View Profile Yes indeed, I am also reviving my old rusty self, (well not too rusty) But I highly doubt many of you knew me back when I really used pivot a lot. Sadly I have no animation from way back then thanks to my retarded computer getting viruses. But anyhow, the oldest stuff I have is from my last "revival" of sorts back in June of '09. All of my anims are listed newest to oldest, grouped by year.
Newest:

sort of a test of sorts, I like how the knee strike itself ended up.

View Profile All of them were really good, however, your 'homo' suicide seemed just a tad off...

View Profile yeah, it was weird, I wanted to do more than just flip the guy overhead with the axe, but I couldn't think of anything, and that's just how it turned out...

View Profile The kick didn't look like it connected, and the reaction was a bit off - it sort of changed direction and flew awkwardly. The movements of the main guy weren't bad though.

View Profile Yeah, I wasn't really focusing on the reactions in this test, I'll make another later that does though.
Edit: strange, this has happened twice now. I get one comment... I reply and then it's dead for a while... kinda weird but oh well.

View Profile You need more anticipation into the movements, and more of a jolt to show power. That looked very weak and shouldn't knock the default stick back like it did.
Work on your movements and easing a bit.

View Profile Thank you, that was quite helpful. But as I stated earlier I wasn't really focusing on the reaction in that particular anim, I'll do another one later that does. But I do see what you mean though.

View Profile Nicely done, i like the 2010 ones, but maybe you could work on using some effects, ground shaking, speed lines..i dont know, basicly anything, effects become really helpful later on in pivot.
