20 years ago I bought a painting from a street market that featured a cat dreaming about being a dragon. Is this some kind of subconsciously shared knowledge?!

Gotta say you did a great job at capturing natural body movements and forms of the cat! Excellent work!

Not the OP but 2 FREE programs that will allow you to practice are Krita and Blender.

Both also have extensive free lessons and demonstrations on YouTube.

Amazing work! I remember my first little animation with even fewer frames and probably more sloppy work but this is downright gorgeous! Hope you continue to enjoy animating!

Looks good, feels like the cat stretching is a little fast. Might want to hold on a couple frames to give it that feel of a cat that just woke up.

That's exactly what they did. In the Book of Dragons short film Fishlegs says "When tamed, Night Furies are more just a big kitty cat than a ferocious dragon" or something along those lines

That's great!!! It reminded me of when I was a kid I used to draw little flip book animations.

Here we are! And for /u/Foublanc too. I added a description based on what I remember from the conversation I had with the artist in 2004.

Cat dreaming of dragons https://imgur.com/gallery/oR7W9pH

>The artist (hard to make out, but i think it's Nik Maxwell) told me he painted this when he was in a difficult relationship. He's on the right, a skeleton on the sidelines with half his face missing. His girlfriend dominates the frame and has her own demon sucking the life out of her (obsession with her appearance). His cat is sleeping on the bed, dreaming of being the dragons above and below.

That is extremely impressive. It’s really interesting how he moved everything with (seemingly) the most emotional value to the side and left the cat dreaming as the focal point. Thanks for sharing!

This is dope. The animation is smooth. Timing is great. Look is seamless. Nice job! I hope I run into more of your stuff out there:)
