I want to get back into Easytoon because I don't have access to Flash, and I want to at least do some animating, so I thought I should go back into Easytoon, so I can not only practice my animating, but also practice my re-drawing of my figure.


Simple 7 frame run, with no special intention, just trying to start off basic.

I know my flaws are lack of easing, wobbly, and choppy. I'll be posting more stuff up later this week.

Small smoke effect.

Too slow. Also, Imageshack was down at the time.

I think I'm getting better. >.> Little added effects at the impact points were for fun.

Mmm I agree the smoke is nice. The run is too jerky. Maybe use the line tool instead of the pencil? Also when running your legs don't follow the same track every time. They move in an almost circular motion.

Thanks for the comments so far.

About using the line tool....I'm a bit skeptical about it, because as I said before, I want to practice my re-drawing of figures. Thanks for the suggestion, but I think I'll stick with pencil. Practice makes perfect, you know.

i personally prefer the look of the pencil tool. but i think the main problem with the run is the legs look , i think the knee joint is off on the front one.?
but also the bounce of the head doesnt seem to be in sync with the rest of it.
just my thoughts.

I thought it was the back leg more than the front.

Because you touch yourself at night.

It's Ok, now that you've donesome mistakes you probably now what not to do, so I pretty sure if you spend more time you'll make amazing stuff.

It'll definitely take time, I know that. I know what to do, its just hard to put it into action.

I'm not going to say anything about the running, mostly because everyone else said what I was going to....
But I think that the smoke could be a little less dragged out. Skip frames, higher frame rate, what ever.
