"POWER SWORD" yeah that title needs work.

The environments are sufficient for anything stickly oriented.

Movements look nice. The idle pose for the first guy he attacks looks really wonky.

I used to use that 'slashing' effect often (white slash line with black bg that flashes for a frame). I would recommend not overusing it. overall, nice start.

Well here's some CC:

• l don't like the way the black stick moves with the teleport preferably the legs. I think he could move forwad with the teleport to make the viewer know hes about to go forward.

• The last reaction to the first purple guy needs to be fixed. Okay the wall breaks as if someone was smashed through it and the smoke makes it look like that. What l was expecting was the first purple guy pops out from the other side to that other platform instead of getting hit then end up on the same side with the black stick.

• The reactions of the second purple guy on top of the building needs work. He gets up which l can see, but then he just sits there in the same spot waiting for the building to fall. I would like it better if he would run the opposite way and jump off the building to save himself from sudden doom.

• The one sitting by the wall could use a better reaction. I mean if l heard a sound behind me l would probably turn around a investigate what's happening. You could do a little head movement to show he has noticed what's going on.

Overall the anim is good and l like the action.

Kitsune I'm guessing you're very known around here so thanks for your advice. I pledge to work on poses!

Wow tention, I'm a huge fan of your style. Thanks for the crit and I was kind of feeling like i overused it a little. I really wanted to show the quickness though but im new to swords.

And Flashwire, you gave awesome Cnc, I take it i should provide more attention to detail and i will start working on it right away.

Thanks all.
