thats alright wiz, you should pay attention to your size on the demon spins, at the end of every one he gets considerably smaller...and here is my first frontal walk

click me

it gets a lil bit more ruff at the end because i took the smoothing down, it was getting annoying always enlargin my fills, and the arm movement is a lil bit janky, but other than that what do you think?

"On Water"

(as opposed to "On Fire")

and:

Lookin good Shane - I just recently created my first walk cylce (well not so recently) but I found this to be a huge help. The only problem I see at the moment is a few leg movements that are out place. Not too hard to fix.

And to Wiz, welcome ^_^ You sure have been busy - making the rest of us look lazy. :lol:

nice clink, you should ad some more inbetweens to that foot tap, it looks a little bit jerky, and the movement right when he gets hit looks jerky 2, but its really good, is it an intro to some animation your working on or somthin?

Thanks, yeah I was being real lazy, if you actually manually forward through the part where he gets hit you can see how lazy I got. And no it's not an intro or anything, I just got bored and wanted to add some animation to some music I made ages ago.
----------------------

I don't know why boggle but I really like that one. I think Shane is right, it looks like a girl again, I think it's definitely the feet. They look really floppy like the character is wearing slippers or socks that are too big. :bing:

yeah, I guess it was supposed to be errrmmmm...... like it was wearing stockings, or something. As for the foot size, I guess its kinda just my style of drawing, I like small feet for some reason. Hehe I'm weird :rolleyes:

Here is a quicky i did within around 15 minutes. Its a incomplete test of movement and weight with a heavier character.

I like yours, Kenny!

Although the weight needs to pull him down a bit more I think.

Anyway, I tried to make a preloader and play button the other day....and here it is (the movie is insignificant)

Preloader

And here's a little animation I did of Zelda:

Link and Bubble (Skull)

Haven't drawn Link's legs, or the flame around the Bubble yet, but I'll get there!

And here's the title for the "Hobbit" animation I'm making:

Hobbit Title

I'm planning on making the claw rip through the background, and have the camera sweep into the middle rip and onto the next scene.

I had this dream a while ago of three creatures who (at night) encountered each other at a lake, and start fighting. Ssoooo I decided to start making a movie of it. Here's the title...thing:

Three Creatures

And here is one of the creatures, who looks up at the moon (just a sketch, working on it):


Creature

And that's all for now.

Yeah thats very good Brakken! They're all excellent!!!
I especially like "Three Creatures", "Hobbit Title" and "Link and Bubble" but the turning of the head on "Creature" is awesome and I'm really inspired by that! and the explosion thats at the end of "Preloader" is cool too! good job! :lol:

Here's a couple a did a while ago:

Horse to Ball
(this is of a basic(very basic) Horse turning into a Ball (Random)) :)


BOING!
(just a basic ball bouncing with insinuated sound) :P

Well I've got more to come but I'll let you guys have a go!*he he he...*

Till then

zorg im not trying to be mean....but that fire....... :worry: well lets just say it wasnt the best, try lowering the fps by atleast 4, and inbetweening it alot more, and youll prob have good outcome, also i dont think that you should try and copy every frame that adam does, make your own movement and stuff...

The fire looks alright Zorg, but I agree with Shane: Take the fps down. waaaaayy down. And it sort of looks like there's a burst of flame, and then it calms down, but still, :D

Hey, Shane, your walk looks pretty good. The right leg changes shape a little when it comes up to take another step, and the "body" looks very...... gelitanous?

But the thing I liked most was the colour. Most (or all) of the walk cycles so far have been white (and black), so yours really stands out!

Thanks Wiz! If I ever get back into reading the Hobbit, I'll keep going on it, but otherwise.....*FLUSH*

It isn't very hard to turn heads, the only thing that looks glitchy are his horns (damn weird shaped horns... <_< )

Did the loading work on the preloader? did it? huh? huh? :o
