Drakkheim Posted November 2, 2003 Posted November 2, 2003 Now that I've finally finished a character I figured I might as well try this animating thing that I've been hearing so much about. I guess this could technically be my first animation not done by following a tutorial. SwingingSword link (.44mb on2 mov) running time ~3seconds C&C more than welcome. -Drakk Quote
ZachBG Posted November 2, 2003 Posted November 2, 2003 SwingingSword link (.44mb on2 mov) running time ~3seconds Nice. Good character! I'll assume you already know about the foot slippage at the end. The only thing that seemed out of place to me was the jump; I don't think there was enough anticipation or sense of weight to lead into it. Just my opinion. Man, I wish I could model like that!

Drakkheim Posted November 2, 2003 Author Posted November 2, 2003 Actually I hadn't noticed the slippage! Guess I have been starting too hard and too long on this to notice... as for the jump I was trying to suggest the transfer of momentum from the backswing tourquing him into the jump.. I guess it didn't work as well as I'd have liked. Time for more research I guess. Nothing like a good excuse to go watch a bunch of kung fu movies. as for the model I buildt him for the cgTalk contest Here, details on him can be found under the gimpy dwarf thread. Quote
jfirestine Posted November 3, 2003 Posted November 3, 2003 Nice character design! The end of the animation seems to abrupt. Foot slipage too. How about some eye blinks or movement? I think its a great start! :-) Quote
Dagooos Posted November 3, 2003 Posted November 3, 2003 HaHa! the 8th Dwarf comes to life. cool to see him animated Quote
