Hey Isaak

Really great anims! You put a lot of work in it and it really shows. Congrats!

I have a couple really "iddy biddy" nit picky thingies... :-)

One thing is the silhouette of the pirate one. Since you can't see the neck, and his upper body has that wiered shape, at first it's hard to see what's going on. In the silhouette, the head gets lost in the upper body. I think if you would rotate the camera around so that the audience can see the neck, that might help with that.

The hands feel a bit IKy at the beginning. I think it might help if you slide his right hand ever so slightly before he is actually repositioning it. Same with when he replants it down... I think just an every so slight drifft in the palm or fingers might help.

Also, I heard from my teachers a lot, to be carefull with the lower lids... Only use them when really really necessary... For me, in the end pose that lower lid is not really adding too much, so I would leave it out...

I'm not sure if it's a problem with the rig, but the eyebrows seem over complicated... I would try to get simple cleare shapes out of them. Are you using a version of Hogan? I animated with Hogan before, and I think I had this problem with him... It might be hard to change in this anim, but maybe something to keep in mind for future anims.


Don't get me wrong, it's great work... I think it's just some extra sugar to put on the top of it... :-)

Keep it up

great animation bro. here is little comment on your animation. for pirate animation i have nothing to say. but for shit high anim, there is only one thing i would like to say. i think u need to rotate his pelvis to right in the end of the scene to support his kick action. his left leg is kicking and pelvis stays there which look little wierd to me. rest is cool.
keep up the good work bro. bye.

keep up the good work bro. bye.

Hey, I´m here!

First of all, thanks for all the replys and comments, all are really goods!

ivanisavich, what can I say, thanks for your words... for me, your animations are a reference and I´m look it everyday too, keep uo the good work too! I like your character for animations, but I think it´s only for Max and I animate in Maya/Softimage :-s

Ranimate, thanks, it´s always satisfactory read this kind of words.

Seemoo, many thanks for all your comments because this kind of things are the necessary for advanced in every new animation. About the siluete I´m ok with you, it´s floatting head in some parts for the audience. About the hands, yeah, maybe in some parts there are a little IK movement, I´m a full FK animator and I hate this kind of took animations, I´ll be more slight...Lower lids...yes, it´s a little bit exagerate for this kind of character and animation. And eyebrows, this is the problem of make a personal Hogan character, because I do this character based on Hogans characters for my animations, and it´s very limited in some technical as the rig and blend shapes, are a limited character :-/ For the end, i only say you another one thanks for your comments and you have a really good animations too in your reel.

fightingthumb, thanks, for me was more funny to animte the first too, je je je

sachin3d, double reply!, I don´t rotate his pelvis because I think it´s better for the final exagerate siluete, but yes, it´s an imposible movement for kicking something, thanks for the detail.

Keep up the good work for all!

TOP NOTCH animation man. pure quality.

the only crit i can really give you is on the walking seq, i had to watch it 2 or 3 times before i could tell he was reading a book, i just couldnt figure out what he was holding.

Obviously if this was in a full story there would prob be an establishing shot to show him reading or whatever but if not maybe just a slight twist of the book so its not so side on.

thats the only prob i had with them.

amazing anims.
