Made for the 140th round, Fantasy Island



This one was so fun, I just love summer aesthetics ❤

Variants


Icon 5 was supposed to be animated but the one I submitted isn't because I couldn't manage to make the gif not look like shit lol. I'm sharing the result here even tho it looks bad because I still think it was a cool idea, I'm so sad I couldn't make it work orz




Made for the 141st round, Brought to Life



I wasn't going to participate in this round at first because I was kinda busy last month and I wasn't getting any good ideas. But in the end I managed to put some together.

I've grown fond of icon 2 because it's a pretty accurate representation of me while making these. That was also my reaction when I saw it won mod's choice.

Variants + Others

Wow... these are lovely ^o^ I wonder how much more you'd add to the gif icon because right now I think it looks amazing as it is.

Thank you <3

It's been almost 2 month so I don't remember all the details, but I remember I had to remove a bunch of frames and readjust things many times because the gif was over the size limit 😅 But then the main issue is that the quality looks awful after animating it. The character looks too blurry and there are those damn dots everywhere orz it's probably because the colors are so bright and saturated, I had issues in the past making gifs because of that 😔
