Ponygoons Writing Contest II"I don't think I can wait much longer, you guys! I'm so excited! I just know this is gonna be the best competition ever! I can feel it! Are you guys as psyched up as I am? Oh, who am I kidding, I know you are! I mean, how can you not be? It's the Best Young Flier's Competition! It's always fantastic!"

Pumpkin Tart grew more irritated as her friend Gumdrop chattered on about the competition, with no end in sight. She scowled at her loquacious new friend, who hardly took notice of her companions. Her focus was on the currently empty stage, a smile stretching from ear to ear, eyes as wide as dinner plates. Pumpkin snuck over to Rainbow Day, mak
Ponygoons Writing Contest IThe summer season was always the busiest time of year at Sugarcube Corner. Not that Pinkie Pie minded, of course. She was perfectly content to work harder than usual for a few months purely for the chance to see the young ponies' faces as they enjoyed the exquisite taste of Pinkie's ever-popular chocolate chip cookies. Pinkie knew she would be hard-pressed to find a career more satisfying than the simple act of bringing happiness to others.

Still, she couldn't help but pause at the kitchen sink on occasion. She would peer through the small window above, watching the young fillies enjoying their freedom from school. Some happily playing by th

This is a short preview of something I've been working on. Basically I'm uploading it just to prove that I am in fact working on things.

Tumblr version for easier sharing maybe?

The following book is where I learned how to build character puppets without using bones: [link] It was written for Flash 8, but it's still useful for newer versions. Also, Fun Fact™: My Little Pony is animated with Flash 8, too.

I will probably release the FLA for the entire project once it's done. But I hope to have something even more useful ready by then.

The movements needs more flow to them. It's just too stiff. :C It's good though, but work on adding in-betweens.

I see what you mean. I think the problem is that I restricted myself to animating on two's when I didn't have to, and probably shouldn't have. Adding more in-betweens wouldn't be a problem necessarily, though I think any jerkiness or stiffness is a lot harder to see when this is part of a larger scene like it's meant to be.

...however, the swollen cheeks (or whatever you call it) when her mouth is widely open don't do it on her face. it's just... weird. if not, the whole animation is perfect.

By "don't do it", do you mean that they shouldn't be there? Because I could swear I used a screenshot from the show as reference for that, but now I can't find where it's from, so maybe those cheek bulges shouldn't be there after all.
