Looks pretty good and is that a sniper falling? (looks kinda tall to be any of the others, I sat and watched so many times, that's all I can think of xD)

Nope, not sniper XD

Still needs work though... Should get back into practicing but ugh... so daunting.

You did a good job of making it difficult to figure it out that's for sure xDΒ 

As old and as seemingly overused the saying is, Practice makes Perfect, and it normally does ^^ It's better than anything I could do, like, ever. I couldn't figure out squat while trying to use sfm about a year and a half ago, even tutorials confused me XDΒ 



for a second-and final-try(I'm half asleep atm due to some medication and my mind's currently nagging horribly at me to get this next one out of my system before I got to sleep xP), I'm gonna say it's spy, and if not, I'd be a help in narrowing it down for anyone else xD

Well...I hate to say it.

But you are correct...XD

As far as animation practice goes, I know and i should probs dedicate more time to animating and move on from just posing(see gallery for details), but I got a lot of stuff to focuse on my plate XD.

So much to do, so little time.

oH...I didn't actually think I'd guess right...alrighty then XD I started to think you'd end up saying it was medic or something, seeing now that others have already guessed the -somewhat- thinner characters, that or you had magically made heavy thinner(stretching I guess...?idk xD) so no one would guess him

Taking it step by step is the best way to go ^^ If you plan to stick with this kinda stuff for a while, weeks, months, years, whatever it ends up being, I'm sure you'll have plenty of time along the line for more practice

Nah, at the time i made this image, I didn't know about model scaling. Will remember that particular thing for next time though.

Yea, I'm going eventually get to actual animation eventually, But making a game, Getting back into modeling, A song,Taking care of hospital bills for my dad and various things.

Eeventually, but for now i'm just gonna help others who wanna learn how to use the program.

Don't know if that's your first time doing animations, but I gotta say - pretty neat.
Love how Dash looked and smiled at us.

Nice one ^^ And I think that this falling thing might be soldier from TF2

NavyBr0wnie In reply to Takeshi6888 [2015-01-14 16:25:24 +0000 UTC]

it is a TF2 character, but not the soldier.

Try again?

A Speeding Scout.

Keep at it, you'll surely always improve your animations through time and practice (alongside with crazy ideas and Pinkie breaking your laptop when you least expect it)

I'm looking forward to what you got in store for everyone!

Nope, not a scout, Close though.

Both my PC and internet connection didn't like it. At all. Such lenght and 720p are not for GIFs, even having a 20M it took too much time to load and my CPU was constantly at 50% usage (my whole pc is lagging with this tab open).
Anyway not bad, you should fix the leg though, it looks too unnatural. I like the guy falling :3
Please, just please, do not do such thing again, use SFW or just youtube. It killed my pc way too much, and it took a shitload of time to write this comment while the gif was still loading D:

NavyBr0wnie In reply to Shutdp [2015-01-14 14:17:00 +0000 UTC]

Wellp, as I said in the description, it was just me testing out the conversion process, and seeing what's for different types of things.

I had not planned for it to kill your computer, nor have I been told of a recurring event, My Laptop's pretty old but hasn't had nearly as much issues as yours, So I will definitely keep it in mind.

as far as the legs concerned, Will do.

Shutdp In reply to NavyBr0wnie [2015-01-14 17:11:45 +0000 UTC]

Mine isn't very old but sucks anyway. It was more of a joke, but still, I think SWF (I misspelled it in the first comment lel) or directly YouTube or such sites are better for high res and/or long videos than GIFs.
About the legs, I see a lot of people misuse the forearms bones for those kind of poses, I suggest using the hand ones instead (something like thisΒ s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/2… for example, with the 1 being the shoulder, 2 the forearm, 3 the hand and 4 the ball).

It's good for a first SFM animation. Those pony models can be a pain to animate.Β
