Bobblehead Pixel - Aqua Cat 02

Description

:icondonotplz::iconusemyartplz:

I've been working on the Aqua Cat bobblehead (I'm not sure if that should be one word or two) that I had started a long time ago in hopes that I could improve it.

The first one I posted is located here: [link]

I'm trying to make it look like it's actually bobbing back and forth like a bobblehead, rather than moving up and down. I know bobbleheads don't stay in a straight line when they bobble, but it's really difficult figuring out a way to make random wobbling in various directions look decent... :(

Some things I tried to improve on:

- The coloring.
- The bat-like webbing in the ears.
- The bobbling motion. I added another frame so that it also goes backwards a bit. Because of this, I did not have to duplicate the frames and slow down the animation.
- I also moved the head down a bit so that it doesn't appear to be floating. I know some bobbleheads have the head really high up and you can see the thing underneath it, but it looks weird in my opinion. In one of the frames, you can see it very slightly. I thought that might be good enough. *hopeful*

The tail always gives me trouble. :(

What do you think? Do you think it's good enough to make more of? If not, what improvements do you think I need to make? I may be making quite a few of these, if I can actually make myself concentrate long enough. *is easily distracted*

Thank you for viewing! I hope you enjoyed! :D

Whoah, that's really effective! I can't get over how much it looks 3D! xD The changes you made have really improved it, the motion is great. I can't think how you could make it any better than it already is, if you want to make more of these then go for it, they look excellent :D
