Description
Hey guys! This is my first ever animation that I'm officially uploading onto dA.I'd love it if you could give me some tips on how i can improve.
I didn't really bother with how fast the overall animation is. I just added more of the same layer for certain things to stay there longer. Ya know? Lol. This is really simple, but I'm still learning. Please be kind! ;u;

I really liked this. I think the over all base of it really is cute! I hope to see more like this in the future. You're a very talented artist, I really want to see more of you! I noticed on one of the teeth you can see a point is missing but other than that, you choose a good starting speed which really gives it a live animal feel to it. It's also a really cute cat, I hope you make it big time in the art world some day. And keep up the good work!
Sincerely,
Aru Cougar

this is amazing, would u ever consider doing a full body one that smiles like this and maybe a tail wag for a commission?
ive been looking for someone with good animation and drawing skills together to make a kind of page greeter for me.

I was actually thinking about it but I never got around to it. Maybe I could start doing them though, I am done with school afterall.

Hmm well since it'll be my first one I guess I'll take 45 points but if I were to sell them more often I'd up the price. I'm not sure how it'll come out at first but if it comes out well, I'd sell them for more. So you're kind of lucky atm. xD I'll take the 45 points. c: What would you like?

I'd like to know what character you want, what you'd like it to be doing(nothing too complicated like walking) and I'd love for it to be in a note so I can keep track. c:

Oh wow this is absaloutely brilliant! There's hardly anything I can see wrong with this, except that it is perhaps a tiny bit jerky in some places in which case I would suggest fiddling with timing and amount of frames

awws that's so adorable X3 I wish my first animation was as smooth as that ^.^

Also, perhaps a frame would be best inserted in the ear motion when it heads from being side ways to fully side, then back. I guess, it seems kinda like a sudden jump?

Oh i see what you mean, i hadn't noticed that. o.o

I think that would help it, be, smoother? :3 Aside from that, you really did great n.n

First off, Nadie, this is amazing. :3 I love it, you did so great! If I had any sort of...critique, I guess it would be, maybe adding a pause between the ear and "smile meow". Or, maybe making the ear flick twice? Just to give it that sensation, y'know?

Aw, thank you <3
Ah okay, will do in the future!

X3 You're welcome, and neat-o.

Well i can say its quite good but i would have a longer pause between the ear twitch an the smile Also when cats meow they tend to keep there eyes open but i guess you want a smiling action rather then a meowing action. May i ask what you used to make this animation?

Awesome, I'll keep those things in mind.
All i used was gimp and saved it as a gif file.
