[TBA -Heroes vs Villains]

Brilliant...

You've always been one of my favorite drawn animators, and this was excellent as usual. Didn't have as much humor as I've normally expected from you, but I enjoyed this better with less comedy. The artwork is a unique style and the coloring and effects rocked. Also, the music had a very metallic feel to it, and Three Days Grace to boot, nice touch. The story was amazing, which is something that's very hard to come by today. Also, I hope you deicde to make something of this one day, whether you further it into a series with voice actors or simply as a novel. Either way, you really should progress it.

God Bless

Comick responds:

Hey thanks man! I'm glad you liked it and that actually watch my other stuff too :) haha I tried to make the cat getting killed humorous but maybe it didn't come out like that XD The last song was actually Apocalyptica (who hardly do any vocal work). But yeah thanks for the nice review I'll probably do something to continue it for sure!

[Rise of the Brotherhood 3]

Once again...

Another sonic series with intelligence and a good plotline goes ignored, un- rewarded, and has never recieved the front page. I know that feeling. Great work by the way, loved it.

Milanous responds:

Wow coming from you that means alot to me. Thank you.

[Sonic and Mario ep: 1]

Very good...

Animation was excellent and so were the sprites, I detected some DoD style in this. Great work, hope to see the next one soon. I just suggest adding a replay button, scene selection menus, and credits as well. ESPECIALLY credits.

God Bless

sonicmcbob responds:

thx, cant wait for the next episode of DoD. were also both in the sonic battle collab

[Tails: UCW Intro]

Looks promising...

Excellent Blaze edits, (Provided you made them, please add a credits section from now on, even if it's an intro like this.) animation was pretty good, could be a lil smoother, perhaps a faster frame rate because the motion eases seemed alright. The story intrigues me so I'll be checking in on this from time to time, and if you're having a hard time with Blaze sprites, it's always easy enough to make the poses yourself with MS Paint. Keep at it.

God Bless

Blank-Mage responds:

As a matter of fact, I did edit those. That and all the sad/angry Tails sprites. (Did you know that Tails is happy and cheerful in practically ALL of his frames? It's ridiculous! He's like Cream or something!) As for the frame rate, funny story. I hadn't figured out how to stream audio without reducing quality until about halfway through this little project. At that point, I found that post-streaming I was about 4 fps faster than I had been up till then. So I decided that rather than add 4 frames for every 20, I would decrease the framerate to compensate. Still, no harm done, and now that I know how to control export quality, it won't come up again. Oh, and making poses myself is NOT easy. Why would you lie?!

(Sorry about the credits. Pretty much, just Dan Sidney and BGHQ.com.)

[TAOA Intro]

Well...

It needs more work. It starts our promising and then it gets kind of draggy. The music is a good choice, the animation was pretty decent, but, you made some things last to long, like Amy's running. It went nowhere fast and the fight with the four goons was too short as well as not much of a confrontation with Mephiles and the mario background was squished in way to much. So my suggestion is, add a bit more action, some flashy lights so to speak not literally, and explain more of the story in it by adding some headlines through out it or portray it with the movements of your characters. Also, increase the FPS to at least 20 to start with and work your way up to at least 24, that's what I use. Keep at it bro and I'm here should you need further assistance.

thanks

[Wrath of Shadow ep. 8]

Riveting...

Absolutly awesome, a true tribute to Shadow, excellent work. Plus great song choice.

Shi-Gu responds:

Thanks so much dude, it means a lot for me, specially coming from you :D

[Sonic Vs. Shadow The Race]

Looks good bro...

Though just a lil slow in some areas such as when shadow stayed in the air kick pose while the background was moving until they stopped and landed. Next time, just have him slowly descending to the ground. Also, next time have multiple choice endings, unless it's for a Collab, then you can't always do that. Looks pretty good bro, keep it up.

God Bless

MikeyTheYoshi responds:

Thanks a lot man, means a lot!

[Sonic: TAO Part 1]

Excellent

The animation was perfect and very smooth, no mistakes there. The storyline is very interesting and I'm looking forward to the rest. Nice style of ending, reminded me kind of, of my style. Musical scores were chosen well for the different moods of each scene. The only thing that you should REALLY do is edit some more sprites. I suggest making editing the Dark Sonic sprites so Abbadon looks more original and the same goes for the two megaman sprites, as well as the mystery madman, behind it all. Using characters from games and JUST renaming name isn't as original, and you certainly have PLENTY of originality to do so. That is my ONLY suggestion and I hope you take it. It will make your movies absolutly perfect, becuase other than that you need no other improvement. Use MS Paint to edit sprites. Keep up the good work bro.

God Bless

Akradon responds:

Thanks for the great review! woot! I wana start editing sprites, but im not the best at it at the moment. So hopefully during the course of flash, i will get better at editing :)

[Sonic:The Dark Side Prt 5]

Quite a good series...

I did enjoy it quite a bit. Just thought the fight at the end was a bit short lived for such a powerful foe. Nevertheless, a very gripping storyline. You don't see that very often anymore. I'm also flattered that you used many of the effects as seen in my DoD series. I look forward to seeing your next installment/series. I especially enjoyed that at the end, you can see a noticeable difference in Abbadon's spines. Much more original than just using a DS sprite. I look forward to seeing your new design for him. Keep up the good work, and if you should need some extra resources/help, give me a buzz.

God Bless

Akradon responds:

Hey, thanks mate =) ur in all my credits cuz i use loads of sfx from ppl so i always credit them. woot!

[MetalSonic's Wrath Teaser]

Nice job dude...

It looks pretty good dude. Only advice I offer is the same advice I gave on SA. Keep at it.
