Animation warm-up that was Zelda related, so I figured I'd post it to good old ZFGC :) 100% custom, but heavily inspired from Zelda 3 (duh!)

The animation is smooth, but something's not quite right with his arms there. Also, his hair color is leaning too much toward purple, rather than the pinkish shade it was on the original LTTP color scheme. Try pinking it up abit by adding red and decreasing blue. Otherwise, I think it's coming along smoothly, though I question why you gave him his Ocarina of Time hairstyle (perfectly even on both sides, easy for fipping sides of sprites) instead of his hairstyle based on the LTTP artwork.

Post by: DJvenom on April 30, 2013, 12:13:59 am: Thanks for all the C+C dudes :D! It was kind of just a warm-up piece, so a few of the crits I'm not too worried about remedying (hair color etc) since I don't intend to do much with it :P I do agree the arms looked kinda jiggly, so I modified them a bit to make it look like his upper body is rotating, which also compensates for the bouncy belt. As for it moving so much, I was shooting for a more exaggerated cartoony look :)

Here's the modified version :D
