I love the vanishing animation.

Oh, great! Now i got it! The fact is that in game he is doing it, but it was done by the programmers, so it has a nice blending effect similar to Predator's. =]

What I meant is that it would be cool if there were an animation of him turning invisible so that he blends in with his background. I guess an example would be for him to turn completely transparrent except for maybe his outline so that he takes on the colors of whatever surroundings he may be in.

Hope thats a bit clearer. ^^;

May you please explain what is it for me? I think i didn't get it...

I second Blackbeltdude's suggestion for an animation of him blending into his surroundings.

I think the larger sprite is still my favorite, but this is pretty awesome as well. Great work as always! :D

Hey, i just made that! Hope you enjoy ^^

Sorry, i think i didn't get what you said =|

Ótima animação, como sempre. E dessa vez eu gostei bastante do sombreamento também.

Concordo com o iMoose, acho que não precisava de contorno na lâmina. 

have to admit, i gave this a mid-rating at first and then saw the 'death' puff and immediately re-clicked top marks.  ratings are both ephemeral and inconsequential but i felt it was worth say, that moment is a head and shoulders above the rest of the animation and i hope you continue to push yourself to work at that level :) :)

 Wonderful animation! Looks really good! But I really think it would look better if the blade swipe animation didn't have an outline. You should see how they animate fast blade swipes in Fire Emblem. Other than that, dang this is cool.

Ha, pretty clever concept!

It'd be great to see an animation of him blending in with the background behind him.
