Title: Warrior
Post by: [Friends] Ro$$ on August 27, 2016, 04:52:36 am
I'm working on animations for an enemy. It's still WIP, but I feel like the animation is good enough to get some critique on it.
Thanks for the help!

Too slow, I removed two frames and fixed a frame where the knee froze slightly and another where the leg wasn't extending enough in preparation for contact with ground!

Wow that's a huge improvement! Thanks Meat. I can't even see much to improve.
I had to enlarge it and I fixed some smoothness issues. Still need to work on that head.

Some small tweaks, felt like it was missing a frame and didn't stop at the right point to me!

Thanks Meat! I think that one is a bit too far extended, his wrist would twist off I think.
I did a couple little edit to try to fix this.

I'd say number 2, looks snappier. It still has that feeling of an incomplete movement though, like the swing's not gone all the way it needs to.

Here's a little update, hopefully it helps some. It's mainly a fix to the legs and I added in the crouch that I noticed you had done in your edit.

Edit: Actually I really like what you have done with the legs, especially the little twist in his foot at the end, so I've switched the legs to yours. I still think the sword goes a bit too far back in your edit though.

Added some more to the slash. Sorry about a bit weird timing, updating to the newest OS broke the software I was using to compile gifs :( The shockwave is still very wip.

The landing needs a bit more followthrough, duck his head and shoulders into the slam some i think
