[wip] Blanket octopus
🕑 Added 2021-05-04 18:56:23 +0000 UTC*** In iOS's Mobile app, GIFs on post are not moving. I recommend read this post on webpage.
I have a large picture of an octopus on my bed for a long time, so I sometime think about cephalopod before going to bed.. One day I imagined about sleeping with a Blanket octopus covered.
If I had great sewing skills, I would have made customize a blanket octopus-shaped blanket😂
Instead, I can animation as you know, so decided to make an dreamy GIF animation.
Here is a very messy early idea sketch.
The pajama squid and pyjama cardinal fish is a perfectly prepared animal for bed😁
Sketch and color thumb
Reference vedio for animation : [Youtube] 4K Palau Rock Island, Pajama Cardinalfish
Rare 'rainbow' blanket octopuses caught on camera in the Philippines
Pyjama Squid - South Australia
WIP gif
Animation
I tested with 4frames.
If it were a sticker for sticker pack, I would have used 4 frames.
But I wanted to give it a relaxing feel, so I decided to use 8 frames.
(It means that the works I have to draw myself have doubled lol)
I finished the basic flow of the tentacles first, and then drew the suckers one by one later.
This is the finished work.
I hope you guys will feel relaxed by watching this gif.
I'll update wallpaper within a day.
Thanks for watching!

if you make a rough draft of a pattern I can try sewing something, not as fancy as that though xD probably much smaller too
