that's a fast little creature :) for me, all is perfect! cannot see much wrong with it..
but, I expected something a bit longer when I downloaded a 15MB file :shame: so, back to work tubby, a little more.. and all will be fine again ;)
:thumbsup:
I only have one suggestion. Right when the character takes off, his foot (feet) doesn't bend. Try to do that jump yourself without bending the foot used to take off. Otherwise it is very dynamic and the weight and anticipation is great - in my opinion.
Cheers,

Great work Tubby :applause:
The only thing I can see is at the begining at the end of his anticipation, it looks like his center of gravity is so far back, he would fall over backwards. Maybe move his back foot farther back to counteract him leaning so far back.
But again, Sweet Work

Nice job!!
I love the look on his face as he looks at the camera after making the big jump...
Funny little critter! :thumbsup:

thanks guys, gosh, sorry it's such a big file for such a small clip, now I'm embarrassed about it. I changed the size to 320 x 240:)
Thanks for the nice words guys! Denb, yeah, I see what you mean about the feet/toes not bending, thanks for pointing that out, I'll fix that:) Dichotomy, thanks for the input on his center of gravity, someone suggested the same thing to me as I was working it, I'll give it a try.:) thanks again guys!:)
