get on with my life and not let it hold me back

Sort of like a rts where you gather resources and then build a village. I would prefer C++.

The sidewalk should be a right angle from the street.

Nice, looks a little out of order tho since he does his victory (something) and then does more but i know how much work that would be to redo it. How does the G.A.P. work when making animations?

WOW thats going to be a lot of work but looks really cool so far. Anyway i think that the side walk comes out from the street crooked. You need add lines to the houses and chimney to make them more 3d. The main prolblem with your work is that you need to shade the edges to make the stuff look more 3d, right now it looks flat.

hmm... interesting hmm... more interesting EDIT: here is the thread that he sold it in

I will enter, sounds fun.

The credit says that they think that person did it so maybe it was just VanmiR that messed up by forgeting to include his name.

how are you doing it? frame by frame, picture by picture? each frame drawn? just make more frames where the sun is and make it move less I just make 3 basic pictures, one with the house light and the grass light then i changed them around to make a few more then copyied those a few times in other places to make it look like the stuff it getting lighter and darker with the day progressing. Then to the side i make a sun and a star and pasted those in the spaces, then filled in the sky on them. misterxman: I didn't learn too much just to take time on my grass and that stars are easyer to make then they look.

here is a animation, it goes through night and day then repeats the stuff is kind of jumpy, especially the sun but i dont really know how to make it smooth. here is the frames that i used for it:

Your shading needs to be a lot darker at the edges, it made a huge diffrence when i did it just to see if it would look good. The same thing will work good on the bags too(i think). Your left side of the sled seems like it could use some aa. Edit: right i mean

You could add: -air born snow -candy canes -wolfs -sleds / sled tracks -pine trees -fallen limbs -snow men/snow angel -orange light/glow -penguin -chrismis themed stuff -icicles from tree What i think that needs to be improved is the tree roots, the texture and banks of the iced pond. Also the snow shouldnt be on the tree so neat. the bunny tracks are too big. Overall it needs more shading but i assume you havent goten that far yet.

i think this is the basics of wrinkles, here is an example i got from some random website.

Did you mean something along the line of this?

could someone help me with the mantle though dont you guys think the mantle sucks?

I gave up on the sig that i was working on a while mostly because i couldnt draw a fireplace mantle. Turned out bad because just couldnt draw bricks that where only 3 px tall. I did not want to finish a drawling just for everyone to flame me on how my mantle sucks. does anyone have any ideas of a simple sig that would be fun to work on because im quite board right now? Made this grid with 80x80 boxes, feel free to use i if anyone wants to

I love the graffiti, its really colorful.

I like it but the person looks a little square and the cape looks like it starts at the person's mid back.

oh my bad, never bothered to take a closer look, but it looks simular. didnt notice the dithering untill i zoomed in

i have issues with: 2-how is a snowman suppsoe to be made then? 1-maybe they don't walk, maybe the camera view gets changed?or point of view moves, but not the characters? other then those, its a pretty good animation for quick-timing it, lol i find it the grinch part of christmas lol...colour the stick man green. 2- sry i didnt really say what i meant, ment it your lines are not consistent. here is what i think it should look like: 1- if you want the appearence to be that the camera is moving then you should love the snowman with the stickfigure, you had the snowman standing at the same spot on the screen while the stick figure was moving to the left. btw sry for the crappy fix, i dont have any grafic editing programs except ms paint(i got rid of psp). Im looking forward to getting ps soon though.

most tip.it members don't like people posting things that they did not make. I imagine what you did was just get them from runescape or google images then cut them out and paste them.

pillow shading is when you shade from the outside in. this tutorial brings up pillow shading because it is quite hard to explain in words. http://www.natomic.com/hosted/marks/mpat/shading.html too lazy to click the link? here are the 2 examples the link uses: Pillow shading: Good shading:

I like it, i have only one one animation so far so im not super good at them either. I think you could just make the movements better. I think it would turn out better if you used a program that uses layers, and when you want to change something you can draw the new thing over it, then deleate the old layer. A list of them things wrong: 1. people just slide when they should show walking motions. 2. layers of snowballs are done wrong 3. maybe a better gun... 4. right arm is higher then the left 5. ball starts out going straight down but then curves 6. arms only move when the ball is in the snow man's arms 7. when snowman gets shot he respawns like he is made of rubber 8. maybe a background

I like it but the cape need folds in it to look more like a runescape cape, fish on back of cape looks kind of weriod outlined.
