Angie Cakes Spinning


MicroChip

My first jump into pixel art and animation.

I used Angie Cakes as my test subject to thank her in a way for all the artwork she's done.

Based on the gif of DJ-PON3 made by http://dreatos.deviantart.com/

From the album:

Record Spinnies

This one is really nice, but I also know you used the artwork of an artist from deviantart to create this ... The original one has the CMC spinning

The CMC? Really? I've only seen the one with Vinyl Scratch. Are you sure the DJ P0N-3 one isn't the original?

Actually, the originally had DJ-PON3, and has been redone by several people with different characters. The CMC one is a more popular one.

Also, this totally doesn't look like a copy, in my opinion. The record player is different (art-wise), the image isn't as large, and the character looks original... Maybe a reference to the one you're talking about Kalpira?

Certainly, the style is the same; character spinning on a vinyl record, but I wouldn't consider it a true copy if all the artwork is original.

(Oh yes, and here's the Vinyl Scratch one for comparison.

Took the words from my mouth, 'Tales.

Nice work for your first attempt, Chip. I've been a fan of the record spins since they first started. :)

There are some similarities I can see as well, but the record player is fairly standard and easy to animate upon.

The CMCs vs. Angie, I can see shared expressions, but the CMC are moving too fast for my eyes to pick out whether Angie was a recolor, or hand-drawn pixels. It's definitely different frames than the Vinyl one that 'Tales linked to, though.

Similar, derivative, copy, whatever, it's still good work. I'm not going to split hairs about it ^^

This was originally by Vinyl Scratch on their tumblr and ever since then /various/ versions have come from it such as;

CMC: http://fc09.devianta...ock-d4hzpzu.gif

Pinkie Pie: http://tomdantherock...-Spin-273183162

etc.

It's sort of like a meme just like the mane/tail heart ponies.

But if you want to give credit where credit is due it should be to this guy http://dreatos.deviantart.com/ and not the one who made the CMC because as he states in his author comments Dreatos was the one who started the adorable spinning filly fad.

If you are going to mention all you have to do is just say what others have said in their artist comments no biggie really.

<dead or alive's "you spin me round">

I was absolutely humming this song to myself when I clicked to the second page. It is a wonderful idea...but why is she blue?

White just disappeared into the background of the site, so I had to tint her blue. There was already a blue theme (hair and eyes), so it worked. This is only a first attempt, so odds are I'll make it better in the future.
