Description or "Wild Cherry Posing", if you're me.
A little bit more animation practice, here's one that was originally done by .

I saw the original sprite in his gallery and asked if I could tweak it a little bit. He said, "Yeah," and here we are!

So what did I do with this sprite that Botchan did not? Well, I took the base animation ([link] ) and added a "smear" frame between her windup to the pose and the full stretch when she first hits it. I feel it helps smooth out the animation a little bit. And just for fun, I made her sticking out her tongue.

So what did I learn this time? I learned how to use smear frames and how to make something look "floppy" (i.e. the tongue). All in all, I'm pleased with it.

And if wanna see a side-by-side comparison between the original and my version, I got you covered! [link]

Nice!!! AmateurΒ pixel animation artist here, mind sharing with me what program you use to do the smear effect?
I am still using MS Paint at the moment and I use gimp to make things transparent and turn my drawn out frames into gifs.
It's time consuming and a little old school. Was thinking about looking more into "pickle" I've heard good things about them.

I'd say cut out the middle man. I did this whole thing in GIMP. Its just as potent a pixel art program as MSP if you know how to work it. Granted... knowing how to work it's the tricky part.

I ended up getting aseprite and found it to be pretty simple to figure out, I like it a lot more than gimp. I didn't exactly know how to use gimp right for pixel art haha it was pretty tricky. Β

Ah, yeah... GIMP is a little trick to figure out.
