weirdo plop walk

I messed around in Toon Boom Animate again last night before I went to bed. Drew this. Some sort of improvised cycle that I figured out as I went along. I'm remembering how much I like animating.

This is hard to explain. But my question is are the two different colors the same drawing, but with the color changed. Or, did you redraw each frame with two different colors?

No, that's actually a really good question. The strobe was an afterthought. I drew the animation at 24 frames per second on twos with a black line. Meaning each drawing lasts for two frames. For the colors, I painted the first frame of each set blue, the second pink. So each drawing plays twice—once blue, once pink, before it changes to next drawing.

Ah. I get it. Thanks.

Awesome! Fun cycle, Bob! I'm just remembering how much I love to animate too now that I got a bit of time.
