You've successfully completed an entire animated short. We started with storyboards and a simple premise. By organizing our character in layers, we utilized Grease Pencil features such as layer masks, modifiers, and layer tints, and we retooled our walk cycle animation on a case-by-case basis. By reusing our animation cleverly, a walk cycle and a few characters takes got us from start to finish. Think about how you might animate a short that has a similar scope to this and bring that project to fruition next.
