Roman Stickman's animations

[Roman Stickman]

I cleared up this post. The old anims were pure s***. Maybe these too.

spear launch test (stykz man vs pivot man)

Punch test (i know it's not eased well and it's a bit stiff, but it's only a test after all...)

my entry for the SAoTW #6... it reminds the "another brick in the wall part 2" video ( I won! )

easing test with blue ball of death

first fight

I made this when I was really bored... I know i have to work on jumping and on walking

Tripod! (I made the Tripod styk myself, however thnx to hydra for the idea)

Beam Test

Tripod training (that's why they are so strong... but this seems to be a bit stupid...)

My entry for the LOL collab

Colours, take 2 (entry for the SAOTW#10) (plz don't tell me to PM you the take 1, 'cause it's an epic failure)

Don't trust people with brown spiky hair!

Punch test take 2 (the take 1 is the second anim in the "old anims" box)

Fireball fail! Don't CC this plz.

Cerchi (Circles), Entry for the SAOTW#11

Teleport test

The walk was bad, the lightsaber thing was awkard. The 3d effect made it actually look like paper. And the chair death was... Basically, just work on everything. Try doing tests before you make a real animation.

The first one was, well, strange, and the walk wasn't animated very well. Like Hoboapple said, the second one looks like paper. The last one, well, the walk needed a lot of work. He didn't really jump. He just kinda flew into the air and fell, and the chair didn't even touch him. When he actually landed, his feet went crazy and he just, sort of, imploded.

UPDATE (and BUMP) time

[flipside]

You should try to use websafe colors otherwise your animations will have dithering. You should work on easing, physics, and choppiness. Keep improving!

[Roman Stickman]

yes, I know about web-safe colours, but I use windows, and I don't want to choose web-safe colours always because I haven't got much time

[Hoboapple]

The only thing that moved was his hand. It wasn't well eased, reallllly stiff, the blood was just floating chunks, the guy shook at the beginning, and the spear teleported down.

[Haidra]

First off, (I'm not sure if you meant to do this) the Pivot guy rises at the beginning, and the spear doesn't travel through the air realistically. The blood looks like chunks, and he never really lands. His feet and hands land, but his head never touches the ground. You still need some work.

Eilios's ten step guide to be a crazy good animator.

Step 1: Realise animation is not easy. It takes some work to get it to look good.
Step 2: Read tutorials.
Step 3: Use information from those tutorials and your tests to make a simple "combo" animation showcasing many of those.
Step 4: Get critiqued.
Step 5: Use that information to plan what to work for.
Step 6: Make a revised "combo" animation fixing it, and add more of a plot.
Step 7: Repeat steps 4 5 and 6 until you get a pretty good review.
Step 8: Once you have a good review work on effects and plotline.
Step 9: Repeat steps 4 and 5 until you get a great review.
Step 10: Enjoy your animation skills. You are past what I can teach you.

If this was the only step, I would be the best animator in the world !
