You need to work on the basics, but that's pretty good. Keep it going, and you'll be better than I once was! (JK, I sucked, you'll be more like GM)

Keep on experimenting, you'll get the hang of it. But you might want to increase tha gravity of your animations, work on your flow, yada yada, but you can read up on theory anywhere, and IKE might come along. The important thing is to keep animating! :D

Thanks for the tips *:D*

though I have no idea what JK or GM even means.
Aanyways what does one think of my latest lame excuse for an animation?

EDIT: I was thinking. Someone should really create a rating system for stykz animations like they have for pivot.

I liked the magic bit. Sorry for assuming, I forgot you were a new member. my JK was for "just kidding" and GM is short for GuitarMangler, who is a mod on this forum who makes awesome animations and might have made one animation that looks tons like yours with lots of green magic and stuff.

Nice animations, you are doing everything basically right. Some of your movements look a little bit weird, don't be afraid to stretch and compress limbs for a bit of a 3-D effect. You can't do this with pivot, but it should be taken advantage of when using stykz.

Like Jess said, just keep practicing.

Thanks both of you! *:)*

I'll definiately keep animating. Also, yes I saw guitarmanglers animation on the stykz website. He does use a lot of green magic stuff, he's pretty good.

Nah man purple is where it's at nowadays.

And not bad animations! Try to focus a little bit more on movements and making everything smoother.

Keep it up.
