[GALLERY] ICEE's valiant attempts

[ICEE]

I'm practicing character animation. Starting with little things like this:http://s188.photobucket.com/albums/z...ttlemylord.flv

CMTs elite, donuts spear

E: and this is without any IK.

[Advancebo]

Nice.
Also, fix the left hand at the near end of the animation.

[Ki11a_FTW]

im not really liking how the spear spins around in his hand like that

CMT's sniper rifle

Strength through boredom.

[Advancebo]

The reload looks like he grabs the magazine out of his chest.

[TeeKup]

Try and make it so he takes the clip from below instead of directly back.

its called a bandoleer. the magazine is located within a pocket on his chest

I like the reload... you've done well with my baby there. Not a fan of the fire though. I think the rotation is too large compared to the translation, which makes it seem too "forced". In general the motions for both are a little to muted - I think you've gone too far on the other end of the spectrum from stylization.

Could you please explain a little clearer? Im not entirely sure at which point in the animation you mean

[Cortexian]

The clip, make it come from below and not from the "chest" area.

Also, the bolt isn't cycling nearly fast enough for a high caliber sniper rifle. It would be finished in a couple frames time.
