Title: How to improve my Talking View?!
Post by: Mosk on Fri 15/09/2006 00:17:48
Okay.. Some guys helped me to make a nice talking animation.. I did some frames, but all of my animations sucked.. so, I was wondering if someone could help me to make a nice talking animation of this guy:

I know it's a bit crappy, and that is a big sprite, but never mind, I just want to get a realistic animation while he talks... so if YOU are an outstanding artist, just help me, 'cause I'm stuck in this..
Thanks in advance! :=

I don't mean to be an ass, but it looks as if you haven't even tried.

Maybe show a rough draft so we can tell you what to improve on?

All you really need is three frames; open mouth, half closed mouth, and a closed mouth. Maybe even just open and closed. The character isn't very detailed, so the animation doesn't need to be either.

There it took me 2 min to make this. I hope you realize you should make your own stuff and not ask people to make it for you. Even if you suck, practice, practice, practice and practice AGAIN!! The only way to learn something...
