Heh, that's beacuse that's the difficult part :P

But it actually took me a while to see what fade would work best during the sword animation, i tried first with alpha, but i couldn't pull it off to look nice :(

So should i submit it? It's a bit short though, but it reminds me of one of the first AardMan animations with the guy walking along, and then falling down a black hole.

I dont think it quite deserves a company naming after it yet. The aarman short u r referring to is very old now and, while good for its time, is a little outdated. I would advised making it longer. I think it's too short to be submitted tho it might make it through it will probably bring down your average. Really its not about getting through blamming its about making decent work.
What's there is good tho. keep at it

It's fantastic, honestly, very stylish and my fav bit must be the signature on the blood :P

Good bg art, but the character also needs shading on the body. Nice start =)

The wireframe makes it hard for me to comment, if you take it out it'll be easier for us to judge. Otherwise, the jumping animation isn't so realistic, because he's up in the air so long, it's easier to see that his legs are too close together, here is an example
Calamero did last week for "Jump".

Here is my piece for the 1st weekly, http://img125.images..?image=jumper3wy.swf

PS the sign on the post inthe first and last shot, mostly the last, is to show the camera rotating.

I'm not seeing the whole "ninja" thing. But it is good that you are experimenting with frame by frame animation. I do like the leg movements, and try having him punch at least level with his should, if not above it. Good work.

I now you said not to comment but ... I think it's pretty cool. It looks good until he stops moving. I haven't seen animation with just the big brush done before; it is unique but looks like it'd be easy to become disorganized. Also, DBZ is great inspiration.

hah that was pretty good. but why are his legs fixed together? also the sword comes out of the sheath and its like alf as long, huh? i liked it but i think i ninja would put a little more care into his attack instead of just dropping it on his head maybe he should throw it, and if the sword is a problem, make him use a trowing start or knife.

Quick and crappy twirl kick

yeah i was gunna have the ninja jump up and attack the screen, but i would have to draw that by my hand and scan it in (im not very good w/ a mouse and i dont have a pallette) but thanks 4 the help

you mean tablet? a pallate ( sp? ) is like a selection of colors, like the little round thing with some paint blobs on it that painters use

like this palate
