Idk if I can ask about animation here but if it is possible, I need some need help with the wave in dimples head, I tried doing it in different ways but somehow none of them looks right, apart from that, it might look a bit weird because of the camera movement but thats still in progress, I'll add a lower fps version

oh I have a tip if it helps!

try and look up the wave principle, its very helpful for flowy things going through the wind for example. usually its like one long strand that changes from a C shape into an S shape, but you can also add more little waves if needed! hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions maybe if i have the time later i can sketch it out for ya ^^

funny enough i felt very called out to this post today because i had two classmates who drew mob and dimple in our animation class lol

Tyytyy!! I tried to fix it, it kinda looks like a flame now but I think it might be something

here you can see dimple come up a lot, you can surely try making the speed of the video slower and analyzing the movement if you wanna get it more accurate to the original ^^
