Hey Zey, glad to see you're still sticking with this project. What I really suggest that you increase the frame rate. Right now its just too slow, speed up the frame rate, add some more frames and it will look much better.

I like your characters and sets but with the frame rate so low its hard to follow and can be unappealing

Just my personal opinion, good luck

Hi, Thanks!!, i'm practicing more now than what i was at the begining! ive also been looking at the speed!!

I am determined to keep going and try as much as i can!

When I first looked at the video I thought is was a costumed actor riding the bike. I realized that's not the case as it played on. Nice sequence. I'm sure it's a challenge to stop motion animate a character riding a bike. My suggestion would be to show Zey peddling as opposed to gliding along. It would be more work but interesting to see this effect. The payoff would be a more authentic replication of an action one would normally associate with riding a bike. Good luck and thanks for posting the animation.

Hi, Charles, Thank you for your comments appreciated! Wow that was cool, you thought Zey was someone in costume!!

With the bicycle i made Zey look like he was pedalling by making his feet go forward and backwards because i can't change the pedals so they actually rotate round!! but i thought i'd make his feet move in some way!!.

As usual i am experimenting and trying thing's out!!
