[Sonic Black VS Sandbag (Scene 3)]

Same rating as last time. You had some basic moves implemented and the animation is fluid enough. But as the previous reviews stated there's nothing really make it stand out.

LucasHORIZ responds:

thx

[Sonic Black VS Sandbag (Scene 2)]

It turned out alright. Sonic is really just beating a bag and that story in of itself works. I wonder why you made his super form pink?

LucasHORIZ responds:

thank you

[Sonic Black VS Sandbag (Preview)]

It does it's job. It's nothing too mind blowing with Sonic beating up the bag with a basic combo. I did like how the bag seemed to change its "face expression" when hit due to the reaction to Sonic Black's punches. This is the fourth animation I have seen of yours so far. Is there anything that you would like to add to them to spice up the repetitive pattern?

Perhaps some music to help with tone? Added audio for voice acting? Or perhaps going for a bit longer storyline? Even if it's just by 10 seconds. Maybe you can change the angle we see the animation (although I imagine that's difficult). You could possibly add audio for Sonic screaming with a kiai as he strikes the bag to make it look more like training. Even just having his mouth open as he strikes would help. Of course I understand that other flash media with Sonic doesn't have that. I'm just throwing out ideas.

Do you have any other story lines planned so your work doesn't get repetitive? Not just for the viewers but for you as well so we don't both get burnt out with the same short animation? I am 100% sure this takes a lot of hard work and dedication just to make a couple of seconds. But striving for some improvement can help. I mean, this is your sixth animation. I am wondering when you will want to change it up a bit.

LucasHORIZ responds:

first i dont add music bc its practise battle
second the voice is nothing here

thanks for understand

[My New Jump Animation (short)]

It's simple and tells the story just fine. Sonic jumping onto where the master emerald is and relaxing. It's nothing mindblowing but you seem to just want to fine tune your animation and test out the best way to make your imagination into reality. And although short, this does work. It's fine.

LucasHORIZ responds:

its okay but thx =)

[Skibidi Toilet VS Michael Jackson]

It works as spam but idk about comedy. I didn't really get the joke but it seems alright. Different strokes for different folks and all that.

[Kori VS Echo (Big Battle)]

It's not bad. The comedy is a bit cliche but it works. I liked how you used Cheese's audio from FHFIF. He's my favorite character in the series!

LucasHORIZ responds:

i know but thx

[Naufal VS Jacob (Complete)]

Awesome. This really reminds me of FF Sonic. It's short, simple, and sweet.

For this type of animation, I think you could've just immediately turned the characters instead of having them fold before facing behind them since they are supposed to be fast. I mean, it's 2D. If you really wanted to make it easier for yourself you also could have added a sound effect for them turning.

I know this is your second animation but I would also add background music to help the tone of the animation. This would especially be helpful for the suspense especially when Naufai is trying to find Jacob.

LucasHORIZ responds:

Thank You So Much!!! =D

[Me Like Cake]

This is some pretty fluid animation. And by fluid I mean it gives me Salad Fingers vibes. The character's visual's, voice acting, and presence really are an attention catcher.

Popchyk responds:

Thanks so much EpikHellSword, that means a great deal :)

[Pico's Unloaded: RELOADED]

Awesome. I loved the references and the creative spin with the black and white animation.

[The Power of Love]

Smooth animation. I like how you added more designs and how much more fluid this is than your other animations. That being said the pacing is rather quick. You may want to take a longer pause before transitioning into the next tone of the scene in order for the audience to fully take in the emotion you are trying to convey.

MudPuddles responds:

Thank you EpikHellSword, I see your point on the pacing. I'll try and work on that.
