Well hello there, fellow steemer :)
This morning, I created this animation from one of my drawings:
I used Photoshop, some javascript, and lots of trial and error!
In Photoshop, I separated the wings and the body into different layers, using the clone stamp tool to fill in the body where I cut out the wing shape. Then I used free transform to create a copy of the wings so they are flapping down. Then with some very clunky and poorly written javascript (I am just learning...trying to teach myself!) I coded some basic instructions on how the bug should move, floating up and down and flapping its wings. The script moved the bug, made layers visible/invisible as needed, and saved each frame to a JPEG. I then loaded each individual frame into a stack in a separate Photoshop document, and using the Timeline panel, I created an animated GIF.
It is very basic, but overall, I am very pleased with how it turned out :)
Video & "Tutorial"
Earlier, I posted a time lapse video (speed drawing) of this drawing. I also wrote out a basic "tutorial" on how I drew it, in case anybody was interested in trying to draw something similar! 馃し
