moving) Pic of the Month
Added 2019-12-09 19:21:37 +0000 UTCUpdate, Dec. 20: I'm retroactively declaring that this animation is the "all-tiers" POTM for December 2019.
This started as a drawing I did for my own enjoyment; yesterday I decided I wanted to see it in animated form, so I spent about three hours doing a rough pencil test. (Animation Desk for the iPad is pretty nifty app for doing rough animations.) I then began to regret spending so much time on something that wasn't for Patreon, DeviantArt or my comics. Then the idea hit me: do a full-color finished animation of this for your Patreon friends, and that way you haven't "wasted" the time you spent on the pencil test!
So I exported the clip from iPad to my desktop Mac as an image sequence I could use in my Clip Studio Paint program for more sophisticated animation tools, and the result... well, you can see for yourself above!
In addition to the GIF animation above, you can download an .mp4 video (1920 x 1440) at the download links below. (Heck, I'll even throw in the original pencil test so you see this clip's humble beginnings.)
