can't wait to see your 3d animations!
I usually animate straight forward (that means no key frames and no inbetweening, it helps me save more time). If the scene is like 150 pages then it takes me like 2 days to do it. That animation had close to I think 600 drawings. I kept working on and off at it and I finished it in about a month and a half. assembling and scanning took almost a week. If only my old computer could process as fast as my laptop >.< (I want to keep my laptop as clean as possible until I get to college).so it takes a bit of time
but I don't mind ^^ because I love to see the result of my work
I made you want to try animating 2d again? wow!!! I'm so happy!! can't wait to see what you come up with
