Just socks!
A little less than a year (self-taught, hobbyist).
5 days for art, rigging, 2.5 days for posing, sound sync, a few hours more for rewatch+cleanup, etc.
An experiment to see just how far my Blender 2D puppet workflow will go.

Beautifully polished. Very appealing character design. Love the little details you put into the movements.

The feeling of him being upset carries.

On rewatch, after not working on it for a bit:
GOOD:
- the secondary movement on the sock and her ears
- good use of hammerspace
- him scratching his whiskers
- the eye-roll between frames 39 and 61, along with the exasperation squiggle
BAD:
- she needs an extra head pose or two to smooth out the head turn (or maybe a smear)
- her arm and the sock should smear between frames 49 and 53
- would look a little nicer done on twos instead of on threes
- he could have done with another frown pose (maybe, something -subtly- different)
I give myself six stars. I feel like I have room to grow, but this is not bad for a self-taught newbie only just figuring out a workflow.
