It points every which way is Jesus was running through it randomly in celebration of his 2006th birthday!
My first-ish attempt at animating a run with my tablet.
I think what i'll do here is animate it at the speed it is (although double it up(it's currently on two's)) then double it up again. The character will be stretchy which will (Hypothetically :) ) be the hook of the game.
I've noticed I only draw side-scrollers. Which is weird, since I never played mario and all that when I was little, only really got a PS2, and have never been a 'gamer'.

Hmm, well it's good, but I think he leans back just a weebit too much for how much he ends up leaning forward. It looks to me like he's got a load of momentum then just stops dead, which would realy sorta throw you off balance, and you dont really show that. I'll wait until I see more progress until i say anything definate though.
Side not, I LOVE that you've got my boy Ed in your sig.

I don't know why Mogly, but I've always had this problem with your running cycles that make him look more like he's walking strong. I think it's just me or that his other foot should be higher in the air when the other foot hits the ground... However, I'm not saying this as a bad thing, he looks more like he's an arrogant strong person :D besides, probably better than anything I can do. -.-

I'm really glad you said that. Because ~
My idea for the game is you play a guy who can stretch himself, meaning when he is unstretched, his body shakes about like a floppy.. dildo or something to that effect.. :)
I wanted to do this, because 1. Whenever I do a run cycle I put the arms and legs going in unison rather than opposite, which is wrong and 2. because I wanted to try something that could have alot of chracter in it, and sort of flow about.
Cheers for the comments. Also Mr.Dog, I see what you mean, i'll keep that in mind.

Looks like an animated Tooth adventure for all the ages. But please don't do that. :)
For the ball going around the character, what you should do is have a symbol, and within that tween it getting bigger and smaller, with a slight ease on the height of the tween.
Then, tween it from left to right (and back again), again with an ease. Duplicate the layer, and blank out frames where appropriate.

Here's an update on what I showed before. The tablet does really make shit so much faster.

Run that doesn't look like run Cycle
That cycle is fantastic. Now if you can just inbetween that bitch, you'll be raring to fuckin' go.... You are going to inbetween right? Just that his head is a wee-bit jerky... Oh YEAH, I forgot, the dildo floppyness thing.
Oh and all of you should see PERFUME.. I repeat... PERFUME! It's just beautiful. And for those of you around my age, Rachel Hurd-Wood isn't too shabby lookin' either ;)

That's alright. I think there needs to be something more to it, that adds a bit of character.. or some sort of expression (for lack of better word).
For example, after the last current frame have a sort of ripple effect where you could simply tween the last frame growing/shrinking. Or maybe a sort of wobble right.
It's good though, grounds for building on. I'd redo the same thing if it's nothing specific(just a parcitce) but with the aim of giving it some sort of character/expression.

Character om above running
I thought about what you said Mr.Dog, and I agree he is basically walking hard. If you cover up the bottom half of him on this This he looks like he's running, but if you cover the top it looks like a hard mans walk.
I got a book from Luis this morning and was looking at this guys posters. I had a litttle attempt at thickening the lines of an older picture I did, and here is a little WIP. Here is the old version.
I'm new to PS and the lines came out a little to wavy. Is there any filters or anything where I could sort this out, like I was looking at brush strokes which makes it seem possible. I was also using my tablet too which I got a few days ago, so it would be a little shaky :)
Picture of cool stuff I haven't made anything in the longest time. I've been practicing and trying to become better though. So tell me what you think.
Haha, Mogly, man that really does just look like a dildo. His head is all over the place, it's sorta scary really.
As for your drawing, well it seems to me that there is something, I dunno, impossible to fix about it. I just kept looking at it and just thinking, I hope he doesn't change anything. It felt to me that by trying to fix it, it can only be broken. Hmm.

Your stuff is always impressive! You should start your own thread in the Art Forum and post more often!!! :P
KorteX, it turned out great!
Umm...yeah, this is a weird animation test I did. I don´t know if I like it or not, really.
What do you folks think about it?

Here's an attempt at what I last posted here about or somin or over or sommint.
I'm looking for technical tips to do with PS, one thing that's irritating me a little is the slightly pixelated edges in some areas, anyway to sort them?
I wish her face wasn't so weird looking, will have to cut it up.

Super weird pose. lol. But i like the style. :D
Looks good mogly. I call this one "Waking up at night and you can't really tell whether the number after the 0 is a 5 or an 9 and you have to look it at for a little bit".
always behind schedule.

Hah I know the feeling. I love that, despite whether it's a 5 or a 9, does it even matter?
If you've seen Peter Kay's stand up routine he says something like 'Why is it that we always wait for the clock to roll over to the next 5 or 10? "Ooh 3:17 i'll get up at 3:20" What is it about the 5 and 10's.'

I like your style, I really do, but the faces do get repetetive. Try branching out and taking in different styles to make a style that is both versatile yet still unique.
heres a picture of Redcherrylock
yay not mario related!
