  1. I love the aquarium setting for your character, and I think that your background element works pretty well. I would suggest possibly adding some fish on layers that way it gives some depth in the water, and when it scrolls we won't just focus on the treasure chest and person that keeps being repeated. If your'e going to have the benches, I think you should place them in front of Anber. That way there's more depth to your whole composition. Also, purple of the floor would work better for me if it was slightly more washed out. It's vibrancy competes with the color of her skin. Lastly, I would take the sign and move it from the center of the comp either right or left, and scale it down, then placing it behind her. Putting her in a middle ground between the sign and the benches will ground her on the floor, so that she doesn't look like she's just walking on the edge of the picture plane.

  2. The aquarium fits your character since both have similar styles and color schemes. For a second I thought the guy in the back was inside the tank. That might just be the pose, im not really sure how you would fix that, but I think the figure is a cool detail. I agree about adding fish in the water to give the tank some depth when we start moving. I might also move the sign so that it's not completely level with the benches.

  3. Nice aquarium idea. Though what's bothering me is that there's too much floor. Maybe what attribute to that is the color choice, which is purple. I say make the floor a bit small, or move Anber away from the bottom of the canvas. It will help create breathing room between character and foreground. One more thing. I wish there was an indication of feet on the person looking through the glass. Maybe he's on his tip toes or something.

  4. I agree that fish would add to the background elements. However, you might consider removing the guy in the background. He might distract the viewer from the actual animation if he repeats.

  5. This background seems to be a bit flat. The guy in the background is really distracting for me, so he needs to be dealt with. But overall, I do like the way this concept is going. May need to add another element or add more of a sense of depth.

  6. I agree that your character seems to be an inhabitant of the world you have created. I think the relative lack of depth can be easily fixed by re-modeling the floor of the aquarium with a more gradient look - having the color shift from dark to light.
