Exilement, I really like what you're doing here.
Cheers mate.

*Stickied*



T Man...I really like how you've improved. I remember when you joined, everybody was ignoring you and your animations were crap. But now you've improved a lot since your first flash.
You got potential.
I'm looking forward to se some of your longer animations in the future ; )

Thanks benja

The zoom in with that orb effect wasn't bad, but it seemed kind of long. I don't understand why it zoomed in twice before cutting to the fighting... don't really like your stick figure's facial art, either. That'll improve with time though.

Individual frames need more attention, too. A lot of the frames had extreme body size changes, especially in the legs. In one frame his leg from the knee down was longer than his entire leg should have been.

Overall it's pretty decent. I liked the first move but the second one looked kind of awkward

On the jumping one, it seemed like there wasn't much animation, but too much stretching.

It also looks like your sticks' heads are coming from the middle of their heads...

Yeah, on the fight... there's really not enough movements. Just flying around. You seem to be kind of lazy in your animations, try to put forth some effort.

On the jump, you just squashed him down, which is never done correctly. You also animate certain sections at a time instead of everything at once. The physics weren't bad though. At least on the jump. Your fight animation had virtually no physics whatsoever. Running needs huge improvements too.

Low beginner.

I need some help with blood. I'm trying to get the effect that goes with a bullet, you know, when some of the blood trails off in the direction of the bullet.

Chronic: In the tutorials section, watch Paperclip's tutorial on line animation. It's got an excellent example of blood animation and explains how to do it.
