Lillith's PSA Thread

[Velen]

MOAR RANDOM CHANGES.
Changed up 4th side/down a bit, but kind of negligible compared to even 2nd up so no point showing them off, eh.
Also did a thing on the 3rd up, the only animations that was changed up completely and I love its new animation, haha.
ANYWAY.

The return motion in the last 7-8 frames needs to definitely be touched up... Well, the whole thing does, but the last few frames irk me the most.

Well... I can point a few things out from this.

- Lucina's feet are sliding back into the idle position during the return sequence rather than taking a step or two. This would probably help if you can make her do it quickly.

- The end of the sword swing could be exaggerated a little bit more, to show the weight of the Falchion, like have her wrist shift so the angle she's holding it changes slightly in the direction of the swing. at the end of it's arc. You could also have her arm straighten out at the end of the swing as well.

- When Lucina finishes her swing, her left arm comes up, you could have her hold it in place for about 3-4 frames before having her swing it in the direction she turns to return to idle stand. It'll desynch her arm from the rest of her body's movement and make the animation much more lively.

You're doing really well though. Keep it up! • w •

The feet sliding thing is what she does in Smash 4. Her, Marth, and Roy all do it for some of their animations. Granted I understand it's dumb... but meh.

The sword swing shouldn't be exaggerated... Lucina even states it herself how well and effortlessly she can swing that sword. I think a straight swing will be fine.

The last point I do agree with though.

[Large Leader]

Right now, it LOOKS like you didn't edit the transition between the swing and the wait. Add some keyframes in between so it doesn't just look like a random rotation. Lucina has a bit of right leg movement while she's rotating back to her wait. Good thing you noticed it yourself v:

[Nao-chan]

Bump because relevant. I have a new thing I did! Enjoy. Fully animated in BrawlBox... Spent 7 hours on this because perfectionist. Have a gif.

The ending seems a bit janky, but it still looks good overall. :U

[Nao-chan]

I knew someone would mention it. Blame the annoying ass HipN bone. I tested it in game, and it works fine.

[Lillith]

I'M STILL DOING THINGS TOO. I SWEAR ;_;

Lucina/Marth's new useless meteor smash. I like the animation, and I like that it's a little faster, but I don't like how useless it actually is at its job.

Still a bit funky, but i'll fix that later... ...maybe.

[Nao-chan]

Got two more to show. I just revised Roy's Smash U wait and did his Wait2.

Dem sum classy animations

[KingJigglypuff]

Wait1 is very solid. Wait2's feet are a bit shaky, but overall it's great.

I know you probably noticed these, but I wanted to point them out for others, most of it looks good though:

- The way her sword arm moves is kinda weird after the slashing motion. Her arm snaps into a 90 degree angle bend, removing that would probably smooth that out.

- Her left hand rotates for no discernible reason after the slash. It seems out of place. You probably need a keyframe there.

I don't see any other things to point

Actually, it's not just the feet, but the legs. Notice how they move closer the moment he raises his arm, and also when he lowers it (more noticeable at the knees). Might want to take a look at the keyframes.

Wait1 is excellent.

[Lillith]

Two things so near eachother, from me?! It's outrageous!


Dodgy dodging!
To do's... Still need fix that spot dodge a bit, make the sword arm of her down air transition more naturally instead of just snapping into place as it does, also make the left hand transition better. And... Fix up one of the victories a little more.

[KingJigglypuff]

You've got the motions right, but the overall execution is rather janky.

[Nao-chan]

Janky this... janky that... You know what else is janky? Your vocabulary. v:

Seriously though... there are other words Mr. King of Meme.
