I started a game a long time ago called froggy shoot out. I was feeling nostalgic today and opened it up and the game was very fast fast on my new pc and it got me thinking maybe i like to work on it a little more. I made a new frog for it today. He's not painted yet. And I am showing the old one here too for contrast. The new one is the blue background. Which do you like better? |

Actually Frog, I like the old one (with the grey background) better.
Let me guess.... Animation Master? :p |

I like the grey background one too! Great job on both frogs. I think I like that one with the grey background because it has more textures, and looks more detailed.
Speaking of Animation Master, 3dFrog, you should be called "Animation Master" in my oppinion. |

try applying the same textures to your new one as you did on your old one and see what happens. |

I like the hat, hands, and feet on the new one, but the body and head need some character to be better than the old one. |

I would continue work on the new one. Web feet are missing, tummy texture, straighten out his vest, get some floppiness into the hat showing gravity exist, and some variations in his structure would get rid of that mirrored look. I also would make his eyes bigger. |

I'm with Stienie - the old one has those big googly eyes which gives him a more exaggerated character. |

Thanks for the suggestions. I made some changes and painted him. Yeah making those eyes bigger made him look tons better. |

Looks a lot better. You should bring the skull up behind the eyes, that gap between the eyes looks odd.... |

He's about to die with his boots off.
Cowfrogs need boots ...and a holster/ belt.
Even in Brokeback Mountain I don't think they took their boots off. |

Frog !
I like your horse ..... !!
Theres something wrong withe the walk cycle though !
While you have gallopp on the front you sort of have a human walk on
the back !
Heres the way the horse normaly runs !

Maybe that will help you ...

Then again.. you may not want him to gallop like a live horse - gives him cartoon personality! |

Do you have a demo close to being ready yet, Dennis? I'm on the lookout for demos for the BOTB Award (Best of the Best for those who don't know) for September's Newsletter at TGC. It definately has a different look than the usual run and gun games most people put out.
Here's a list of current Award holders:
