Xmas Card design - SketchBlock Timelapse video. [Updated with PPaint animated snow]

It's become a bit of a tradition , in my mind at least, to do a hand painted Christmas card and more recently make a video of the process. So here's this years! The original idea was to make myself into FC so I started with playing with some of SketchBlock image processing tools, it didn't quite go to plan so I ended up with a more generic Father Christmas.

Painted in SketchBlock Lite (2.8) on my Amiga One X1000. Captured with a EZCap HD attached to the spare HDMI output on the gfx card. Timelapse editing done in blender to reduce from 45 mins to 4 mins. The audio track recorded on the SAM 440 Flex in Audio Evolution on my Matthew Carter acoustic guitar via a Rode NT1-A mic mixed with the output from the Line 6 Pod Pro. Audio and video then combined with FFMpeg GUI. on the X1000.

SketchBlock Lite is available to purchase from the AmiStore.

Oh yeah the link on youtube:

@broadblues

I like your video and music even if would prefer Santa Claus looks more you !

I see that SB is a good painting program.
Could it replace Photogenics?

Thanks That was the plan but it didn't quite flow that way.

Such things are always a matter of taste, and I couldn't claim such hight just yet, but I'm working on it

I added some animated snow with PPaint 7.3a

I did intend to make a short video on animating in PPaint but ran out of time (I'm already late!) so here's the gis instead, bit cheesey I know, but it's christmas!






Merry Xmas once again.
