Oh yeah, he’s on a horse 🎠
Once I drew this grumpy gnome—and kept redrawing him as my skills improved.
Now it’s time to animate him!
Let’s do it fast in procreate
Sketch it out, add clean lines on a new layer.
Drop in some flat colors to break down the shapes.
Turn on Animation Assist in the canvas menu.
Give him subtle movements—hands, feet, and of course, those glorious eyebrows.
About 5 frames is enough.
Paint over the flats with simple colors. Don’t overthink it.
Then drag your project into Procreate Dreams. Add a background.
Select the gnome’s track, hit Record, and move him up, down, rotate—hit play.
Boom. Magic✨
