View Profile I don't like how the sticks seem to fall apart after being slashed by the sword/spear.
In my opinion, thats what made it original.

Other than that, it was great.
That's another one of those effects that makes an animation so different from others. It's probably another reason he got 3rd over 8 people. It was well done, and the sword multiple limb departure weapon was so nice, it blended with the theme of the movie.
Just great.
Hmmm, I believe I instructed all the animators to NOT show anyone the entry until instructed further. So I'd be very interested in how you guys managed to see these prior to release?
And then be so dumb as to announce it to the world so I would know...
You two (Not Zulu) are probably the dumbest people on this forum. That says a lot too.
And also, soon to be OWNED!

View Profile Well, Tman, good job. This was a REALLY smooth animation from you, and I mean REALLY smooth. The falling apart of the stickfigures limbs was amazing. It was never choppy.
Sword movements were awesome; very fluid. The only thing I didn't like was that there never seems to be enough force in movements. Movements are smooth, but the anticipation of them to don't seem to be enough compared to how fast the strike actually is.
But whatever, that was a good animation.
It'd be great with blood.
Congratulations on getting 3rd place. What do you win?
EDIT: That's a lot of money you're getting. Excellent backgrounds, by the way.

View Profile The top enterys where so very good, that its a shame we had to pick places in this contest. They where all so high quality, I think if 300 had the battle with the giant it would have been a 1st or 2nd, but I guess time's a factor.

View Profile I normally watch a movie like castle and stop. This movie, however, is extremely original and high quality. I'm watching it for the 4th time learning from it.
I must repeat myself by saying well done.
WELL DONE!!!! :3
Fight scene at the end could've improved I agree, however.
Was the sky done in photoshop? Teach me!!!

View Profile Hey Tman if you notice the dimensions seam off, because there is that line at the bottom, Can you send me the right dimensions. W and H,
Also if you end up updating or making changes to the animation such as there is a black strip that might need to be bigger, send the new swf over to me, and also - If you do end up re-exporting a new swf Id suggest lower the sound quality a bit, because its over 4 megs, thats very large for how short the movie is.

Actually I taught him how to do the sky. It takes a hell load of time and precision. It's a secret technique that has been passed through generations.
(Tman's gonna laugh when he sees this ._. )
It's just random scribbles + blur >_>
