Diving Raptor

I've decided that for my first post I would show a short, rough animation I made a couple of months ago. Video, frame by frame, and explanation after the jump!








I started with my character on the board



The anticipation

Starting the jump, a small stretch on the legs

Jump in the air

Landing, small stretch

Second anticipation for the jump

Jumping off the board, large stretch

The jump

A nice pose with some more anticipation

Drop the gut a little to show gravity taking its course

A nice stretch and smear

Final smear off screen

Let the board finish its wobbling

And done
A very simple fourteen frames and a little bit of timing later and you've got a nice diving animation.

    Ok the youtube vid at the top didn't load until I posted the previous comment, XD. But it's throwing an error.
