  • ttobioreo hi tobioreo, good start! Here's some feedback for you:

    your arcs are a bit flat at the top, gives it a floaty feeling. A tip I got from Wayne when I struggled with this one myself: mute the horizontal movement. Then focus on the bounces alone first. They should be just like the vanilla bounces, only less high each time. Also the first bounce is a half bounce, so it should have the same timing to it. If can help to add a key frame in the negative so you can actually see the full arc. Remember, they should be nice parabolas.

    After that turn on the horizontal movement again and start tweaking. In your case it's traveling to far, you can't see the end. Try reducing the distance it travels. Also don't forget about the ending wobble.

    This one is pretty difficult and you're doing great so far, it's awesome that you're seeking feedback and are applying it, that's the best way to learn. Good luck :)

  • dont worry . well it all are small mistakes but it will affect a lot . (also in
    image 3 you will see i moved there the blue curve the way it should be more . (of course only moving that wont make a good arc thats why the red line also needs to be fixed)
    animation sure aint easy but its fun and i am sure in time you will be really great . and if you need more help or have questions feel free to ask me .
    i am glad its helpfull :)

    ok so here i took notes of the things i still see that could use improvement .
    do note i still am learning so there might be some more spots but these are the ones i see .
    some extra info i put in here
    in the first picture everyting is explained .
    second picture
    so i said to more it to the right but also move it a bit more up. what i do is using the grid to compare if they are somehow on the same spot.
    image 3 no more info needed here
    image 4. i might drawed the problems area more then they are but its to make clear what the problem is . like at 1 its too pointy while it should be a nice curve. and the second one is having a mirrored S shape . try to make it a nice bow too.

    i hope this info helps if you still have questions feel free to ask me .
    ill leave the editing over to you now to see if you understand what i mean :)

    yyukinoh1989 h'm damn miss the red line mistake.
    also how do I share the file with you, so you can paint it over? It will be a big help to see it visual and reading what you said ^^"

    Either way thanks very much for the tips!!!
