BlakTornado's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[ultimate clay tutorial]

Good job!

Smashing job with this one! Good tutorial and I hope this makes it through the portal (although most NGers are grumpy and blam anything clay related... 2 years and you get used it, though. lol.)

A few pointers:
1. Knox uses claytoon but the best UK equivalent IS Newplast :) I use it and it's good stuff, even though it's a bit messy! Not as good as claytoon, though... I don't think.
2. When you make the claymen, rather than pushing your fingers down into the clay (It works ok, but makes them kinda blobby), use a knife instead :) Any old butter knife will do. I have a butter knife and it works fine :)
3. When animating steps, don't spread the legs too far apart because it will look unnatural, haha. About 3 frames per step at 15FPS should be fine (1st frame is getting the legs in line, second is moving the leg forward so it's kinda hovering in the air. Third is to put the foot down and get the back leg off the ground a bit, if you get what I mean, haha.)

Hope those helped you and other readers of this review! :D

Best of luck with getting through the portal and I hope my vote helped protect this flash! Good luck with everything! You have potential to be a great claymator!

Being a fellow stopmotion artist, I know what it's like to do something like this and it takes a long time! Good job :D Keep it up! You have a lot of potential!

[Magic claymation]

Sweet little claymation you've got there :D

Nice little story and some claymation techniques :) It's a shame about the pixelatted-ness but it was good apart from that :)

Well done :)

ATOMICCLOUD responds:

[Life Lessons with Billy!]

For a first flash...

Well done! Seriously! That was great! Very funny and you did a good job with the lip syncing!
Keep up the great work! Seriously!

[S1E11-The Brainy Tadpole]

You have potential

I didn't love it, nor did I hate it.
It was fairly good. You have some good animation techniques and you should definitely NOT give up, but try and work on the story line as it didn't make much sense.
But overall, it was a pretty good claymation :) Keep it up!

[Empty Remorse]

Ignore hardyboyz1

This was great! What the hell was that guy on about? Hmm... he probably just didn't understand the humor xD Probably too intellegent for his 10 year old mind to capacitate. (wow, turns out that that IS a real word according to my dictionary plug-in! haha)
So yes, great job! A good plot and very original! I'm impressed, although not to imply that I ever doubted your talent!

[Clayland - Stranded]

Woo!

That camera is great! :D

Good work, buddy :)

and thanks for the mention in the description :) It will be returned :D

TechFlash responds:

No problem, Blak! And thanks for the 10 and the return :)!
