    My first time hand drawing an animation that’s more than a 2 frame loop.

    Animated in normal procreate. Did I do okay?

    Hobbyist one shot animator looking to create longer form animations. Samsung/iPad tablet or dedicated drawing tablet?

    Currently for digital work on my computer, I'm working with a cheap Huion (no screen) drawing tablet. I'm usually creating single scene mess around animations but I realize I have a much easier time on my phone than on my tablet since I'm able to draw on the screen.

    I'm thinking about diving into more long form animations like a short animated series (think Suction cup man). What I'd like to know is, is there a reason you would go for an entry level tablet instead of an S8 or an ipad? you can fetch a tablet on Back market for pretty cheap, But I really like the XP Pen 15 inch tablets, which are a bit bigger than your standard issue tablets at 8 inches. I'm no professional that needs all the features of Krita or Photoshop or Adobe animate, but I animate key frames and tweens so I work pretty thoroughly.

    On the other hand, I also fly, so a tablet can be dual use in that case. I don't get option paralysis a lot but I... definitely do here. Thanks for any and all help!

    Started roughing out the animation for the last shot of the animation project. How does this look so far? Is there any changes I could make in order to make it better? If so, what could I do to improve upon it?

    Finished the "Happily Blooming Flower" short animation project (10 seconds)

    I primarily did this one to experiment with some ideas and actually use two different software (being GIMP and OpenToonz). Might try another one involving flowers and even nature itself in a more ambitious animation project.

    Right now, this one was done for learning and experimentation.

    Doing too much

    I feel as though I've been really struggling with doing too much with my animation, for example ive been really wanting to do animation memes, little short animations with not TOO much work poured into it with loops, but I always tend to overdo it and make it more like a full blown music video animatic... tips??

    Can't find certain animation, need help.

    Hi,
    I'm currently looking for a specific animation on YouTube, but I can't seem to find it and would appreciate some help. Basically, it's a massive fight scene where one guy is trying to buy a drink from a vending machine, but then follows an animal down into an alleyway where he gets into a fight with a near infinite amount of thugs. His powers kinda break reality and he snaps his fingers to use them if I recall correctly. The animation seems to be Korean ish.
    I'd really appreciate whatever help you can give me here, thank you!
