Pic 1: Here’s the room when it’s almost bare. I drew the wall paper and flooring traditionally and coloured them digitally. I zoomed in/out a little under the page’s space. This way when I scan the pages, nothing will accidentally be lost because they were too close to the edges. I also need to remember not to zoom in or out and just use the sliders to do the other rooms.

Pic 2: I taped the animation paper to my computer screen so my final assets will just be more consistent and sized right. That was a problem for the rough assets. I used removable adhesive dots.

Pic 3: I used the darker blue pencil to draw The solid outlines of the room. This is how it basically looks.

Pic 4: I took the paper off so I can draw the assets with my animation desk. I don’t want to leave them on for too long because the warm computer could melt the adhesive. Then I’ll draw the assets on another paper. The red lines are for where the background assets are placed to create the illusion of depth

Pic 5 & 6: Sketched out the rough bg assets! One shows it with the animation desk’s light on and the other with the light off

Pic 7 & 8: I placed the bg rough assets first, then the foundations paper, and then the fg rough assets on top. The fg assets are the platforms or interractable objects.

9: Did the final art with a sharpie to get a stark black. I didn’t outline everything because of the art style. I’m trying for a mixture of simple Art Deco (more for the bg assets) and more detailed old Gaelic Art (more for the fg assets).

10: Since I don’t have the money, I decided to colour them digitally. I did the bg assets with alcohol marker brushes and the fg assets with ink brushes.
