slipknot

is amazing, and so is the artwork man. Good job all around!

short...

if it was longer i'd give it a better score, why are both parts like 20 seconds? there isnt a story to it either. you should remake these, make them longer, and give them a story. otherwise, the animation was pretty good, this could make a really good series.

not bad

nice job with sounds. needs intro menu and a preloader. a credit screen would be nice. too $hort.

Erm..

Character Figures aren't bad, especially the Black Dragon Thing and the animation itself is alright.
However the animation is boring, even compared to other singlefight scenes.
I think you should spend more time on your animations in regard to story and animation.
I think 5 is a bit generous however for your 2nd attempt it isn't too bad.

I have read and understood the guidelines for post

I watched both parts so that I could leave a fair review.

Your drawing is really good but there is very little animation. Instead, it looks like you try to jazz things up by bringing everything into After-Effects (or some other program) and adding a tonne of bells and whistles.

The score you have got for these is VERY generous considering that each part is only about 10 seconds long, but I guess most of the fools here are voting on the effects alone and in doing so are NOT doing you any favours.

You've got some potential but if you want my advice I'd say forget about the fancy effect for the time being and concentrate on just animating.

As I said before, you can draw really well so the next step is to practice basic character animation which, ultimately, will benefit you more as an artist than relying on After-Effects to cover the cracks.

I hope this is fair.
