Hey stare, wb. yeah, you seem a bit rusty. The first one was ok, although the back was kind of stiff and the kick didn't have much force. The second one was good except for the arms disappearing.
The 3rd one didn't make much sense

I can't tell if you've gotten worse or stayed the same....its really just bad movements. Best one was the smallest line.

I'm going to ignore that, due to lack of any critizism being remotely useful.

What's to comment on. There terrible except for the first one. Everything is wrong. I couldn't find anything right besides the animation moving forward every frame. I'm pretty sure anyone could have figured that out so why say it.

You'd probably be right, BUT you're missing the main point of these threads.
I would let you try and figure it out...but for some reason I don't think you'd come up with anything that wouldn't be flaming me.
The main point of these threads is for people who animate to get CONSTRUCITVE critizism, learn from their mistakes, and get better.
I don't know why but for some reason you like to be an arrogant jerk to me just because my animations are not up to "par" on your morbid scale of greatness.
I have seen you give good advice, but for some stupid reason when ever someone who isn't THAT great at animating comes along you just shoot them down!
Now, I don't know what you want me to do stop animating and not post anymore just because you want to be a jacka** to me?
Stop being a dick, and get over yourself.

maybe rusty but still ok.... Personally i dont like line tool on stick animations but if ur good enough to hide its stiffness then it can pay off. Id say ur about half way there in terms of that. Good luck on getting back into animation (the first couple can be super annoying) and i look forward to future work by ya ;) Keep it up;p

Lol you take everything too personally. I'd respond that way to anyone that had that result as an animation. Fix your shit before you post it. Its not like you don't know how to, plus there are tutorials. I hate it when people post 2 second animations, and yes I did when I first joined up until I realized that people can't comment on a one move animation. Even strings of combos people do now piss me off although you can get help on those. In the time you made all three of those you could have made something worth commenting on and something someone could actually tell you whats wrong with it.

I don't know what hes getting mad about. If you can't take criticism stop animating and don't waste our time.

>.> I can take criticism when it's actually good, but I see what you are talking about Kinto. I've been practicing and plan to make a longer animation.

The first two need a little smoothing, and some of the movements seem off. The thick stick needs alot of work though, was really wobbly and resized far too much.
