For the last stage of my drawing project, I got stuck on the animation. I am not sure if I did something wrong or followed the wrong steps, but I was unable to animate my drawing which made me quite sad! I tried a few variations of animation such as translate and rotate, but none worked the way I intended. I am still happy with my drawing though. I wish we had more visual tutorials and maybe even class workshop times to come together and discuss these things because asking for help when everyone is working at their own pace and hours make it very awkward and inconvenient to reach out to others. I would eventually love to learn animation but I think timing of this project was not it.

Description
(For this project, i want to draw 1-2 ghosts that move in a repeated manner as if they are floating.)

Planning
(Milestone 1: Function: Ghost-face This miletone includes the drawing of the ghost-face as a function so it could be repeated for each ghost. (I do plan on using Ghostface as my inspiration for these! :) But I think I might have to compromise on its fluid design as I don't think I'm equipped well enough to do a color fill in a complex shape just yet. Mine would probably look more triangular for the mouth and more of a whole circle for the eyes, unless I can overlap two colored in circles to create the shape I need.
Milestone 2: Function: Ghost-body This milestone function draws the body of the ghosts. I plan on adding only 3 "frills". In total these three frills will include 10 circles of different radii to be drawn to different extents in order to create curves. It seems a little daunting at the moment but I think using curves for my typeface prepared me to take on this challenge. If needed, I can divide this function into three parts to ease the work load of each session I plan on dedicating to this project. In that case this milestone look like: Milestone 2.1: Ghost-body F1 Milestone 2.2: Ghost-body F2 Milestone 2.3: Ghost-body F3
Milestone 3: Animation Using Superturtle I plan on adding a simple animation of left right motion. Maybe I can move them in a circular path as well in a loop. )
