Hooray for Frame by Frame attempts!

Posted by MetalDart - July 26th, 2007

I tried making my character's head spinning frame by frame. it was originally something I made for a collab, but I loved it too much NOT to use it as my avatar. I didn't do much detail, but I think it came out well. JUST SO YA KNOW, I'm trying to do more stuff frame by frame, instead of tweening. In places I wouldd tween, I'm doing more FBF instead.

STORY OF THE GIF: I had to import each frame from flash into Fireworks (I don't have Photoshop). Originally, it was about 18 frames, but now it's only 10. So, I had to cut out 8 frames but still make it look just as smooth. I had 11 frames worth but I got an "Error: Image is 40.5 KB, you need 40 KB." lol I was so close at that point too and had to cut one last frame.

So yeah, I really think this .gif looks good. I may attempt another one with more detail in the future. His hair needs a lot more detail. :( But for now, I like this. :3

You spin me right round, baby right round, like a record baby right round round round.

That's what the pic reminds me of. lol.

lol I didnt think of that at all actually, but now I'll probably think of it every time I see it now.

Lookin nifteh! Btw, you still doing those commercial things? (I like how you used my V-dubs line for blamformers ^_^)

Yeah, I'm still doing the commercial thing. Sorry about the commercials thing. If you see my last entry, I mentioned it. :)

Also, your voice fit perfectly for my Blamsformer idea, so thank you AGAIN!
<3

lol mullet? heh its cool .

lol I tried not to make it a mullet, but the back of his head with hair.

I wasn't originally thinking it, but now I am. "You sping me right round, baby right round, like a record baby right round round round".

Hahaha, everyone thinks that now.

His eyes dont move smoothly for a turnaround. And why did you draw him in fireworks? He looks like he easily could have been drawn in flash.

I did first draw him in Flash. Since it had problems exporting as an animated .gif (random black blobs and other errors), I decided just to copy each frame and paste it into Fireworks. Unfortunately, I had to cut the number of frames down. So, I would have exported it directly from Flash, if the filesize wasn't as big. :(

This comments need more NeoSoviet.

I think it looks pretty amazing. But I want to know what the 18 frame version looks like :3

Link perhaps ?

ONE problem, the eyes. That`s it. Besides that, I`d fuck it.

You'd fuck anything.
