For indie creators, the weekend isn't just for rest, it's for working on bringing our ideas to life. This is what I worked on this weekend. Music credit: Ladyleshurr - BAR WITH LESH @gemgfx.bsky.social @ttjumbie.bsky.social #animation #gemgfx #ttjumbie #anime #trinidadandtobago

Fresh Jumbie art! You know DC Trinity? We have our own. Jumbie, Sheriff, Gauntlet! This isn't imitation, it's about independent creators building our own compelling, original characters & stories. Let's create! #Jumbie #Indie #OriginalCharacters #Animation

Grateful for the ability to look at my work and say "This can be better." Always pushing beyond my limits. #animation #2danimation #ttjumbie #gemgfx #TrinidadandTobago #indieanimation

The magic of animation often lies in the details. Here's a look at the process behind my latest clip, from the initial lines to the final colours. It's a labour of love! Music: Rhapsody - Gorilla #animation #2danimation #craft #process #ttjumbie #gemgfx #TrinidadandTobago

Breaking out of my animation comfort zone. I'm starting to see what's possible when I let my imagination run free. Inspired by so many amazing animators. #animation #2danimation #ttjumbie #gemgfx #TrinidadandTobago #indieanimation Music: LL Cool J - 4,3,2,1 Ft Method Man

I put my most recent clips together to see how they flow. I’m not a pro, just a creator on a journey, trying to build something bigger piece by piece. Can’t wait to share the final with Jumbie. 🎵 Music: Lupe Fiasco – 'Mural' #animation #2danimation

Breaking Down My Okira Sequence! 🎬✨ I’m not a pro animator—just sharing my process! For Okira’s movement, I studied contemporary dance for grace & ribbon dancing for her sleeves. Her teleporting feels like pushing away one reality & stepping into another. Really happy with this one! 💫 #Animation

It's been a while since I animated Okira, the lead from Celflux. I drew from contemporary dance to shape her fluid yet powerful movements, and I’m happy with the result. Like & share if you think it’s cool. 🎬✨ 🎵 Pharoahe Monch - What It Is #2danimation #ttjumbie #gemgfx #trinidadandtobago #anime

Here’s how I create a *Jumbie* sequence 1️⃣ **Linework**: The foundation for poses & timing—time-consuming but crucial. 2️⃣ **Flat Colors**: Adds form & depth, not just filling spaces. 3️⃣ **Composition**: Lighting & effects create a polished, cinematic finish. Like & share for more!" #2danimation

"Animation is the imitation of life." Chuck Jones' words remind me that great animation isn’t just movement—it’s about emotion, personality, and believability. For Jumbie, I’m getting closer to capturing her wild, powerful spirit. Still, more to do, but here’s my latest progress #animation

Y’all don’t understand how excited I am for this

Happy 17th Anniversary, Dixie Ann! 17 years of challenges, blessings, and memories—facing it all together. Grateful for the journey and excited for the years and adventures ahead. ❤️ #anniversary #lifepartner

As we approach the uncertainty of 2025, Dixie Ann and I extend our heartfelt wishes for a new year filled with health, prosperity, peace, and endless possibilities. Merry Christmas from all of us at Team #TTJumbie! #ttjumbie #gemgfx #christmas2024 #newyear2025

I need to do more illustrations in the coming year. #artvsartist2024 #comicart #gemgfx #ttjumbie #trinidadandtobago

Like many others, I was excited to see the new Superman trailer, so I had to put together a quick illustration of Mr. Terrific. I'm looking forward to seeing the movie and this character on screen. #superman #MrTerrific #DC #JamesGunn #art #illustration #comicart #trinidadandtobago #gemgfx

When I say 80s action cartoons inspire me, this is what I mean. It's okay to be inspired. It's not OK to copy. Maybe one day my work will inspire someone as I was inspired. #ttjumbie #gemgfx #animation #anime #TrinidadandTobago

The #TTJumbie transformation sequence was the second one I've ever done. The first was for The God of The Wilderness. #gemgfx #ttjumbie #animation #animation2d #anime #trinidadandtobago

Believe it or not, with Jumbie, it was difficult for me to settle on a look for Giselle's two friends Melissa and Raj. I'm happy with their final look. #ttjumbie #gemgfx #anime #animation #characterdesign #trinidadandtobago #art #illustration #comicart

Seems like this is the place.
