You're very good at 3-d animation, I can't find a problem with it.

Stop being epic. It makes me feel bad :(

Poor robot. The animation looked flawless to me.

Thank you all for the great response,
Wsheerio, you sure can ;)
Joshua ice-knight, I was born with one head and two arms.Oh and the software I work in is called Maya :)
Zed, if you say epic you mean [SIZE="1"]epic[/SIZE], right ? But, since I want to be [SIZE="7"]EPIC[/SIZE] I cant stop being [SIZE="1"]epic[/SIZE] right now, I wont be [SIZE="1"]epic[/SIZE] anymore when I'll be at least [SIZE="3"][SIZE="2"]epic[/SIZE][/SIZE], ok ? ;) Thank you :D

OMFG Tawnik. Remember when I told you I loved you before? I love you even more now.

That's really quality stuff, it looks like you have the modeling down (robot looked sexy) as well as the 3-d animation shtick (they both look really good) are you planning on making a bigger project?

Well the rig (the robot model) isnt mine, Im focusing only on animation.I can model, but I dont really like doing it, the background, the sword and the helmet are mine, but the rest isnt.I really appreciate your comment, Its always nice to know that someone likes what Im doing, thank you :)

It was just there for me :/
You need to reach your potential, My good sir.
You should make a bad ass environment and then animate the people on it.

I did like the Norman upgrade to a robot though, that looked nice. There's just a lot more that you could be doing.

wow, your getting really good at your movements. The chest part needs a bit of recoil after hitting the ground though, otherwise, it's excellent.

my only complaint is that he dies too suddenly. he seems to be doing just fine and then he just conks out unexpectedly. maybe make him slowly slow down, and then just before he dies, make him reach out, or struggle to stay up, or something?

other than such small tweaks, it's great.

Epiic (: with TWO i's! :O!!
I'd just say make the actual body parts a bit more smoother, it looks too obvious its animated :3 (Im not sure if you can do that, but yeah, if you can, it'll become EEEEEpiiic) :P

Thank you, I was thinking about the stuggle and trying to get himself in move again, I think that if I do this it will become a really good piece.
Rabstar, I can do this with offsetting the keys, thats the last thing I do when animating in 3d, since this wasnt final version I wasnt offsetting them, I will do that right after I do the final struggle.

Thank you for the support, more animations are comming soon, Im going to render them, I learnt a few things about lighting and rendering, now I have to get some skills at modeling and rigging..
