- frame 1: sword horizontal
- frame 2: sword angled down-right
- frame 3: sword downward swing with motion lines
- frame 4: sword mid-swing
- frame 5: sword extended right
Animation Summary
Six-frame pixel animation showing sword movement sequence from raised position to extended right, with motion lines indicating swing trajectory; character design consistent across all frames
Colors
- green
- white
- red
- yellow
- gray
Composition
- 3x2 contact sheet layout
- two rows of three frames each
- text beneath frame grid
Dense Caption
Six pixel-art frames arranged in 3x2 grid show a small character with green pointed hat, green tunic, white circular face, and red shield bearing yellow symbol. Character holds red-and-white sword that changes position across frames: raised high (frame 0), horizontal (frame 1), angled down-right (frame 2), downward swing (frame 3), mid-swing (frame 4), and extended right (frame 5). Shield remains fixed with yellow triangular emblem on red background. Character's green hat has white outline, tunic is solid green, shield is bright red with yellow symbol. Background is uniform gray transparency layer. Text "ZeldaBuddy" appears in bold black pixel font beneath each row of frames. Animation shows sword movement sequence without facial expression changes or additional props. Pixel rendering uses dithering for shading on hat and tunic edges. Frame 3 has small white motion lines near sword tip indicating swing trajectory. All six frames share identical character design but differ only in sword position, creating a simple combat animation loop.
