Hi Dj Manik
It was fun. Love the goofy sounds and then the elephant breaking through the wall. "not again" lol

feed back...
At a guess it is supposed to be night outside since I saw the black sky and the moon. However it was hard to tell that since the houses were so bright. If it was meant to be night then making the houses a lot darker would really help.

Other suggestions but not important.
Something I try to do is keep a consistent look for all the art. I'd keep the photo on the wall because it is crazy and fun but the gray gradient stand for the elephant god should be made flat shaded like the rest of the cartoon.
Decorate the background a bit more.
I think the rug on the floor was foreshortened to much.
And maybe add some of the wall/ceiling debris to the floor (it has to fall somewhere)

ps the tutorial links didn't work.

Thank you for the advice fracturedray !

I can see what you mean with the houses and the platform. I'm gonna go back in and do some experimenting with the colors.

I fixed the tutorial links. they should work now.

Thanks for the plug DJ Manik! I enjoyed the cartoon, but agree with fracturedray's suggestions to keep things visually consistent.
