Yeah, of course!  Just send me the atlas and I'll get started.

kk, here's the zip!

MarkManiac.zip

 

I need the following in just front view:

transforming from normal mark to the maniac (make it cartoonish and bouncy and stretchy and what not)

hurt

death pre (where he falls down)

death loop (where he just lays there dead)

shocked (like when hit by lightning and the skeleton shows)

falling down to sleep

funny idle (where he laughs evily)

eating (picking something on the ground up and shoving it in his face and chews on it with his big puffy cheeks)

 

I need the following in front, side, and back views:

idle

walk pre

walk loop

walk pst

action (I want him to punch things with his right arm make it look like it'll hurt)

 

pretty sure that's everything I need, if you have any questions let me know, and if you need anymore art the artist was vivilavie

 

thankyou so much for helping out! I would do it myself but I am no animator at all.... I can animate easy things like tiny box tim...

 

also, could you give me an ETA?

Ooookkayy, so, I have, um, some bad news.  I can't animate this.

 

Not that it's beyond my skill level, or it's too much stress - it's just that the atlas seems like it was made purely for that position in the photograph.  I can hardly move/rotate any of the limbs outside that pose, without the lines getting disconnected or the limbs coming off altogether.  There's enough space that I could do a little something with it, but it would just end up looking stiff as a board.

 

So, um, yeah.  There's that.

 

Anyways, what's an ETA?

ETA = Estimated Time Arrival, meaning how long will it take...

also if I can get viv to redraw some of the pieces would you be able to do it? if so which pieces need to be redrawn?

The arms and legs are the main issues.  If you could get those fixed up, I could definitely do it.

I'll get on that as soon as possible! :-)

as long as I can find an artist or somehow magically get vivilavie to start working on it again....

know any other artists that aren't vivilavie?

I tried to get emiel regis to fix it up, so he popped the art into spriter and said it doesnt need to be fixed... I guess he is either a spriter god  or just doesnt understand what I am talking about... sadly he can't animate anything for me right now XD (too busy with his own things)

Ofcourse that first pff.... :livid:

Yeah, you are fully capable of moving them - but it just ends up looking bad and disconnected.

 

What I was trying to explain Fidoop is that you can make animations even if there are gaps in  parts and THEN just add "filler" parts to patch existing animations. This  is way more efficent.

the animator will make the pics move in spriter (I am not the best so I wanted someone with experience to do it!) you were offline so I didn't think to ask you...

and I have all the images I need but if lord battal is going to animate it at all the limbs need to be very slightly redone so that they don't only look good in one position, but in many positions! right @Lord_Battal?

Yes.

 

Or you could draw them in a bunch of different positions, like the pig atlas, but that would take far longer and not really worth it.

sorry about dissapearing for a week but I will be trying to fix up the art soon...

I'm figuring it out, somewhat, I'm just having some personal issues so I haven't been able to work on it much.

does that mean you have animated some on it? if you've finished any I'd like to see how it looks c:

well... I've managed to release a horrible version of the mark maniac... I'm in the current state of hunting down the best artist(s) I can possibly get to draw as many little tiny pieces of an actual DS style maniac that can easily be animated for you! I really want this to like it was klei made! and also be easily controlled without pausing like a freakizoid... (I am so ashamed in my own animations D:)
