Review:
I started this project by creating my head and hair using the curvature pen tool and using it to trace a google image. I then proceeded to make my facial features. For the nose and eyelashes, I converted images into vectors using image trace. I made the mouth, eyes, and eyebrows using the curvature tool. After, I moved on to making my clothes using the same tools I used to make the hair and head. I made the hand using image trace and I used the knife tool to be able to make my avatar arms move. Lasty, I made 11 different artboards of my avatar moving it's arms and uploaded them into the GIF generator, which then completed my Self avatar gif.
The most challenging part of this project would probably be creating the hair. I say this because I first couldn't figure it out, so I had to play around with it, but then I eventually figured it out created sections and then grouped the pieces together.
I created movement in the arms and then made my avatar create a heart with its hands. I first I was a little hesitant of how it would turn out, but once I clicked "Make a GIF!" it turn out how I wanted.
Next time I would look into making the legs, another part of the body move or maybe even make my avatar blink to improvement my work.
