Super Mario Bros 1 UP Animation

So this is my first animation submission. It was actually fairly simple to make, because I didn't have to move Mario at all, and I just had to change the position of the 1UP mushroom every so often. I first found a picture of Mario standing still on some random world in the classic Super Mario Bros. game. Then, I found a picture of a 1UP mushroom and made it into a brush, so I could simply click on where I wanted it to be. It is not very action-y because I would need to have multiple images of Mario in various positions, so I could make him run, jump, and do other things. Once I find more images of him, I will make more action-filled scenes where he will jump on Goombas and maybe even use a flamethrower. Regardless, if you have any ideas for improvement or questions, please comment.

Soccer Ball of Doom

First off: To see my image you have to click on it directly. I'm not sure why it only works like that but it does, so yeah.

This idea came to me last Monday and so I started it. It's only about 18 layers without the 'The End' and blank layers, but I thought I'd post it anyways. I created a stick man at first, and copied his layer a few times. I found a soccer ball and sized it down and place it slowly going up then down towards the man. Occasionally I would rotate the image of the soccer ball. When the ball hits him, I changed the position of the stick man so he looked like he was falling backwards. Wondering what hit him, he looked around, but can't find the object. I added the question marks just cause. He then changes into a ninja (though Bri calls him a Nazi-Ninja....which he's not!) and gets mad skillz. And that's basically my GIF image. I hope it makes you laugh at least a little bit.
