I just posted my first ever animated short on my art account and I would really appreciate it if you guys would check it out :)
Its a navajo folktale about how the milky-way was created by the coyote trickster, Ma'ii who got impatient and tossed the stars up all at once.
Ive been working on this project for about 2 and a half months with all the character designs and backgrounds and the actual animation (animating is hell) but now its done:)))
I actually animated this for a reaction, but before I use it I wanna know, do you guys think like it? Took me 2 days to complete. Damn, her hair is ridiculously hard to animate and this is actually used Donald Duck facepalm animation from the Mickey Mouse shorts " Wonders of the Deep" as a reference.
Haibara facepalming but with sound effects.
This short animation was made in Krita. I'm still struggling to use this software though. I don't get how the tools work and don't know which key to use as a shortcut but I'll get through it.
I try to avoid adding a lot of details to my drawings because it makes them more time-consuming to animate. However, I felt that the previous version of this animation looked a bit too flat so I added some shadows and changed the colour of the vertical lines to purple to create more contrast with the background. There’s definitely more that I could adjust, but I’m satisfied with this current version.
