I am slaving away as often as humanly possible trying to get this aniamtion done. But frame-by-frame is far more daunting then I had anticipated. It's going to take me months to get this project done. I am going to do my absolute damndest to make sure it's worth the time I'm putting into it.
It'll last about a minute and a half or 2 minutes at most. It's going to have a small prolouge, a slide-show esque introduction, and then the actual animation with Katyusha herself. It's a teaser of sorts with it's own ministory within.
But again, this is so much time spent. But I'm confident I'll get it done. I've made good progress and won't turn back now! And at the end of it I'm sure going to have something to show off to friends, family, and hopefully would have a plus mark for any interships I apply for.
I know I'm not talking to anyone in particular, but it feels nice to vent my feeling somewhere :)
A Screenshot WOP. About 127 Drawings down, about 300 more to go.

Such is the life of an animator. You'll learn neat tips and tricks along the way, though. Don't worry. One day, you'll knock out hundreds of drawings like they're nothing.

I've already picked up a few key things I've never considered before in animation. But I've reached about the 1/3 mark and am making good progress. But I hope you're right about that last part!
