After learning the ropes of Aseprite, I tried animation as I had the naive thought back then to bring my story to life in pixel art form--not knowing of the difficulties animation brought along with it hahah (ᵕ—ᴗ—). But as a first test, I tried animating Montblanc in her idle state. Now that I look back though, this one looks like she's throwing a fit or something. And! I can see stray pixels, especially that one on the top-left part of her hair! But eh, I'm not gonna bother fixing it now and leave it as a reminder of sorts hahah.
To be honest, for how imperfect this is, I was very happy with how this animation turned out. I especially liked Nano (the sentient skull ornament) bouncing on Montblanc's witch hat for some reason hahah. And I'm extra proud of the blinking eyes, thinking then like it was some great achievement or something. There are some parts not animated though, such as the hat's brim and the tail end of her robe, among other things. But really, I was proud of this one regardless.
I'm planning on posting twice a day from now, just so I can catch up with my current project a bit faster. Right now I'm still in the 2021 era though, so even at that pace it'll still take a while hahah. That's it from me though, have a good one ( ˶ˆᗜˆ˵ ).
P.S.: A friend told me I posted it under Illustrations and not Ugoira so the gif didn't work hahah. Thanks, my guy.
