LOTUS EATER | Animation Meme

WOOO an animation meme lets go!! The first one of 2022 in fact - a little later than I would have liked, but better late than never I suppose!
I started this one a few months ago, but I ended up putting it down because I got busy with life stuff + other videos. Had a sudden burst of energy about a week ago and managed to finish it up! I had a lot of fun animating this guy again (those who watched my Machine Gun Meme or follow me on any of my socials may recognize him) & messing around with different effects in Sony Vegas. Hope yall enjoy ♡
