Confound these Minecraft ponies, they drive me to architectural addiction! >.<
I kinda half-suspected that game would lure me away from Derpy for a while... but I finally broke free and worked on her with my full attention. ^___^
*puts down pony skinning guide*
In any event, Derpy is my third favorite non-Mane6 pony, and everyone's favorite easter egg in Season 2. ^__^
Here she's demonstrating your usual run-of-the-mill pegasus hovering, and while the initial wing animation was done literally frame-by-frame (probably unnecessarily-so, but I'm rusty... ), her second wing is pretty much a clone of the first one + an inversion warp + a reposition + a dark overlay for the darker shade. Very big time savings there once the work is all done. ^^
Definitely some room for improvement, though... the animation is only 26fps due to the peculiar way I did the wings using a single vector. Broken out between 3 or 4 different vectors, I can probably achieve a smoother look as well as the flexibility to export at higher frame rates without weird tween deformations.
Hey. I wanna make a flash game with derpy but you're the only person who has a decent gif of derpy flying. So I was wondering if I could use it for the flash and credit you somewhere. (Title screen, credits screen. I've not decided yet.) I can send you a link to the game when I release the first version. (I'll continuously update it.)
Sure... according to the description and the license used on this, you can use it for whatever you want, even without asking. Credit might be to get over-dramatic people off your back (and to conform with the whole Creative Commons thing), but I'm not really worried about it. Derpy isn't my character, after all.

[speaking of which, she's almost completely absent in Season 3]
