BlakTornado's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Vexatia.]

Very good

A quality animation with a good plot.

I liked the mystery involved with it and it was very surreal (well duh - but it was more surreal than some stuff you've made).

Quite thought-provoking, too.

Good job! :D

[Claydays: Christmas]

Excellent!

Great job, man :)

Keep up the good work!

Lino responds:

Thanks Blak :)

[Lethal Lens]

Wow.

Stunning.

[Clayland - Prankster!]

Great, man!

This was really funny and you did a great job! Congrats! :)

I think you're making better shorts now you're not lip syncing, too :) And your claymen look kinda cuter as well xD

Good job, man!

[Claydays: Penguin]

Terrible...

... would be what I would say if I didn't like this movie. And I did like it. It was excellent :D

Very funny, well animated, and much better than Knox! Well done, man!

Lino responds:

Thanks a lot, Blak! :D

[Claydays: Super Clayman]

Wow :D

That was awesome! :D Great job! Seriously! well done! :D

[Clayland - Imaginary]

TENNOUTTATENN

Awesome job :D Keep it up :D

[Mario And Friends Goof Up]

I won't lie.

For a first try, you did ok. Flash is a complex program and it takes a while to get used to it, but you need to work on your voice acting and your animation skills a little. You did ok for a first but I hope you can progress before your next submission :)
I know what it's like to be fed to the wolves, but in the long run it's a benefit.

All the best.

[Clayland - Remote]

Awesome :D

Very funny :D I laughed at moving the police guy :P

Thanks for the mention too, I would do the same but I don't want Tom to think I'm exploiting the situation!

TechFlash responds:

its okay, lol. Thanks for the 10! :D

[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!
