Yuppers, I'm still learning as I go along, with animation. Kinda' fun, though,to learn from your mistakes. Technically, yes, it should have a 2nd place ribbon, but the way the challenges are programmed, they're not set to shift places, if entries are removed after it's complete. But imho, I don't think this should be moved to 2nd place, after the whole "Pain" debacle. I deserved 3rd place, and think it's fine that it should be there...
I was thinking about this piece a few days ago when looking at something:) Still a busy ass pic, but still cool!
Shouldn't this have a second place ribbon now?
I agree with the critique as well. I've learned much about animating sprites from then till now. Unfortunately, I called it quits on this piece, a long time ago. Thanks for the critique though!
My comments on the art (not the artist).
There's a lot of unnecessary movements that make the sprite unreadable. The shirt flapping on the left shoulder and all those funky movements in that thing in the background are incredibly distracting and break up the characters form. And lining up the hand with the lapel of the shirt pretty much makes it disappear. It's also got a major pulse to it that makes it look like a very unnatural movement. Instead of having a nice jumping temp of [up,hang... down, absorb...up,etc]. it just goes updownupdownupdown.
Basically, everything's moving around too much and in too many different directions, and at an improper rhythm.
Again, not about the artist, about this 2 year old art.
Yeah this is too awesome =o that pose is complicated, well to me anyways. Great work!
This is cool! (I thought Samurai Showdown as well at first glance, but it's totally your own design and looks nothing like it). I like how everything is moving but his headress(or what is on his back) doesn't flow as well as the tail coat, which is very nicely done. I think that also the colours could be less close together. But this is really nice work man!
kinda hard to read, actually.
