Yuuma giving Flandre the big spoon (Patreon)

This one took me like 2 days to make. Not so much the first cut of Yuuma kneeling but the next one of her jumping in the air. That's a total of 10 frames right there. One character is already enough work, but add a second character and you workload just doubled. And this is nothing compared to the scene of them fighting each other. We'll find out how that goes once I get to it.

I must also mention that these WIPs are not the final frame rate. I just make the GIFs quickly with the final product having a different frame rate. But it does give me a good idea of the flow and what I need to do to improve it. I think this is fine, with perhaps maybe adding one more frame of Flandre jumping up. As far as Yuuma goes, I like the way the arc came out. I had to plan that before I started drawing her and that may have contributed to the time it took to animate this. It was quite a task to figure out how to get the arc right. And it wasn't just that either but the distance between each frames as well as the size were also considered to give the illusion of Yuuma jumping from a distance. There was a lot of technical things going on and this is the result of it.

I'm aware that they are fighting on top of a giant pool of oil/blood (I'm still not sure what that stuff really is). I'll be animating that last once everything is in place to know how exactly the oil is suppose to be interacted with, i.e. splashes.
