Grease Pencil Beginner Tutorial | Animate Running Totoro | Blender 4.5 LTS

Hello!!! Welcome back to another Grease Pencil tutorial! 🎉
This time, we're animating a running Totoro—building on what we learned from the walking animation. This project covers essential tips and techniques to help beginners get comfortable with Grease Pencil on Blender 4.5 LTS.

I chose Totoro again because, well, who doesn’t love a little Ghibli cutie?😆 🌿 Feel free to get creative and make it your own! Use this guide to build your workflow and push your skills further.🌟

Enjoy the lesson and happy animating! Cheers! ✌️😊
