Partying in the age of Covid: a short animation
It's Saturday, Let's Party! Of course, with this pesky Covid-19 nonsense doing the rounds we must always maintain social distancing.
See, not another soul in sight!
Not that he could see, he has no eyes!
I like how he does the mandatory readjust once he gets back to the beer lol.
It seems it's always required!!
Ah, I've missed the little Boomstickmeister's. A true classic. Though I must be a bit picky and call a small foul here. Any barfly worth his dregs 'n salts WITH eyes, would get 90% of the stream outside the precious bowl. And one sans his peepers, good lord, would no doubt plaster the very walls surrounding. "Just warshing down the graffiti". (You can tell I spent WAY too much time in the precious smelling saloons of Barville, when a younger sir...)
Cheerio(s) on a Monday in March
It's funny you should say that. I will post a similarly themed early animation later!!
Great minds do...something or other...
I shall look forward to it with Gusto, and his little brother Freddy.
Freddy was always underrated!
I think he now has a complex
Understandably!
What the place lacks in decor, it makes up for in bottomless glasses of ale!
I worked in a place like that once, a decor-less hole that is!!
Hey Boom, I noticed you are posting on Steemit AND Hive, but you are not posting double.
What are your criteria to decide where to post?
Aloha!!! Hive gets my original content and for Steemit I repost my older content with a little reworking.
I don't really intend to do double for long but I thought for a while to the chains settle and we can see what is happening!
Nice little spill on the bathroom floor. Wouldn't be the same without it.

I'm a bot. I detect haiku.
You gotta have that little drip!!
Hahaha! Awesome! And so true.
I love the details and the little bit of color.
I was on a discord voice chat yesterday with fellow Steemians / Hivers. We were having a hive party ( I like the sound of that ).
A bunch of us was drinking ( alone ) but it still felt pretty social ( from a distance ).
Can you remind me, once again, what program you use to make these stick figure animations?
Cheers,
Vincent
Hey Vincent. I use flipaclip on Android but I think it's on Apple as well. You have to draw everything from scratch but you can do great things with it.
Was that the one hosted by Paula? I was going to go but it was the kids bedtime!
Ah, I hoped it might be on Windows too. Searched it and it exists. Not that I haven't already enough to do.
No, it wasn't the one hosted by Paula ( although it was at the same time ), but by the Natural Medicine / Mindful Life community that I hang out in.
Bye for now and see you on Hive!

Haha! OMG! He really needs to get eyes in case his aim gets worse over time! Good morning from here!

Morning!!! The eyes were a terrible oversight. At least he shakes though!
Nice Haiku today Boomy
My inner haiku-ician at work!

Well, I see he is a proper shaker. It doesn't get any better than that. In his little world.
It's a happy little world of shaking!
He’s a goner..... He Forgot to wash his hands.
I know, he's a filthy beast!!!
🎁 Hi @meesterboom! You have received 0.1 STEEM tip from @dswigle!
Check out @dswigle blog here and follow if you like the content :)
Sending tips with @tipU - how to guide.
Out of curiosity....
how long does it take to produce these?
This one was about an hour or so. The other ones that are a bit higher quality take many hours over a period of days. More time than I have!
Well, I really like them. They remind me a bit of what I would do as a kid and make little series of drawings in the corner of thick pads of paper and then thumb through them fast to animate. :)
Cheers man. That's exactly what they are like, the app is literally a frame by frame drawing thing like that. I feel the urge to start a new one!
Do it!
Lol!! It's not as if there is a lack of material. I shall!
