While I was watching it I thought the same. Everything is improves but the tentacles in the first one are so good. Did you change the brand of purple face make up you used in the second version?
Wow you can really see how much you've changed how you do things its so cool to see your progress! The eyeshadow was so much more pigmented and clean looking too!
So much progress was made between the 2 years! I love the 2023 versions hair and crown! And as well as the shade of purple and the countor! Regardless both looks are stunning 💅
My daughter just got into mermaiding after an invitation to swim with adult professional mermaids, she LOVES your video, the 21 & 23 versions! She said “things always get better! Imagine in 25 when I can submerse without fighting my butt which keeps floating back up.. I want this lady to do my makeup when I get my first professional mermaid gig!” Lol she just turned 9 & it was for her bday that mermaids visited the hotel her god father hosts & maintains. He’s in the UK til dec 10th. He’s from Manchester, not from the US.. but lives in TX the majority of the year. She’s her merman god father instead of fairy god mother lol too adorbs!! We first saw your Genie transformation & I subbed. I do cosplay, so I enjoy your work tremendously! My minime is also a new fan of your work! Love this Queen! You bring Ursula to life in a whole new way! ❤❤❤❤❤ love & shout outs from south central Texas!
Unpopular opinion: I love both looks. Butttt I feel like the 2021 one wss more accurate. The application on the 2023 one is amazing ofc and demonstrates your growth as an artist..not to mention the amazing transitions and definite better tentacles/shell necklace but color wise I feel like 2021 was more accurate. Also Ursula kinda haphazardly puts on her makeup so it being so perfect in 2023 was a bit confusing. Nevertheless I love your content and I can't wait to see what u do next!
