Mik's thread

[Mik]

Heres my thread, comment on my pivots and I shall return the courtesy.
I'm new to pivot, got it about 4-5 months ago (This was posted July 2010 :P) and used it for about a month, now I'm still new but rusty too, kinda. Oh well, please rate. In order from Oldest to Newest.


^ Testing a kick, has shakey effect.

^Saw a vid on a higher level Pivoter thread about jumping on a ledge, I liked the idea and tried it myself, I wasn't trying to copy


^ Long Animation, has walking, running, a little fight and gun testing. Has a little story value I suppose. My personal fave right now.

You're okay for how new to it you are, you just need some more easing in there.

and it's kinda stiff, aint it? I think you will get better (: that's actually awesome for a new guy like you.

[Mik]

Thanks guys and if I don't courtesy right
Away I'll get it done eventually XD

There is no courtesy rule here, so don't worry. Nice animations, they're a tad stiff but quite smooth, you need to work on that foot placement. It's pretty easy, just keep the foot in one place until you need to lift it off the ground.
Here is an example:



that goes on for a while yadda yadda, then a few frames late, I lift up the foot when I need tor:


and then as a result:

Looks quite nice huh?

Thanks Alex! Im going to have to keep that in mind for future animations. As for the courtesy rule, I'll courtesy just for the sake of it as well as helping keep the forum a little more active.

Update, added a long animation that looks like my best yet.
