Ah. Don't rush it. I know you're really busy with all the TWFF stuff.
Also, while you're at it, will you consider making the Raider a little bigger? Currently the Radier looks like the Torcher with some armor on. And again, no need to rush it. :)

I need to know if this lead animation is good enough to go

It has only 2 frames, and I think I did too much on it... what do you think?

I think it would look cooler if he lifted his spear in the air rather than his empty hand. It seems like leaders usually lift their weapons in the air to inspire troops.
Otherwise, I think it looks great.

I added those little arrows without a head just to know if they could shoot them on the attack animation, and they would be rougher-ly-done than the normal ones

But it's just a suggestion, and I don't know if it would work either :?
Sorry to bother you, but do you think I could get the pngs of the arrows you posted a lot above?

As for the leading, it looks good. Though maybe he should move the spear more? I dunno, but it looks really good already.

Here I am again, making excuses. Due to severe Internet problems, I won't have Internet access for a week or more to come. I apologize for the delay, but I'm unable to do anything about it, unfortunately. :(

Ok, here goes, I hope it works

I'm currently working on the Goblin Slayer... but... there is already the Orcish Slayer, so could the Goblin be the Ambusher?

Oh, right, regarding the lead animation, I'll make him lift his weapon, but only in the 3rd level

On lv 2 his hands are in a way that lifting a spear in 2 frames would look awkward, so... what I got in mind was to make the lv 2 give a shout (with his hand next to his mouth) and the lv 3 lifts his spear

Oh cool. Again, the names are mostly placeholder for now. But Ambusher doesn't quite fit the role IMO.
New arrows! Cool.
And do what you need to do for Prinak's animations, you probably have a better sense of that than me.

I'll call this one my first attempt at it, because I don't think he looks too much like a rough goblin stalker that shoots darts with those stick things... he just looks more like a "hollywood medieval assassin"

I'll try again later, but what do you think of the pose?

And I'm having problems with the Great Ogre's belly, any tips?

Oh, and regarding the slayer, that's exactly what I had in mind, making him weaker and rougher, I'll try some ripped clothing

He looks good. Though, if you are planning to make him more badass, remember goblins are a very weak and cowardly race. Anyhow, keep up the good work!

I recently got a digital table so I gave the shooter a shot

It doesn't look good and I'd like some advice on how to make it more mainline-styled

I also "upgraded" the slayer, I'll put the dart throwing thing soon, unless you want to switch for a shortbow, E_S :)

Cool. Yeah, I think darts will do. :)
I can't quite give advice, since I'm not an artist, but what I can say is that you're doing great and keep up the good work!

Did some revisions to these (comparatively old) baseframes, also made the Raider a bit brawnier. Third one under construction.

Looking great, but still that one thing: the raider needs to be bigger. Right now he still looks like the torcher with some armor on. :hmm:

Caercyn's head was pretty poorly shaded, and it was bothering me more and more. Here's a new version, which is hopefully a significant improvement--it looks that way to me, at least.
