Correct me if I'm wrong, but you are in charge, and it's your dream, so it is your fault if it isn't perfect. You didn't make it, but you presumably paid someone to do a good job, and so far, everyone here is of the opinion that it was a terrible job. It's not the best you can do, and it's certainly not ready to be released to the general viewing public...they would crucify you. Being sick and tired of changing the avatar is an awful excuse; people don't like it and think it's creepy. If you want to get anywhere with it, you are going to have to accept what people are telling you and swallow your pride.
Quote:And I am glad you like the picture for the books. Just so you know, I'll never be able to afford to pay for those pictures and publish any books unless my Indiegogo campaign is a success. You could at least support my franchise because of the pictures which the rest of the world won't see if I can't pay for them. I'm actually in debt for my artist right now.
You are not going to guilt me into supporting you. I think the pictures are great, but the 3D rendering / animation is what you seem to be going forward with, and the 3D is awful. The 2D character looks friendly, and more importantly like a children's TV character. With the 3D version you manage to lose some of that friendliness and charm and replace it with creepiness.
It's not our fault that you are in debt, or that you won't be able to publish your books if you Indiegogo campaign is a success. People get into debt when they follow their dreams, but you will only make a profit if your dreams can attract an audience, and so far in this thread you haven't managed to do that. Take our advice, swallow your pride, and go back to the drawing board (literally) with this one before you do your Indiegogo campaign. You aren't going to attract a following with the current 3D version, but if you go with the 2D version, I personally think you would have more success.
