Quick-Crit 2010

I agree with lag. I think you should retoole the second half of the animation. When operating a bullpup rifle (from what I understand) it is actually pretty difficult to insert the magazine that way. What they do (I think) is press the butt of the rifle against their breast and rotate it on the X axis so that the magwell is facing them, and insert the mag that way. I think you could create a much more interesting animation that way. Also, the gun has a bolt catch, so you should operate that instead of the bolt. I have no idea where it is though, ask ross. >.>

Also you should render your animations with about 10 blank frames on the end (just resting at origin) so that youtube doesn't do its gay little cut off thing.

That's what I was forgetting! Hold on, I'll go re-render and upload it again and just replace the video in that post there.

Thanks for the crit.

I just drew myself

Very well done, what was it made in?

e: I was gonna say Illustrator because it looks like a vector image, but when you look closely it looks like you used brushes or a combination.

[ExAm]

I don't do vectors (I don't have illustrator, and I don't do any stuff that requires a hugely scalable vector image) . It was all in PS CS4 with the brush tool, full hardness, with pressure sensitivity.

Looks great to me. The only thing thats a lil weird looking are your sideburns

Couldn't figure out how to go about closing that part off, so I just left it that way.

Maybe put a little line where the full edge of the sideburn would be? Just to hint that there is a shape there, but at the same time, not drawing too much attention to it.

Just learning photoediting. photoshopped image of an eye (actually used PSP X2) to create the image. C&C on how I can improve.

A photoshopped image of an eye. Clear up the eyes, changed the colour, added eye liner and fixed the skin tone a bit.
