yes,thats usually what happens when u whistle:confused: cartoons just exaggerate that.

There nothing else to it,just give ur character here sum cheeks expanding in and out like mickey there and your good to go.

theres no need to think its more complex than it actually is,looking foward to an update.

p.s. u can't use the flash tags if ur linking from imageshack

Jup, it's looking realy good, the cheeks made a big difference. I would add a little tunnel/circle at the front of the lips to make it more aparant that he is whistling.

[NOOB!]

agree with terro.

right now it looks like he's chewing something

[flashcartoons]

to me it looked like hes spitting

[Terro]

It's a mix between whistling and chewing atm, but your more on the whistling side.

[flashcartoons]

ok

I have a short posted in the theater page under the heading "A cartoon based on an old joke", in which the character Adam, in the Garden of Eden is whistling the tune"Stranger in Paradise". If you haven't viewed it, check it out. For some reason there has been virtually no response to this piece since I posted it a couple of weeks ago. I'm puzzled as to why. :confused:
