Description This would have to be one of my favourite emotes in my gallery. The idea came to me after a project I did for school, which can be found here . I hope you guys love it as much as I do, probably took me nearly an hour to get the trajectory and shading just how I wanted it. Critique is most definitely welcome, anyway to improve this would be greatly appreciated. 24 frames of pure clowning around.

Enjoy

My only critique would be the balls themselves, or rather the way gravity affects them. They should hang in the air a split second before they fall back down again - a moment where there is no gravity. You've certainely got it here in the emote, I'd just like to see it a little bit longer.

I'm not saying mine's any better but if you look a litte closer on my :sisyphus: [link] you might see what I mean...

Great emote though!

Critique appreciated, and I might tweak with it, but I'm scared if I touch it I'll skew up everything

Much better than the other juggling emoticon. The only thing I'd say to do is move the eyes back and forth, and it would be perfect.

zacthetoad In reply to ipholio [2006-02-27 06:51:40 +0000 UTC]

Yeah I tend to agree, but there isn't really a way to have him follow the balls that looks natural. Originally I had the eyes straigh, but I thought by moving them up would look much better, and it did. If I want to do something more like a blink, then I have to use more then one "cycle" of the balls, and then it makes the file size bigger then what it has to be. Thanks though

livius In reply to ??? [2006-02-19 20:38:57 +0000 UTC]

Amazingly smooth motion, zach. The shading is also flawless. I'd like to see his eyes following the balls just a little, but you'd probably have to change to round-eyed form to do that. Beautiful work, zach.

Wow man, good eye for movement and gravity and crap. Really good job. Although... maybe he should blink occasionally or follow with his eyes. He looks a little zombie...

GibbyGibson In reply to ??? [2006-02-19 13:25:56 +0000 UTC]

I also agree with you and =E-motive that they eyes just look kind of out of place, but you cannot have them follow the balls for there is too much movment going on as it is. When I took my juggling practice, back some time ago too tell you the truth, I was tought to watch the top of the arch that I was throwing. I should know exactly where the balls will fall for I am watching their movments in the air as they went up then came back down. That is to have your eyes occupied with something. Natually, once you got that you would then move to watching the audience, but that's another story.

E-motive In reply to ??? [2006-02-19 12:25:24 +0000 UTC]

Its pretty damn good man, I dont think anything needs changed. Only thing that *might* tweak it a bit would be some eye movement following the balls

zacthetoad In reply to E-motive [2006-02-19 12:27:58 +0000 UTC]

Yeah I thought about that, but he can't follow all the balls at once, and then it sort of looked like he was just looking around. Thanks though!
