not quite sure how I'm gonna do this explosiony thing wit da bomb

[Previous]

I don't really like the shading on that bomb. It might look better if you made it look 'shiny'.

I don't like the explosion effect much. Though I do like the bomb! The effects however, seem unnatural.

[Gors]

yeah, explosions aren't spiked rings that flash and grow. try looking for references.

[Rosencrantz]

Well

spiked rings might be a cool stylistic way for making an explosion, but the main problem is the speed of the explosion.

When things blow up, it's spontaneous. The ring should be at its maximum size - or at the very least close to its maximum size - in one frame. The next frames should then be fallout.

Remember: explosions are forceful. When you make something become huge in a small range of time, it conveys a feel of force in the piece. Try to emulate this as best as you can :>



But yeah, look into other conventions besides the rings. A better flame cloud will make a better feel for the explosion~

[Phantom Killah]

The spiked rings thing was actually inspired by the explosions in a Link to the Past, but I don't like the way it looks and I'll definitely redo it. Thanks for the criticisms

[Garamonde]

Actually, those spike ring explosions honestly remind me of Super Mario Advance. Anyone else agree?

EDIT: Actually, I know they remind me of something but I don't know what. Might have been LttP, but I'm not sure. Might not have been SMA...

EDIT 2: Nevermind, it probably wasn't SMA, thought it was. But I think I agree about the explosion looking slightly strange.

For reference, I look like this:

Looking good! I like the face you're making in that picture.

Head is too long, his right arm is noodly-looking, and overall his arms look too short.
