Nice! There's room for growth but this is a promising reel. Here's a couple of things that i picked up on: The very first thing that you see after the opening titles is an animation that is very unclear to me. Once the guys are shown holding hammers I get it then, it's a weight piece. But before that, I'm not sure what the…

The low poly knights were inspired by the awesome VG Remix contest featured here on Polycount some time ago and I have been looking forward to posting them here! Thanks for checking the stuff out and any feedback appreciated.
Hey there! Thought i'd try and help and throw in my 2 cents :) Stewart hammer thing - really not sure what this situation is, obviously one guy has a hammer, the other a nail but bit confusing why they're so big and walk down tiny planks? But either way. Watch out for the obvious IK sticking on the wall hand. With hammer…
Theres not much I can say that hasn't already been said. I have to stress that the black backgrounds are a huge no-no. It makes it extremely difficult to see any subtleties in your work, and it also gives off an extremely student vibe, regardless of how great the animation is. Keep up the good work man!
To defend the hammers, and use of them pretty certain they are just being used as it's an exercise in weighting and they are just arbitrary heavy objects that showcase Andrew's skill in hand keying animation with accurate weight and balance.
Hey, that was some damn fine feedback, I heeded almost all of it. The updated video is reached via the old link! Felt good getting rid of those black backgrounds, improved a lot I think. As did zooming in on the knights, I got so used watching it all in fullscreen on a large monitor. Makes a whole lot of sense to keep it…
Yo! It felt a lot more professional now:) I'm afraid that you might have gone overboard with the T-rex tail though - it feels like a balloon or jelly-tail now... Just noticed the Bob Hund icon in the background, nice:)
Hi! Nice reel! I'll try to give you some feedback - but feel free to disregard it:) Your name in the beginning disappears really quick, would recommend you to either have a black screen with your name in the beginning or add your name somewhere always visible during the reel. The sound level is kinda off, either the music…
AGreed with everything connecta said. I`d also add in that it would be nice to have better rendering. The black background is kind of dull and, well, sad. haha. Plus it hides some things. Brighten up your render. Go for a mid-toned grey or something. Also, the sword fight, zoom in... It's one of your better pieces and you…
