Description This is my entry for Bobby and Kei's contest to do one of their pieces in your own style.

I went with mandy [link] vs the Samurai [link]

I didn't have the internet for reference so I thought the samurai was actually a suit of armor, and I remembered him having an absurd number of swords (six in this case)... so I choose to call creative license on that

My style in this case is movement, in the truest sense of the word ^_^ instead of photoshop water color or painting or what have you.

Enjoy people ^_^

hey this is really good! i like the way it's really clear and fluent even when most frames keep just about sketchy, but they contain the gesture enough to be read!!! love it 8D

I did what I could to incorporate Bobby's painting to get that, and I thought what better than after you defeat your enemy of 10 seconds by blowing a bubble.

Hm, It's nice, I'd say that sometimes you get a bit sloppy on some parts where I say you could have made it more clearer. I figured out myself that one bad frame in an animation can throw everything off, but I know you already knew that. Good stuff. I'd say, increase on the quality is all to make it look more pro, and aim for more pro work to keep your gallery attractive. Hope this helps.

slyshand In reply to Neoanimated [2009-06-07 23:39:02 +0000 UTC]

Thanks dude, and no worries. I did everything from the first time you see the armor on yesterday and today, deadlines and whatnot ^_^

I may come back and clean it, but I'll probably concentrate on making my newer work cleaner

and if 1 bad frame kills it, then this thing is dead through and through ^_^;

your advice is always welcome man.

Thanks a lot man, I really wanted to smooth out that bit more, keep it all at the same framerate, but you are the second to say it, so I ain't lookin a gift horse in the mouth... so to speak. Wish me luck for the contest
