Malus's attack animation. It's not perfect (the sprites in the middle are placed a little lower than those at the start), and the distance between the start and the end is probably too far, but it's good practice for me.
This is an entirely new animation that I created from various bits of others [mainly Lloyd's].
Made with Jasc Animation Shop.
Credit to Bonzai and Grim [link] for the sheets used to make Malus's sprites.
It looks okay, I would personally work on the lining between the first and last. It's okay and the distance is fine, but the coloring could be a bit more lively. If you want dark coloring, use the color scheme from Joshua in FE8.
