Hey guys,

well it's been a while since I put myself through a speed test.

Since I have this new character to mess around with, I thought I'd

put something together. I literally put this together in 20.min.

I used a run cycle that I previously made, put a path in, then animated the dive in

the cho. window.

 

Don't know if there is anything more I will do to it, even though I know there's all sorts of

stuff to adjust.....

Really nice, Mike! I love the look of the render, and a nice fun all-purpose character. And...what IS the green thing he's jumping in?

That works quite well. Great looking character and he looks well rigged too!

 

He looks like he's hiding from Officer McKnuckles. :D

 

If I were going to alter one thing about his jump it would be to make his stretched out pose happen on his last frame of contact with the ground intead of 2-3 frames later in the air. that would make his jump look most forceful.

This is really a great character. That run is so...3dartzy :D Which is to say it's excellent.

 

The only critique I have is about the jump. I think he should throw his arms straight up rather than put them to his sides just as he jumps, to enhance the jumping action.

Hey Gerry, thanks for the comments, the green thing is just a prop.

I was going to try and make it look filled with water and put a splash thing in there....but well, its just

a green thing now:)

Robert, thanks for the positive review!!! I know you don't just hand them out! I see what you are

saying about him being fully extended by the last frame his feet are on the ground..... you're right. The

only question is can I go back and do it without messing up my keys....

Really like the animation. I was hoping even though you said dive in the title, that he was going to do a cannonball into the pool.
