[Surface Texture]

Unique and Impressive

I'm always a fan of experimental animations, especially if they have some rationale or skill behind them. I really like your use of patterning and I know what goes into keyframing masks, so more power to ya. I look forward to seeing more animations done in a similar style.

MorrowDays responds:

One of the harder pieces of masking was making it really look like he was going into the desk, because I had to do each limb separately right, and all of those layers were on top of the desk layer. Im glad you appreciate it.

Thanks for the review!

SEIZURE

As flashy seizure loops go, this wasn't bad - good character design and animating, and I was mildly amused by the raving soldier guy - it was weird that the music looped out of sync with the animation, so it looked like there might be more to it. I would suggest lining them up to make it clear when it starts and stops. That way, you don't give the viewer false hope.

AbrahamLinconInDaHud responds:

Yeah.

violent-rific

The first shot was great -- Nice use of (I assume) the VCam -- the irregular motion helped give the impression of a war zone or wartime footage. As stick animations go, this one was well made and interesting, but the plot left something to be desired.

Swim-The-Swan responds:

I did use vcam and you'll be happy to know that I'm making a longer stick flash with an actual plot and better sticks(details like faces). It will have zombies :P

"cutting edge"

well, that was a bit of a pun, but I DID really like your use of slicing motion and then the fact that many of the slices rejoined in different and interesting ways - also, it was not predictable, which is always good -- keep the audience guessing. I didn't even realize it was spelling "end" until the moment before the "d" formed (and no, I didn't mean "deformed," though I suppose that describes a lot of the shapes)

cool concept, and I might suggest making one that was a bit longer but "along the same lines" (aah, again with the puns - lol) - oh, and the music was good.

KidneyThief responds:

Im definitely going to make a longer one (which will do more justice to the music). You have quite a way with words, great review lol! Thx =)

[RWD: 008 Nash Bunny]

SWEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AWESOME, my friend - I'm lucky to have had a sneak preview of this, seriously - congrats on the front page!! I love the suspense and action both - you NAILED it! - or as you'd say, "That's tight, man"

I'm looking forward to more Rocket Bunny!!!

Nogfish responds:

Haha thanks dude, there shall be more

[A breads life]

lol

funny stuff, man - But I will say this: Unless this was a stylistic choice, I would have made the backgrounds more detailed, or at least a little more readable. For example, the scene on the beach to me looked like he was floating in a yellow sky by a wave, so if you made it more like a sand color and put him at an angle, that could help the readability. Still, it got the point across overall - bread cancer lol.

Lochie responds:

Well you knew he was at a beach by the end right..? :D

[RWD: 004]

Epic

Woohoo - Can't say I'm unbiased, but this was even better than I expected. It's fluid, funny, and in a MUCH higher "class" than spam, despite the title. And, of course, it's got my voice in there - so it's gotta be awesome (lol)...yeah, but seriously - great work, man!

Nogfish responds:

haha thanks man, glad you liked it, I'll be making more with the chameleon ad some slightly larger parts so I may be needing more vocals.
