I am exhausted lmao. I've never done a looping animation before, or had an animation with so many moving parts ahahaha. And good lord the multiply layers.
Each frame was hand drawn and edited, motion tweens were done the good ol' fashioned way with a calculator and a lot of frustration.
Anyway, wish me luck! I would have liked to do a lot more with this, but I will be away for a little while and won't have time to work on it any more, so I really wanted it finished soon ahaha. Maybe I will do something like this with Normandy, I'd like to do more looping or fullbody animations someday.

This was mostly supposed to resemble a VHS tape movie, hence the CRT lines and general jerkiness of the overall picture. There is a more stable version of this as well, in case looking at this gives you a headache.
