You should work on poses and spacing, that's pretty much all I can say.... and maybe a little on stiffness you don't seem to often move every joint ever frame.

Keep it up !

Definitely an improvement over your previous gun shooting animations. If you took what I said from my thread and applied it to this animation, I would like to clarify that some vertical gun kick is still needed in addition to the back kick especially for the higher powered battle rifles. I think the kick back should be emphasized by a few pixel and have some vertical recoil as well. Other than that I feel the legs should have been constantly moving even by a tiny bit not because of the recoil from the gun but because the prolonged stop in that pose makes the stickfigure look stiff.

Here's a video of someone shooting the SCAR-H. Of course, many people handle recoil differently but it's important to get a good sense of how much power a gun has to make the reaction suit it. Keep it up; you're definitely progressing well.

Thanks. Yeah, it definitely seems like it's the hype now. I still haven't started yet because Caleb hasn't released his character, but I can wait.

I just want to get it done quickly. I can't wait to see what you and Tuna come up with for the FFA.

No, no no. Don't rush it, never rush an animation.

There is a lot of cool things you can do with Guns in Pivot~
I am looking forward to seeing you piece all of these movements and tests into a lenghty animation

Work on stiffness, and feet sliding, but other then that I can see some good backbone habits coming into play! Keep it up :)

Oh, no, never, I'm not going to rush it as quick as I can, I'm just going to do it the best of my ability and see it through as quickly as I can without it hindering anything. I just like seeing how much faster I can animate than I previously did, but no, I'm in no major rush.

I like your punches they show quite a bit of power but,you also need to show this in the legs like when you went for the final punch ok
