@Sunlightsunshine
It really does. It deserves to get featured.

This looks amazing!

Holy shit are you Serious.

Digital animation is a tool that can work wonderfully if employed correctly. Just look at Rick & Morty, for example.  
People knocking digital animation just because some people don’t know how to use it are missing the point.

@Keith Mowz  
After reading your comment, I think I’ve developed a new-found hatred for flash animation (And digital animation is general) now.

@DragonBoi471  
Not really. A good chunk of the consequence of the characters’ designs was the fact that they were being animated in flash. That’s why they all generally have the same base body shape and whatnot.

This is what FIM would look like if it aired in 2006.

Humorous phases of pony faces!

Artistic expressions do not always have to make sense, you know. It may be a traced gif, but the way the artist portrays it gives off an old-timey retro feeling that a lot of people evidently like.

 
Very Impressive.

Awesome!

@Exedrus  
Even traced, its still an impressive amount of time and effort to do so by hand with physical media then construct it into working animation.

@Minus  
Most people probably don’t realize it was traced. I know I didn’t when I first saw it.

Lotta time, paper, and ink used here. I hope it helps you learn something about the show’s animation, but it’s really not even remotely an impressive result. I’m not trying to belittle this, but rather, question why it has over 500 upvotes when it’s a traced gif. Not seeing the sense there.

Now that is talented. Well done! Bravo! /)

Been a while since I saw stop motion, last time was when I saw the final episode of Robot Chicken.

I love the dancing tape!

Nice, reminds me of watching the Shirokuma Cafe credits scene.

To my knowledge, this artist isn’t SELLING THEIR TRACES FOR PROFIT.
