hi,
here is a preview of an animation I'm currently working on.
I still have to enhance the movements, and then add fingers and face animation.

Feel free to comment and critique on it because it will help me a lot to improve my skills.

Good start,
will probably work as a cartoon type animation.

Arrival and landing OK, but then he's moving his head around a lot, too much?... maybe it would help if he seemed to have some kind of purpose to the nodding, like green/red lights illuminating his face from instruments?

And the ending, what exactly is he jumping at, and why does he fall flat on his face ?

So I think a bit of visual explanation is needed to bring the point home to the viewer...

BTW the ear-movements were nice...

Cheers,
Rune
