Re: New animations
Looks like an excellent start. Two things strike me though: firstly, the spear needs to move more during the strike - if you look at the way the Clasher's one goes, it keeps moving forward til the last frame of motion blur, during which, instead of stopping, it actually moves back a little. This adds some pop to the strike.
The second thing is that his head should bend forward a little. Not much, just enough to introduce a slight curve in his helmet brow.

Re: New animations
Now bring it backward for a frame as well (slightly further back than the earlier frame), and you're good to shade. This will add snap to the animation, especially once the motion blurs are in place.

Re: New animations
Here is the shaded version. (I procrastinate hugely when it comes to shading)

Re: New animations
Excellent. Just in time for 1.9 =) Are any of the frames the same as the se version?

Re: New animations
OK, no worries. I'll get these in some time today after a bit of testing. EDIT: committed. Thank you. How about trying your hand at making a north-facing base frame and some animations?
If you do feel like attempting that, put it into your separate thread, please. Thank you.
