Description
This one is long.... one of the longest I ever made...but here is a NEW VERSION IN FILM [link]
Sam is a small Robot with a gun and electric swords and Demand is a huge Monster with at least 6 arms... hehe...
This is a 3D animation done in Maya.
More info coming soon...
Enjoy!
p.s. here is a website of a guy who created monster I call Demand [link] i animated it for his demo reel and he let me keep the model for future animations of my own...

I like it but i think the extra 4 big arms don't really add anything to it. It would be just as good without them as I notice they don't really move much

Its really nice. The movements are quite fluid. There are some things I would fix, but then again, every animation can be improved. Looks awesome!

like what? can you be more specific...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Sure!
Well, I watched it a few times and I can see that, for example, towards the end of the animation, when the soldier uses both blades to pierce the monster's head (?) I think some more dramatism could be added to the anticipation. As it is, the soldier doesn't seem to be lean back enough for that final thrust.
I can also see that the limbs of the monster seem a little stiff and are lacking some follow-through (dunno it it's because of the model itself or what). A little more of it adds a lot of realism to the movements. Even if it's a robot, a bit of additional FT helps big time.
Maybe add some dramatism to some of the actions. Sort of to give the soldier some extra heroism, make him look like his is really sure and capable of kicking that overgrown beast's mechanical butt.
I like the part where the soldier climbs the monsters arm, the little jumps they do (although the little last jump the soldier does upon dropping the gun could have a little extra hang time) and the little bounce the monster does upon falling.
I really hope you don't take this too roughly. I'm sure if you fix a couple of this things the animation will reflect an improvement

I was watching this amazing piece, and was startled by the lady-like, "Oh My God!!!" squeal! I jumped up, threw on my cape, flew around the house, and had to stop short when I realized that the squeal..came from me!...d'oh. GREAT work!

hey zoom zoom, great animations dude, how long did this take to render?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
to render... ?.. not sure. i don't remember.. I generally don't let a single frame render longer then 2 minutes so this was no more then 4-5 hours...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh, ok, thanks for the reply! Again, nice animation, I like the color-changing light-sabres
The monster is cool too!
anyway, I bet render time is nothing compared to rigging & keyframe animating time right?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
rigging was done a long time ago by a guy in one of my classes...
while animation took me about 14-16 hours i want to say...

Wow, when i first saw it, i thought it was from a game.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
well... its sort of a dream for to work for a game company on action animations... i mean, I do it now, but more things like runs and rolls... not so much of fighting..

nicely done dude. particularly going up the monster's arm, that couldnt have been easy.
