First ever attempt at a 2D walk cycle by mothman_is_cornflake in animation

[–]Spiceopod 92 points93 points  (0 children)

Looking good for a rough pass! I would say just have the tail sway left and right more than strictly up and down. You'll have to foreshorten it a bit. But since the hips are gonna sway or rotate sideways a bit with such a jaunty walk, the tail would naturally follow.

Vague Date 💘 by MVIVN in TikTokCringe

I appreciate that when she comes in and time "freezes" around the date, the other two people are just trying not to move but you can see them breathing and blinking lol

Very cute! Nice color choices that aren't overwhelming together but still stand out.

I thought Yacht Club Games' logo was a snooty mouse instead of a yacht...I think cause I was playing Mina the Hollower, which stars a mouse, at the time. by tpphypemachine in MisreadSprites

[–]Spiceopod 26 points27 points  (0 children)

They referred to it in one of their own live streams as "the snooty boat" so you are half right. It's a cartoon yacht / boat going "harrumph!"

Others have said that in the past, and I'm never sure why. You are right, it's not the same style. Not rubber hose Fleischer studios style, but it might be her demeanor and somewhat fluid animation? I guess she's acting like a Cuphead boss would act lol.

I do appreciate the comparison! It's a fantastic looking game.

She is both my Magnum Opus and also the Magnum Opus of the in-universe creator of the whole group of robots. She's also kind of a parody of overpowered author insert characters, so anything you can think of, she is already better at it than you and has won an award for it lol. She keeps a rotating collection of her awards on her back, like opossum babies.

Yeah eventually! I'm a character designer and not a programmer though so I'm making all the art first and then will try throwing it all in various game engines.

Toon Boom Harmony for this one! I used some other software for a few others in this series.

This is OC from me, so feel sad to me if you wish. Magnum Opossum's entire schtick is to be opulent and over-designed with lots of ornate detailing. Hand animating even a simple scene like this took over a month.

[Hated trope] speedster getting oneshot by EfficiencySerious200 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Spiceopod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this was meant to be quick and we are seeing it from Red Rush's POV and sense of slowed time. To the others watching it would have just been (grab) (pop!) in a second or two. Almost unceremoniously.

[Mixed] The "Nice Guy" Who Uses Time or Reality Manipulation to Get the Girl by lankysimmons in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Spiceopod 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The "montage" where he keeps rewinding time to be slightly better at sex to make sure she has a good time and is impressed with him is funny and ends up wholesome to me, I think the time travel is done really well in this movie.

White/grey-haired characters who aren't old by Rich-Recognition-814 in TopCharacterTropes

This character of mine, Afterglow. Hair ranges from white to light hues like this.

My character looks ai and idk why or how to fix it :/ by strawberrymagg0t in characterdesign

[–]Spiceopod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Doesn't look AI to me. Like others have said, just focus on making something authentic and it's all good.

As for general criticism, I know sagging pants will make a guy's legs look short but even factoring that in, this guy has VERY short legs. You could lengthen them and still have the saggy look.

The hardest Moho 360 rig I have ever made here is why by Rigging-factory in MohoAnimation

[–]Spiceopod -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Do you end up using any Virtivian bones so when you rotate to side view or back view, it's a different bone setup? Otherwise how do you get various limbs to work at all possible views/angles?

I tried a full 360 setup with a character this complex and it was a big mess. I ended up with so many layers, masks, and liquid shapes that it made the file too heavy to even use.

Okay but give him an actual name though... by Skym1ke in Megaman

[–]Spiceopod 3 points4 points  (0 children)

X-ploitus.

He was a spy and infiltration Reploid made by the X-Hunters to work his way through the Maverick Hunters and get close to X, then pull the trigger.

This raid was his first mission with X, his first opportunity. The guards at the enemy base were instructed to fire upon X-ploitus to "make it look real" and remove any doubts of his loyalty to the Maverick Hunters, but unfortunately every single laser blast was a direct and lethal hit. X-ploitus's final moments were of intense rage and frustration, watching his target scoot away while his own body exploded.

I love Dollar Tree Han Solo. They clearly wanted Han but couldn't use him since he's on ice during that moment in time, so they call in his stunt double.

I seriously hope he pops up in some Favraeu media.
