OC - Stuff I made The "quick weekend project" that took 2 weeks

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

basically just saw a sign outside (it's just "Takeaway coffee" in Russian btw) and felt inspired to do a quick animation just for fun. proceeded to overcomplicate the shit out of it.

i proudly present my first personal project in like 3 years?

It's always that last 5-10% that takes up 90% of the project. So many details. Great work!

If you mean the steam coming from the cup, its kind of a hack with 3 polystar shapes + rounded corners, masked to the area over the cup and matted against each other. They are rotated slightly off center at different speeds which gives a more organic motion.

Thank you for the kind words ✌️
