Topic: Lightsaber Test

I tried a (very) short test with a light-saber. It took forever to draw all the blades frame by frame. Feedback is welcome.

You may want to post a link to the video so we can see. mini/smile

EDIT: Ah nevermind, you added one. It looks pretty good. The blade was tracked on quite well and it looks fairly realistic. Good job!

Re: Lightsaber Test

Yeah, I realized that right after I posted the initial post mini/lol Thanks so much for responding! Your animations are some of the best around!

Re: Lightsaber Test

Pretty good man! The only thing, if I were to get picky, would be that when the blade moves fast, lightsabers tend to blur and widen, you know what I mean?

Otherwise, it looks great!

Re: Lightsaber Test

Thanks. Yeah, I noticed that myself, and I did widen them slightly, but I guess it needs to be wider and more noticeable.
Gosh, all of my heroes are replying mini/smile

Re: Lightsaber Test

Very nicely done, other then the already suggested blur and widen effect it looked great!
