Comments and Crticisms are appreciated.

just looking at the second one here, the one thing I didn't really like about it was the black outline at the back of the guy. I am assuming it is supposed to be a shadow on the back of the guy that is not exposed to the light of the muzzle flash; it would look better if it were actually on the guy instead of next to him, where it makes him look like he got bigger for one frame.

but technically no shadow would appear there anyway because the amount of light there remains the same, there is only more light added from the front... if, however, it is a shadow on the wall, you might want to add a bit of perspective to make that a bit more obvious

It was intended to be a shadow on the wall besides the stick figure, but I was being a bit half arsed with just duplicating the figure and putting it behind aha.
Thanks for the crit none the less, s'good to know some people still give decent criticisms around here.

only for the olde chaps i know, really

otherwise i stay out of the show off section

On the first one there is a slight stutter where the default's legs bend for a frame, unbend and then bend just before the push. That's all I can crit on really. Everything was great :)

Hmm, might go over that but I very much doubt it. Got something big on the way. :)

what wall?! I dont see a wall, i see nothingness... I think you need to show that there is a wall there otherwise it just doesnt look right.

Hence the reason it looked totally whack with just a random figure behind it, was just a quick test anyway. Nothing big or important.

I haven't seen much of your animation but this looks great. I love the force in the first one.

Its is kind of hard to tell how good you are from these two animations. There much too short, though from what I can see you look quite good. Post something longer that requires more skill.

I can't tell anything of the tests. Too short :/
