Its coming along well, i think that your proportions of your figure are a bit off and thats going to give you problems down the road in showing how hard hes pushing... also i think it would help to have him dip his head down towards the ground.. it gives you better leverage when you are pushing for some reason... stand next to a wall and just try and push it over... youll find you get more strength by letting your shoulders do most of the pushing and moving you big ass head out the way.. i think itd also help to have him sort of walk in place a little bit.. so it feels like hes really trying to find the traction to give him strength.

I agree with what you said about proportions - hopefully I'll get better with that the more I draw. That's a lot of helpful info. I'll keep in mind what you've said.

Hmmm, i tink ill redo the 1st then. :L

Heheh, I love this one. Awesome man.

Yeah, I think you're right AdamJack. I was contemplating skinning him before, and I think I'll do it. I need to work on my expressions :P

I liked it as well.. My only suggestion would be to make the struggle reflect on his face.. itd be great to really get a visual clue as to how much effort it tkes to hold up that iron snowball..

the proportions are lovely.

Ha thanks guys, usually my proportions are way off ;o
I had a go at giving the little guy some expression, as well as some sweating for added effect. Hopefully this gives it a little more feeling.
Gave it some colour too :D

after my first one i just had to loop it. =)

I like the idea of looping it but I don't think he looks like hes struggling and the whole moving in place then smooth as silk push then moving in place just looks a little awkward to me.
Nice job overall though =).

I'm cool now... Right guys?... Guys?

also, try to draw less stick manish next time. real arms and legs. It gives it more of a 3-d look of the character and you can work more with it.

For the time you've made it in, it's pretty good. I mean the walk sequence is spot on. There were no feet which was a little bizzar.

Here's a little txt animation of what the foot sort of looks like when lifting of the floor.

1 _____ 2 ___/ 3 __/ 4 _/ 5 / 6 '

_____ = foot in contact with floor

/ = foot lifted of floor

(to me this diagram makes perfect sense but it's probably not worth the effert trying to understand it) >:D

I'm really bad at drawing and i never really liked to draw so when i started animating in flash i knew it would take a while. The "stick manish" guy is about as good as i can make right now more that once. If i try more complex things i have trouble redrawing it.

Got the rough draft sketched out and animated so far.

Perfect weekly thing for me this week because i was going to animate a guy chopping down a tree for my next animation that i am currently working on anyway :)

The axe is too large in the draft so i will scale it down for the full thing

Man, its good to finally finish something for once...

I went kinda sketchy on mine. I wanted more focus on the character so I left the box uncolored so you could see him.
