Hainosaurus is now congeneric with Tylosaurus. I guess that means that it's Tylosaurus bernardi now.

Here's my first fight since a long time. I've tried to put some more easing, but the movement at the edges of the screen are fucked, mostly because I was unable to access the full functionality of the stk due to the size of my screen, so please don't judged me by that. Improvement? [/p]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ OLD VERSIONS ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Man, it's been nearly a year since i've last done an actual legit animation, so i thought i'd be a little rusty. Turns out I'm fine, but I want to know if I did better or worse on this animation.
I've been practicing for awhile on some private animations, and now I've been working on this new video that's almost done (only the stupid audio has to be done, and then its on youtube), and this is the animation for the entire fight. How good am I now?
If youtube doesn't work, heres the more clear animation
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hello, how good are my animations? Thanks

I would not say Low Beginners are "horribly stupid" - they are worth just as much respect as any other rank, they haven't been around for as long, and that is all.
Your animations have great movement, and your style is kept even while the animation is still going for longer, many beginners cannot do this. All you need to work on is acceleration and desaceleration, really - the movements are too sudden, but I really like your style and I'm looking forward to seeing more from you.
Almost Medium Beginner.

Very well done! I would say these underwater fights don't necessarily need too much easing due to the relatively constant movements of the animals, but it should still be incorporated in certain aspects of the animation in order to make certain movements more convincing and fluent (tutorials for different types of easing can be found in the animation tutorials thread). Your movements are very advanced and smooth generally, despite being occasionally too abrupt and slightly disrupting the flow of the animation. Overall very nice work and you have great potential to become an intermediate when key aspects such as easing are incorporated more into your animations. High low beginner- low med beginner?

themechabaryonyx789I must agree easing is different for underwater movements, a different type should be used in my opinion. Agreed with your post.

I think these are some of the best Beginner animations on the site! Seriously impressive stuff. Let's see how we can get you to Inter.
1. Work on accelerating and decelerating. Your animations are incredibly smooth for beginner, but they don't look realistic because the movements just... happen. The fighters don't ease into a movement, it just starts. It makes it looks jittery, which is even more noticeable when your animation is as smooth as that. 2. Work on stiffness. Your movements are pretty advanced for a beginner, but they don't flow very well. Especially with SeaCreatures, you have to make the movements feel more realistic and more organic. All of the fighters in the first video had completely stiff tails. It looks weird, and again, this is even more noticeable when you see how smooth your animations are. 3. Your movements are very complex, so this does not take high priority for now. However, you could work on practicing your movements to find a way to animate them consistently that works for you. This is especially important after you learn easing, because otherwise you will end up with choppy animations.
That's all for now! Incredible work dude, honestly. I can see you getting Intermediate in no time with this incredible smoothness and advanced (but not perfected) techniques.
Med Beginner 100% sure.

Thanks for the advice! I did some practice lately, and I think I made a lot of improvement now. I also found out about this new technique that I dont see in the tutorials, which is a new way of cycling (No, not the bike cycling, im talking about cycling like repeating walking movements, making look like a cycle). I might post a tutoiral about that when I have the chance, but for now, the new video is what I have.

A good way to make a cycle is to select all of the cycle frames then paste them as many times as you want. Of course, that can lead to some weird looking movements depending on the animation, but if you mean a loop then that also works.
As for your animation, that's impressive. A lot of improvement there and I love the way you continue it! The gore effects are very well applied, the animation lasts for a while, you can't tell who is going to win. No matter how new something is to you, you seem to already master it. The fluency is fantastic as well! I can spot some few issues which are mostly shakiness - try to keep movements within a trail, that is, they don't leave their path randomly. Of course, a movement has to go out of its path at some time, so when it does, make sure you use acceleration and desaceleration, which you have already learned very well, and make sure you know where you want the movement to go. That way, you'll avoid a lot of shakiness and you will rank up even more.
You have increased to High Beginner I would say, that is a brilliant animation!

Your flow improved, although I'd say your easing did not. The momentum is just not there, and it's very stop-and-go. Try to keep a normal acceleration, and make sure each joint is gaining and losing speed in a normal pattern. Your problem with easing here is basically because your flow improved very suddenly, you'll get all that fixed without too much trouble. I love the flow though. You definitely thought a lot more about each joint more individually. Would've probably been better, that stick is just quite limited.

lol, what rank do you place me at? Update- posted a new animation, but the animation at the edges of the screen are very bad, most due to the inability to access the edges from teh size of my screen.

fuck, now i just demoted myself XD all i want is to be at least a low intermediate and im fine. At least I'm around the corner of making another fight just for practice, even thou I still need to make the stks for it.
