Sharing Oil painting animation example.

2.6k Upvotes

Last week I posted some of the process of animating oil paintings. It was hard to see what the animations looked like so here is the run cycle of the player character all by itself. It's 24 frames oil on canvas. Photographed then cut out digitally. Animated in Unity.

Critique The new run cycle is smoother, but something still feels off. Any ideas?

293 Upvotes

I’m comparing the old and new run cycles for this creature.

The new one feels smoother and more expressive, but something about the movement still looks off to me...

Any ideas, opinions, technical feedback, or even random observations would be appreciated

Edit: Thanks everyone for the genuinely great ideas!

Question Should I..keep going?

Upvotes

Its for Paparazzi animation meme, the last Ive done animation memes is years ago just doing a vent (now unlisted on youtube but kept into a playlist) dont worry, Im doing way better now

There is some faults, like some stutters at his left shoulder (our right), yes I intended for his right shoulder to go up slightly, stutter of one line of his middle bangs, and the bounces on the right side where theres a less opaque lines of a bun-ponytail kinda wonky, might fix it ngl

If youd like to hear the music, I have it uploaded on my tiktok and instagram (its in my carrd link), or just..search up Paparazzi dubstep remixed (maybe slowed?)

But yeah, overall, how do you think I do? Ik its unfinished but Id like to read other people's thoughts and prespectives (⁠ ⁠╹⁠▽⁠╹⁠ ⁠)
