Description A more-inbetweened version of my previous WIP. Unfortunately some parts need to be reanimated to actually look good, and the registration somehow was off this time, so Viktor grabs the gun from a foot away.

So the "finished" version is still a ways off, sadly. But it will get there.

Looks like you're heading in the right direction with this piece. The thing that looks off to me is that the walking animation feels a bit unnatural; the character seems to be throwing his weight around more than necessary.

The grab-and-throw is the strongest area, but it goes slightly too fast. Give it a couple more in-betweens to give the viewer more time to react to what he's doing. As for the victim, apply some squash-and-stretch principles as he hits the floor. It'll make his fall more believable. Good luck!

The more I look at it, the more I'm inclined to agree. I was going for "this guy has stiff legs, so he finds it hard to walk, overcompensating with his shoulders." Which would be nice, if it read. This is my first attempt to do a walk with actual personality, so I figure there's still a bit of learning curve yet.

Thanks so much for the suggestions and critiques - once I have a spare moment I'll work on fixing some of these other things. Actually animating the second character would probably add so much on its own.

Nothing better than a cranky old guy in fluffy cat form to make my day. Nice stuff, matey. Great upgrade, too. ^^

Ahaha, I love Viktor; the way he growls at the end and the guy cowers.

Wow, this is still great work. I mean it's like, first off good animation and you keep hold of Viktor's character really well. Can't wait to see this as it gets more done with it!
