Hey guys sunnydog1 here and I just got done with this render. It took a long time to make (I had to mess around with the wolf a lot). I am 11 and I am pretty new to animating. I know the dog ears were really high up but that was something that I couldn't fix. I might use this for my channel. I want some tips and suggestions on what I should animate next.

The person and the wolf look fine I suppose, but I would fix the lighting, text, and texture of the block he is sitting on.

Like the other person said, there is a lot wrong with this. The Text and background a really plain and just scream spring and a cheesy Easter holiday. The field of view seems rather bad, as well, considering that there a is a lot of empty space (way more than would be needed for a border). I'm not sure why you wanted the block to "be like that" but it looks rather bad, as well. It needs some sort of better texturing as it projects a lack of effort and I assume that is not what you were intending it to say.
1: Make the text and background more interesting.
2: Fix the characters' head orientation (make the person actually look at something or the camera and make sure there is no clipping/conflicting occlusion).
3: Put some unique textures (or at least MC textures) on the block. It's in the foreground, make it look good. Definitely remove the really harsh black shadow on the top of it. This can be done by adding a low-key top light to the scene. Look up some basic lighting rig setups (there are a lot, and the best ones are the custom ones you think up for your specific scene, but for this a generic three light (1 key light, 2 fill lights) setup would work fine).
Tl:dr: Put more effort into it. This reads more as an in-progress screenshot than a finished piece.

Yeah The ears were a bug in the rig that I used so I couldn't fix it. The text I will change in my next render. Also the block ad my character were meant to be like that. But thanks

The posing is okay I suppose, but the wolf's ears clip through the character's hand and the character is just staring at their feet instead of at the viewer. Changing those two things would do a lot for this render's quality, in my opinion. Everything else here looks as though it has very little effort put into it. That text font and color make it look like it came out of Easter season in the '90s and the block they're sitting on could at least have been textured like a grass block or something. That would look a lot better than what it is now, since right now it looks like a shoe box, in my opinion.
