Stitched up Heart9- Rolling Girl

I promised Esther I'd put her in an animation, so I chose Rolling Girl. I DON"T OWN THAT SONG!
Kind of describes old-ish feelings of being alone and junk. I dunno. Kind of fits because when I met Esther and stuff, I was all emo, and hurting. I found comfort in drawing, and that was something we had in common, so we bonded over it. Her art is so beautiful, and we inspired each other and watched one another grow. Even though we go to different high schools now, we keep in touch a LOT! I can talk to her about anything (yes, even my Chinese "friend") without feeling weird about it. :) Thanks Esther, because you rock my socks off! NEXT ANIMATION: OH NO!

also, you're doing Oh No soon? :D I made a video with that song last year. It's a fun one to work with! I don't spose you ever saw mine but if you mean the Marina song, god...I love that woman. >3

@StinaTheBizzare Oh, I did see yours! It inspired me to want to do an animation of me and my friends! It won't be done for a while though, I'm on break right now, and have never been lazier! @O@ Hopefully, I'll start on it soon ^^;;

she's stood there or talking. When you talk to someone, I think more muscles in the face around the mouth move like a crease of the eye or a ridge in a shoulder...but I don't think that detail matters as much unless it's a proper fbf jobby. Like I said, I am bad at this crit thing and need a lot of it myself so I hope that helps x.x other than that, keep animating. You enjoy it, and it's a great hobby so...I say go for it ^^

@StinaTheBizzare YAY! Thank you so much for the criticism! It was very helpful. I'll keep in mind all your advice! ^^ I totally understand what you mean about the hair now! Curse my curls... they are AWKWARD! Thanks for all the advice! I will try my best! >=3 THANK YOU!!!

@StitchedUPHeart9 is ok, use them to your advantage. I'll sound odd but literally get a few strands in the mirror and pull them and let them go so you can see how they...spring? also, your hands are your best friends. I'm left-handed and have an awkward habit of drawing the left hand so I can't use it for a reference...I'm too dumb to flip my right x.x

[StitchedUPHeart9]

@StinaTheBizzare OH MY GOD ME TOO!!! *is also an freaky left-hander* 8D

@StitchedUPHeart9 i am left handed too :D

Secondly, the profiles and mouths could use some practice. I like how you do the eyes, they're pretty and yet suitably absent for the song in this, but when you do the mouth like at 1:05, just be careful how the lines join, apart from that, it's alright. Like me, hands are annoying for you, aren't they? to this day I cannot draw hands correctly, they're like spazzy little sausages I can't master x///x and there are some parts that for an animation could perhaps use a bit more life, like when

Hey there, you left me a comment asking for criticism on this so I shall try. ^^; Ok, I'm...really bad at this. Firstly, both characters are sweet and I love your character's hair but when it flows, ionno if it's just the style of the PV but there needs to be a little bit more motion in there- the top layers are static, but if you look in the mirror with a fan on or summat, take notice of the way hair kinks in curves outwards and kinda seperates. In anime, it's quite prominent~
