Description
Well... this animation has no purpose and the movement makes no sense. But I love animating so I made it, let's take it as a practice of "finished" animation (which contrasts my previous, sketchy animations). I love what Flash can do.(The animation has no preloader so please give it some time to load.)

Hi ^^ So let me say, first off, this one of the greatest animations I have ever seen. I am extremely impressed, and jealous.
Negatives: The actual running/jumping was wrong for a wolf, you used one hop to get from the ground to the stone, and in reality [well, art world really], it would take a few steps, or a few good hops, to get onto that stone. Also, the animation from jumping from the first stone to the second stone was a little off, but it worked.
Positives: The anatomy for the wolf, despite it's extra limbs, is fantastic. The character itself is complex and hard to draw in general. But to make an amazing, shaded, animation like that takes a lot of time and skill.
All in all, it is an amazing animation, and I can't wait to see more e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/sā¦ " width="15" height="15" alt="

I pretty much agree with all the negatives you mentioned (actually I found that the movement is wrong when I was somewhere in the middle of creating the animation, but I finished it anyways just for the fun of it). But, if you put everything you have (skills-wise) into a single piece and there are such mistakes, you immediately find what you need to improve the most. My time was not wasted
Thank you very much for the critique!

I just love the transition of the animation into the logo. It all fits so perfectly. I especially love how you did the perspective twisting. That was pretty sweet.

Really great job done here. This is one of the very few times I became jealous. Keep up the good work!

I just love how you've done a camera pan -- it makes it look so 3D!
And actually, people who've mentioned that you haven't shown his/her weight enough on this -- since it's a flying wolf, it'd be much lighter than your average wolf in order to fly 
Very lovely though, is going straight to my faves!

You know. That wolf kinda reminds me of a pic I made.
I you look, you can see that they bear a small resemblance:

NP.
Look at the face. The left side is black and the right side is white. Just like your wolf.

how do you get flash onto deviantart
I can't change the file from flash.

You just upload it the same way as you would upload JPEG or other file. But then you have to add a preview in JPEG or PNG.

Relatively good animation. The wolf didn't seem to have much mass/weight in it's jump, which took away some of the coolness. I liked the rising earth pillars, though. Really reminded me of the end sequence in "Be Prepared", from The Lion King.

Yeah, thank you, the mass/weight already has been mentioned and it is definitely something I need to work on next time! The rising pillars were inspired by Birth By Sleep, but I love the scene from Be Prepared as well

This is amazing i wish i could do something like that!

Well done! The perspective switch adds a nice touch. I would work on giving the character more weight; what I mostly notice is the movement of her legs when she jumps.
