EDIT: Finished animation here!  

I'm having way too much fun with animating, someone please take my tablet away from me. I HAVE OTHER THINGS I'M SUPPOSED TO BE GETTING DONE!

I really wanted to do the last half of this scribble comic because I thought the bracing action and impact of the torque wrench would have a lot more oomf in motion. Also, Talita's weird jacked shoulder muscles and her complete obliviousness to the fact Shyam's just fallen for her.

I'll eventually clean this up and post it to main, because I don't think I'll be able to stop myself. Pray for my soul, I don't wanna be an animator.

This is so good aaa, I love Shyam's soft smile, and the reflexive swallow!!

The way the tip of the trunk has a little smile as she speaks... my heart

This is so SMOOTH and well done. Just discovered Talita's torso nostrils(?) and wow, yeah, this looks FANTASTIC in motion. Way more oomph. It's a challenge to illustrate this kind of physicality in comics.

I’ve said this before but WOW this is such an excellent animation. Absolutely love the flex in her muscles and the sudden movement with the exhale and the push. The trunk speaking is so damn weird but in a cool way that really reminded me she’s an alien after all. And all the little details like her feathers raising as she tenses, and Shyam’s tail curling in surprise ahhh so good 👌👌👌

Everything about this is the best, and I am hopelessly in love both of them! All the subtle body language you include is so well done, and I freely admit to watching at least a couple dozen times, some of those frame by frame, to catch everything. I love that we can see the moment Shyam's brain goes "Brrrrrr, pretty lady strong!", and the realization of her feels when she hesitates in responding to Talita. Sidenote: With as much force as she exerted on the wrench, I would be greatly surprised if the wheel bolt didn't simply shear off (assuming a bolt+lugnut arrangement for the wheel hub).

I am curious as to the method of Talita's vocal production, with one way airflow. Is there some diversion air on exhalation, or does she speak on the inhale, or even a sound production air bladder, like bagpipes..?

Each time I see more of Talita's Trunk spoke it just starts to make more sense, and become even cooler

I love everything about this video! Gotta ask, though: is it running at like 1.5x speed? I keep having to grab the little progress bar and slow it to a manual slide to catch the details.
