One of my favourite entries for this challenge. Great concept and I like the colours you`ve chosen. I think the character could be refined a little more. The "ball" looks a little out of place, and the upper chest area/ shoulders looks a little off. And thanks for the wip, i love to see how others work, wish more people would do the same:)
Very cool. Nice to see that WIP animation. Interests me that you did some of the background first before the character. It's never occured to me to work like that.
