Well, I haven't been into the animation much lately apart from the crappy traditional walk from before but...hazzaaa!


edit: Seems a bit choppy on the internet :( The pace is a little faster on my hard drive.

Wooo-HA! Lookit his head go!! :bing:

My only crit is that the head is traveling backward as it goes up... Or that it just travels on an up/down axis. Throw a bit of forward momentum in there!

Is it going to be a loop animation?

I'm not exactly sure what happens after the wings are grown and flapping. Do they detach and hit him in the head? :huh:

They arent detaching I dont think.he said he was not done so im guessing when you see the wings flap off into the distance hes going to be already morphed into the fly, he probably just hasnt started that part of the animation yet and he just left the picture of the man there.

Wow Deuce! Very Impressive,

Just one thing about the dragon thing..

Try to make the motion more swoopy and natural.. right now it looks slightly robotic, but PERFECT timing... just try some pauses and swoopieness like normal birds and dragon creatures.

Maybe that will help.. somthing I threw together to give you a hand. :D

Also add some water shade opposing the side of the island that the moon is on.. It looks like it's floating. :P

Even though the creature is small, the wing flaps need to be bigger, it actually needs to push the body up in the air. Not just have the body gliding and the wings flapping on the side doing nothing. Heres a sort of example:


Wingbeat example

Erm...I'm not that good at these exampley things, so I hope akpaintslinger posts something better... :worry:

Anyways really good work! I like the space bar option menu!

Hope I helped...

When looking at it my finished fly cycle, I did feel a bit unsatisfied. When looking at it it looks right, yet wrong. Maybe if I do give him stronger wing beats, it will fix that.

Much nicer, but when the wing beats pause, make him do some sort of very minor acrobatic movement.. like somthing short of the top right hand corner of the example I made, it will make it look more flexible, that may help. :D
