Reworked my knight, got rid of the foot tapping until I learn proper leg animations, but I added a sheen to his helm, but I don't know if I should tweak it, need some opinions on that.

The shining should probably happen as he's moving his head (I think?). Also just saying that I liked the foot tapping :(
Otherwise it looks amazing, much better than any animation I can make (see my avatar, that's basically the best I can do (and also the only thing I ever animated)).

I will do the foot tapping again at some point, but he really shoudn't be bending his foot quite like that. Like someone else said, he should be moving his whole leg rather than his foot. And thank you for the compliment :D

There we go. No banding this time?

Great improvements! :D
You should go submit it on Pixel Joint!

Well, I can't see any. Kot might be able to tell you if there's anything else left, but I think it's awesome.

Thank you for the compliments :D and I've definitely been thinking of putting my stuff up on PJ, but I feel as if I should practice a bit more, like really test my skills on something big.

You have zero idea what banding is...
It's just right after bad dithering.

Thanks for the info. I'll re-re-fix it, and i'll be sure not to band things this time.

There, think I improved it quite a bit, no banding present, methinks. Fixed both of his arms, they both looked a little weird.

i bet he stores all his magic power in his nose and could destroy half a continent with a sneeze

:v

Good job man, i only have two little nitpicks: The highlight on the hat has a case of BANDINGGGGGG AAAAAA and there's something odd about the outline around his right (left side of image) hand. Not sure if it's intentional, but it seems like there's a pixel missing?

I assume that's Toady, reimagined as a plump helmet man? I like it.
Bweheheheh. Works for me. :P

also you know what wizards can't go without?

Spoiler: the answer is OWLS (click to show/hide)

BANDINGGGGGG...

Well shoot, thought I was out of my banding phase. I'll get around to fixing those things when I get to pixeling today, and thank you very much for the info :D

He's sorely lacking in a wizardly beard.

He makes up for it with his gigantic nose :D

Maybe he's the younger (lacking in beard) brother of that other wizard (whom I will remake soon enough)

You should play around with frame speeds. It looks strange for the arms to raise/lower at the same speed, for the head to turn so slowly, and for him to spend so little time in an 'at rest' pose before being impatient again.

It looks really strange for all the moving parts to move one after another, instead of simultaneously. That's just not how people move.

That's a weird place to bend a metal boot. I'd probably have moved the entire leg.

I feel that your line weighting doesn't work. He mostly looks to be in bright daylight, which doesn't fit with super dark shadows everywhere.

Much better than your wizard.

Thank you for the info :D

Will fix it up a bit later, going to start working on another picture, plus finishing up that Fallout pic. But, again, any and all help is much appreciated, thank you :D

I think I might still have a touch of over specularity on the legs, but I redid everything else correctly I think, and I even added more animation to him :D

Nice animation!

Thanks for the compliment :D
You're welcome!
Do you take animation classes?

Nope, trained myself, and will only get better with more and more practice everyday :D

That is an astoundingly fast improvement you've made, very nice! There's a bit of a mismatch on the lighting direction, though; on the helmet, it seems to be coming almost directly from the side, while on the leggings, it's nearly frontal. Also, about the really bright highlights, there's a little detail about the positioning of specular highlights: While matte materials are indeed brightest where the light hits most directly, a specular reflection will appear at an angle halfway in between the angle to the light and the viewer.

Spoiler: LEG PLATE ILLUSTRATION (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: also a diagram-y thing i made a while ago (click to show/hide)

The only time where a specular reflection will be squarely up against the outline of a rounded object is if the light source is behind it. Oh yeah also, if the light source is coming from the side, he should probably be casting a longer shadow on the cape. You're doing good though, keep it up! :D

also thanks very much Tawa and Cthulu wuv u guise <3

Thanks muchly for the info on the lighting, and for your compliments :D will get to improving the lighting a bit today, and will try to finish up that Fallout picture too. Thanks again, man :D

Ahh my first forray into the interesting, and hard world of pixel animation, looks pretty good, but i'm definitelly gonna need to add a frame between his head turning frames.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Going to work a bit more on this tomorrow, hopefully I can add a few more frames that will make it smoother.
