I decided not to work on the 11 second club animation anymore, I just dont like acting that much, I prefer action to acting, I also decided to make some short animation with car and here is it, the rig wasnt that good as I thought it was, cant do any wobbling, or any animation with suspension (googled that expression) because there isnt any :(

C&c please ;)

That's great. It's realistic in a cartoony kind of way. Is that an oxymoron?

Thanks, I see what you mean doc, its cartoon, but its still believable, its not bizarre cartoon, its "almost-realistic-looking-cartoon" Is that what you were trying to say ? :D

I think the build up should have been slower. It just shut the doors and drove off.

I doubt a car like that would have really good acceleration. As for the rigging of the hood and the doors n stuff, it was pretty nice. Reminds me of one of those hot wheels cars you get where the doors n hood can be ****ed with.

What do you mean by "built up" (= acceleration ??) if so then you're right, I wasnt really focusing on this, because people could always abuse me for accelerating too fast or too slowly, its just personal likings and its just about what they think about the car.. but, since I was repairing the engine yesterday, I guess it could just drive off with infinite speed, be satisfied with this answer!

Yeah I remember those small cars, we had a lot of fun with them :D

Thank you for the critique ;)

Fix the camera angle. Get a bird's-view in the begining, then proceed with the normal camera panning.
