Absolutely LOVED the breakdown of the process. I took your Domestika course a while ago, and I'm still taking on very small landscape pieces (as I prefer creating characters), but I might try tackling a bigger project like this one soon. I appreciate the transparency on timing, as I always wondered if I was too slow or if there were ways to make things faster (specially working w Procreate and lacking some tools). I've been slowly taking Lea Pinto's Vis Dev course on the same platform, and I see that the one "shortcut" they use for vis dev is photo bashing - which is not really what I'm interested in.

On the IG reel vs. carrousel topic, apparently the way the algorithm is optimizing now is for shares (aka relevancy), so a highly shared/saved piece will start being shown to wider and wider audiences. For art, the most shareable content are the ones providing insightful breakdowns, so a carrousel def falls in that description!

Overall, thank you so much for the inspiration! I usually look at your art as my aspiration, since you use a similar layer-by-layer process as me. Onto challenging pieces!!!

Your finished Animation is proper lush! The buildings of the city are AmAzInG. Wow those colors & light! The City has become another character of the story. It’s moods & emotions and continued enduring really resonates Hope. The witch & friend(sleeping in bag)’s levitating and also clouds have very smooth movements. Sometimes those mechanics can take the Life right outta a piece. Thanks for sharing your challenges AND successes and insights into your processes and challenges. Its good and necessary for me to be reminded that Good Art take time. Again thanks & Well done
