Cake Turtle

hi! it's "cake turtle" your small friend :)

Somewhere hidden in the forest is cake turtle, he helps all the plants and small animals :3 Cake Turtle is very shy but maybe you can gain his trust! His light is there for everyone. Here is a gallery of drawings and gifs for now, check again later for more content!

Cake Turtle project for swiss national day

This project started my gif creations. Making gifs takes more effort than normal drawings, but I wanted to make them since a long time ago. Three cake turtle watercolor drawings were digitalized and animated. Use the gifs to wish your friends and family a happy swiss national day :)

Pen outlines

First I put the ideas down on paper with a pencil and black stabilo pen.
I decided to incorporate the swiss lampions (lanterns) and the tasty fluffy bread "1. August Weggen".

Coloring

I colored the drawings with my van gogh watercolor set.

Photo

I photographed my sketchbook page in bright sunlight and optimized the photo on my phone. I also added subtle effects for example the half tone patterns.

Animate and publish

I animated the photos (with only two frames) and uploaded them :) Finished!
You can find some of my animated gifs when you search "zasminz" in your instagram gif search.

Stay tuned for more Cake Turtle stuff :3
