Yup, I'm actually learning how to animate 2D. :iconsocuteplz:

It's very slow progress, at the moment I'm just focusing on general improvement using these palm-sized thin paper for practice. It's messy, but it works.....more or less.

I could, if I really wanted to, do 3D as well. Which I probably will. But I feel like I need to learn the essentials paper-wise first. It might allow me to understand animation a lot better.
And doing that WITHOUT using Flash. (Flash is the cheesy short-cut way. >:C)

EDIT: Oh, and by the way, I'm not doing the anime-style animation with cute little mouths smiling. Although I adore some aspects of the style, I feel the cartoony way speaks a little louder for me.

Any advice or critique would be welcome. I need help if I want to get better.

This little animation is © to me.

I'm damn lazy and I rather prefer animating digital drawings - it's easier and faster xD

I disagree; I find the traditional way faster. On the computer; I make way too many corrections, and rather than quickly sketching something, I end up with a sleazy over-corrected animation. The old-fashioned way allows me to quickly put something together and then learn from my mistakes step-by-step. :3

Though I have to agree digital is a LOT cleaner. XD

Maybe there's some truth in what you say, but anyway, it's much easier to make a few frames fit to each other on the computer xD

Yeah, it's slow progress. DX But I get more pleased with each animation I do. :3

Your broken should then lie in bed a little more so it's less brainy. :P
