Very good. mini/smile

I liked that pan smack a lot.

Re: THAC Warmup

Yeah I like smacking people with pans too.
Oh the animation.. yeah I enjoyed animating that. Thanks, by the way.

Good job man, looks great! Keep it up, and good luck on THAC.

Re: THAC Warmup

Thanks! I'll need all the luck I can get for THAC, I have no idea how I'm going to survive it.
By the way I have no idea why there's some lady in a bikini in the related videos to this.

Related videos? More like UNrelated videos.
(By the way, seeing that the title of that video is "BEST NEWS BLOOPERS 2012", it's probably one of those misleading thumbnails to get people to watch the video.)
(EDIT: The related videos are actually related now, but I inadvertently found out that lady was Kate Upton.
...
Why did I edit this?)

Anyway, good job.
About the punches/hits: Don't have a contact frame. If you leave it implied, the hit appears to have more force to it. Also, don't ease out (the easing at the start of the movement) on the person being affected. This also helps with adding more force.

Not literally dead, just no longer interested in Lego or animation.

You, I like you.

Anyway, thanks for the advice, though a contact frame may work if it still fits with how the movement eases.

Actually, it'll never fit, because punches and hits need to be fast (if it's done slowly it looks like it doesn't have much force). Fast movements have a "snap" to them, which is acheived by not having a frame in the exact middle of a movement.
