This is the idle of the character from the game i'm making
For design purposes, he's shorter than it's previous version
Thanks

The way the mouth moves looks pretty weird, I get it supposed to be like a breathing motion but rather than that it kind of looks like he's hoovering something invisible and perhaps a bit phallic

Id uh

Id give that some tweaking

The rest is pretty dope though good job

Is this better? sorry for the sexual suggestiveness XD (for the second time)

[MysteryMeat]

Ye, way better!

For my next animation, the guy running

and here i'm sure everyone will find a lot of flaws because i can see them, but really cannot figure out what exactly is causing the problem

I like how "jumpy" it ended tho, it was not intended that way but still liked it

is 12 frames enough? or it should be more fluid?

[Mysli]

wow, looking good!

I would add some knee movement into the idle animation. It certainly could spice it up a little more

Nice.  Good job on animating the shading which looks quite smooth and transitions well from frame-to-frame.

12 frames is plenty for a fast run at that small size, but you could probably better space out the keyframes.
What would happen if you applied a moving hold at the apex of the "leap".  Basically have less difference between frame 6&7, letting the character "glide" more at the top of his arc.  There's also a huge jump in motion of his near foot from 6 to 7 compared to every other frame in the animation so that could be something to work on.

So there's now a Player 2

I'll check the motion, maybe a smear will do the job...

EDIT: I think the gifs expired or something... so I updated the link
