LNY - Year of the Snake - 2025

 I'm back with drawing on a screen for this year, but with a lot more experimentation and curiosity. This year I went all out with Blender, testing everything I know and don't know with the program. I learned a bunch and also had a lot of fun answering my own question "How do i make a chase between 2 worms to look interesting?" 

For the full animation, check out the video below. Hope you enjoy this latest addition to this series!

This is a personal project of mine to celebrate Lunar New Year, where I draw the new year's mascot animal chasing away the previous mascot. It's a fun little tradition of mine on this special holiday. To see more of this project, please check out the LNY tag
