A stunning amount of love and sweat clearly went into this little beauty. What begins as a simple take on animated stained glass turns into a narrative, as we follow a hero raindrop making its way to a koi pond below, slithering and sliding with ineffable charm all the way.

I love how it takes the most aggressively unromantic object imaginable (a copier) and turns it into a character study. It feels lonely. Slightly overworked. Like it’s waiting for someone to believe in it again.

Mesmerizingly beautiful. Make sure to swipe through the carousel for some gorgeous close-ups. Deliciously soothing stuff.

These @cavalry.app explorations carry a retro charm that feels effortless. But that simplicity is hard-earned and built on many hours of deep learning inside the app. Nice work.

Take a moment to savor the details in these sumptuous salutes to the food of Almost Perfect, a Tokyo-based restaurant that sadly closed its doors last year. Zoom in and appreciate the subtle gradients and delicious textures that charmingly balance realism and stylization.

I always suspected that there was an elephant behind this. Oh, and I checked: the elephant is being taken very good care of. Lots of peanuts, wide open spaces, and zero mice.

Take a moment to study the details here. Some of my favorites: the tiny notes emanating from the bird, the way Santa idly taps his thumb on the steering wheel, and the poor gingerbread man plastered to the front of the car.

Hand-drawn in Procreate, this little turntable animation oozes with human-powered charm. It’s the imperfections that make it feel so cozy and relatable. That said, there’s also a lot of polish and attention to detail at play. Wonderful balance of looseness and control.

When you’re really feeling the karaoke, you don’t need an audience. Just a pal to witness the magic.

The flattened composition and skewed perspective instantly draw you into this quirky scene packed with glistening details. The animation then introduces some levity, with the mouse’s adorable reactions being the cherry on top.

Stop. Take a deep breath. Turn on the audio, and let yourself slip into the world of this visual poem.

I love pieces like this. It’s hard to pin down exactly what it is, but it speaks with a unique voice and takes you somewhere special.

Peep @louisrobert.co‘s grid for a breakdown of some of the techniques he used to pull off this unique style.
