Description
So, the Blinky Blocks (that I've just named) got together and decided to build a ........... Llama!
Watch the animation closely. You'll see them fidgeting, blinking & bouncing.
Wanna make something like this yourself? The possibilities are endless! I've created a pack of Blinky Blocks for everyone to use.
This probably looks easier than it was. I built this based on a "chart" made from the original dA llama and there are definitely more colors in it than it looks. Each block has it's own pupil layer and blink layer and each block is on it's own separate layer. @_@
20 frames and about 290 layers.
It was fun though and I planned to do more with this but decided not to overcook it.
BUT, alas, the Blinky Blocks will be back in something else!
Here's another one!
edit: Feel free to use this on your dA page.
Help me decide what the Blinky Blocks should build next! [link]

You need a normal image for that. You can take a screenshot and crop it or save it as a png or jpeg

I'm not exactly sure but something like 2 hours to make the blocks and 2 to build/animate it.

I've just started to play with layers. This had to take a while. Good work!

I can't imagine how much time it must have taken to do 290 layers, but the result is pretty awesome.

Thank you! Not yet but I have a poll asking what I should do next. You should choose one!

The patience you've had to have to do this. Dx I can only begin to imagine how many frames it is. *to lazy to save and open to see* But I animate myself so I give you many props for doing this and it turned out soo well!

Thank you! I'm really glad you like it. I appreciate your kind words. It was definitely a pain but I love the way it turned out. It actually only has 20 frames but I just counted about 290 layers.

Ah, you are most welcome. 
Lol well in this case, with all the layers it is the same as having that many frames only you made it not be large in file size this way.

I'd hope so! I'd like for deviants to use this on their pages. I'd be honored.
I plan to make more of these little guys. I have a poll on my page if you'd like to help me decide what to do next.
