My First Stick Fig Ani!

[Ross]

This Is My First Stick Figure animation, I Stick To The Figure Animation Board for Along time but I Look on this board alot, I Finally Decided to Download Pivot And Give it a Try, Not Sure If I Will Carry On With this but I did this In like 5 minutes.

*Not sure how to make it smaller sorry*

Go Ahead And Rip me A New one

BAH GAWD IT'S ROSS!!


It's good for a first.
Kinda smooth
Choppy in places
Reaction are pretty good compared to mine.
I say your going to get better as you go on.
7.9/10 [/color]

ROSS IS HERE! WOOOO!

lol.

anyhow, the ani was really good for a first, considering its better than half the crap that gets posted here. the fps was a little slow, but it flowed well. The Jump was a little odd due to one of the legs sliding backwards, but you'll improve over time. air tine was okay, the boucne after the rko was cool, and so was the jump for the rko.
nice one.
look in the first aid thread, download some styles, look at some tutorials (i.e. will's walking one, my punch one etc.) and try and grasp the concept of spacing.

I agree 100% with Dan, You will improve better than most on here.
I can't wait to see your next animation! Keep it up Ross. Enjoy you stay here at SFAB Board!

Thanks For The Kind Words Spaz And Dan, And Thanks For Making me Feel Welcome, I've Been Looking At The First Aid Board, Learn How To Run and Walk And Hopefully The Next Animation Will Be Better, Probably Do Something Simple, To Help me get use to it.

Hi, and welcome to this board.
I suggest that you do somthing simple like you said in your other post, my first ani was a moonsault.
I SEE A COW FROM THE JUNGLE BOOK!
Sorry, I suffer from trying to be polite syndrome.
Anyways, The ani was slow, I think if you speed it up it will be better. The spacing was good though, and It was creative.

hello
and welcome to the better board
ani was stiff and reactions were out of place like part of it then a few frames then the rest
but dude for your first ing awesome
but i guess that the figure animation helped ?

Great work man, if a first animation is this good then you will continue to get better man.

First thing I'm going to say is that if you use the Front an Back buttons you can rearrange the order of the sticks/sprites, so use this to place the sticks inside the ring.
But seriously this is great seeing as you went for a more complex move.

The jump looks great, although I prefer the more 2d look due to it being a 2d program, sometimes 3d doesn't work so well, practice that and the jumping is pretty much great.
One thing that I will say that kinda ruins it is the stiffness, you have the spacing down good but try to arch the body more and don't make awkward poses in any frames.
Last thing is reactions, which you didn't do too bad on, they would look better behind the ring like said, as it doesn't look like they are floating. Good bounce and nice movements.

One great start man, hope you continue.
