Description
Blah. I've been meaning to do this for a while, but between not knowing how to animate on Photoshop and not being able to get the right design down, it took me longer than I would have liked. But I got it done, so there. I never have to do it again, at least not for Sooka. I'm still not 100% satisfied with the design and the choppy animation, but I did my best, so there's nothin' more I could say. I know most people just animate it fading into view and glowing, but for some reason I've always pictured the tattoo "crawling" over her shoulder. OTL- Points to Water Tribe

Why do you have to draw everything so perfectly?! D:
The tattoo is just amazing, and they way that you made it seem like it was drawing itself up to her eye is just amazing! I can tell not only from that that you spent a lot of time working on this, and I envy the effort and determination you put into your drawings.
Even though you said that you weren't great working on Photoshop for animations, I envy your work in it. Your art is just fantastic and it makes me strive to put more effort into my work like you do.

Holy Mother of God... *sensory overload*
Thank you so, so - holy crap - so much!! ;A; S-so much love...!! *sobs* I really did put a lot of work into it...I suck at animating, and the unfamiliarity of Photoshop made me die inside. OTL I'm so glad my hardwork seemed to pay off. There's nothing more rewarding then receiving such lovely comments like this - and being told I'm envied or that I make someone want to strive to improve. ;w; If there's anything that I'd want my art to inspire, it'd be to make others want to keep at it and not give up. OTL I may not be some fancy art student, or someone who even knows what the heck they're doing, but if I can inspire at least one person, then I guess that's okay. :3
Look at me getting all sappy and shit... XD
Anyways, thank you super much, Neon! <333 All these comments you've been leaving me have honestly been making my day, and even making me want to strive for improvement. Feedback is what keeps me going, I swear - whether it be good or bad. XD

awww <3
She's so beautiful ;w;
and her tattoo is also very pretty ;w;
The way you animated it is also very nice X3, I had that on Cadence's old app but I had to change it for the update, it just takes forever to animate it ;w;
I think it looks orange it it's worth anything >.<

Eep!! Thank you so much! ;w; I worked really hard on it...I have no idea how to use Photoshop very well or how to use it's animation functions. XD I had to draw all the frames in SAI and transfer it over. *sobs*
Ahh, I know! Tell me about it. I never knew animation was so tedious. *facepalm* I saw it on Cadence's old app though! I liked the way you animated it. :3 I always admire people who can put the tattoo on the app sheet. T.T
Pshh, that's 'cause it IS orange...I'm 100% positive. XD But I guess it's not really my opinion that counts in the end. OTL But thank you so much. ;w; *clings*

it is time consuming ;w;
oh man that must have taken forever ;w;
>w<

It really is. I'm debating whether or not I'm even going to make one for Sorrel...too much effort. OTL
Pshh, you're not the only one who thinks it's orange as well. We all know it's orange here, let's be honest...

It does take a lot of time and effort, but the result is beautiful :3

Eep, thank you so much, Silver! ;A; I always pictured Water Tribe having interesting, flowing tattoos for some reason. XD

I specifically went out of my way to make it darker. >.>

What is the issue with just making it orange, again?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It is orange - it's macaroni orange specifically. I just prefer the neon colors. Even Sorrel's tattoo is neon. It's a personal taste thing.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
But it doesn't look orange. You can still make her tattoo orange and have it 'neon' orange. Nobody else has had this issue xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
There's a first for everything but I guarantee you it's orange. I checked specifically to avoid this. *facepalm* I can't change this entire reff though - it's way too tedious and I don't know how to work Photoshop properly. OTL If it's that big of an issue though I'll just take it down and say screw it to the reff. I don't care either way.

Why are you being so abrasive?
Most people consider macaroni yellow, including myself, and in this case, it looks yellow. Still. You don't have to change the color on the tattoo ref, but could you just.. please make her tattoo darker on her actual ref?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I believe it's called be indifferent not abrasive. I said I didn't care and I don't. It's simply a difference in opinion. I'll change it on the reff next time I update it not a problem.

I don't know, if you want to speak about opinions, my opinion is that you seem a little abrasive.
Leave it how it is if it's going to cause an issue, I don't even care anymore. It's not that big of a deal for your reaction.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I already said I'd change it for you next time I update it. It's not a big deal so no worries.

Then much appreciated. Hopefully next time we speak it isn't so.. Whatever this is :/

Hmm.. I had to look close to find any "choppiness," and even then it was only when the tattoo was reducing. Looks like you did good!

Ahh, maybe I just notice it more since I was staring at it for so long. XD Thank you very much though! I worked really hard on it. OTL
