Self Initiated Study 2 - Anticipation

For the second self initiated study we focused on the second principle of animation - Anticipation. After going through the animation book, and seeing some examples online, studying the timing and duration of the keyframes, we went about creating it at home. I decided to make a character punching, and would use the character design I used for the storyboard in the drawing sessions. I believe it came out well. I had to switch the robot arm to the left side to make the punch facing the screen, but dont think that takes anything away from the animation. I feel the timing of the frames is well done, and looks realistic. It slows into the anticipation and preparation of throwing a punch, and then speed up to after the punch has landed.
