(CLICK TO SEE THE ANIMATION)

This is my first animation I've ever made.

Please CnC if you can.

first off, you changed your brush size during the animation, which really bothers me. try to keep your brush size consistent for the stick. next, your feet placement is off. try to keep the sticks feet in the same place so it doesn't look like the guy's feet are sliding all over the place. also, try to add more frames in between attacks so that the entirety of the animation looks smoother. lastly are the reactions of the black stick. They don't look very realistic. If you have to, act it out and see where your hands, feet, and head would be placed if you were hit in a certain area. hope this helps and good job :D.

This is not bad for a first animation i would say try and put some double frames maybe to make some of the moments where he isn't moving seem a little slower then his actual attacks. Also try adding some guide lines to your animation if you haven't already, it keeps from resizing in your characters and makes it more consistent. Over all i think the main thing that is missing is practice, all you need to do is keep at it and eventually you will get really good at animating. Good luck and good job on your first animation :D
