Cartoon violence! Horay!

Nice animation! Only one of the bounces (the one where he lands on his back) looks a bit odd.
Great character for animating it seems.

maybesomecake [2010-02-02 03:59:01 +0000 UTC]

It's good but I need to complaint :c I can see where it loops, there's like a pretty big gap ._.
But for the rest, it's really smooth and it's well detailed :'D

Pimmy In reply to maybesomecake [2010-02-02 16:17:58 +0000 UTC]

I actually have no idea where it loops! Are you thinking of the part where the paper changes color slightly? cus that's more of the camera's fault.

maybesomecake In reply to Pimmy [2010-02-02 19:26:30 +0000 UTC]

No, he has his head down, I don't really know how to say that, but his head is down and then it loops.

Pimmy In reply to maybesomecake [2010-02-02 19:43:28 +0000 UTC]

the loop point isnt his head down. maybe i just tweened it badly there XD

Durithyll [2010-02-02 02:42:54 +0000 UTC]

dude! i almost feel sorry for the poor guy!

anyway, nice animation! very cute! i love the way you have his limbs flailing around every which way, especially his cute little legs. i also like how dynamic his body positioning is. instead of just sticking to a profile angle and having him tumble down the slopes of PAIN, you have rolling around so that we see his front, side, etc.

nice job! makes me wish i could find an animation class.

-D
