hope this one like you! take all the feedback!!

Feet looks better
A little too much, in my opinion, but this is definitely an improvment from first vid.

A few things I saw :
-Right arm stops a little in the preparation which looks odd. Try to make it look more fluent by erasing the keyframes that stops the arm in the middle of the movement
-Left arm is too late with the stroke movement. You should make it start a little ealier.
-The right arm seems too high after the hit point, try to lower it a little. I looked a the verdasco-murray practice and you can notice that his racquet is rarely above his head.
-Right thigh movement (after hit point) moves too brutally and too far, in my opinion. Maybe if you could rotate it a little less it could be better.

That's all for me ^^
Keep it on thie way, it will be finished soon

The racket face is a tab bit open that what Murray hits like. Close the racket face a bit, please And add some wrist movement at the end of the follow through, I mean, like the players give a little wrist movement for that topspin.
EDIT: For that wrist aspect, the one you posted at the top of the page is perfect, except that Murray does not actually BLOCK ( I hope you know what I mean, the direction of the fingers/palm and the ending of the arm at right angles = block) his right wrist ( the wrist is in line with the racket handle) when his right arm is farthest back during the preparation, and again, the racket face is a little too open than what Murray would like to hit like. And, while preparing for the forehand, he brings his right hand back with a curvy motion and not along a straight line, a little curve is needed for the preparation( see Neeky's delpo forehand preparation for that, a little similar)
And, yeah, Neeky, I think Murray's forheand motion is not smooth, he DOES actually stop the racket for a moment (when he has time to hit, that is).

ok...for the right hand was a mistake that i make...cause i move the racket from the hand.and thats why also look bad the racket hand...palm/fingers...and Neeky said it to me before thats no good... what do you mean about the block?dont understand... not iveen with google translator... the racket face is alot closer...i know...my mistake...bout the stopping in murrays stroke...i know he make a fully stop for a moment.previously he make the movement as in delpo FH as you tell me..but in the anim cant do that...thats why mi anim move slowly in the preparation before hit the ball...i guess the feets looks fine now... i wanna give the full realism to the anim...so i keep workin on it...and i released another vid later
PS:thanks for all the feedbacks and coments...is good to learn that way... everyone has to make opinions and sugestions...simply cause this is for all of us!! thanks!!!

It's much better but for the left hand, it needs to be perpendicular to the ground, should be pointing the sky and be like that




and the preparation of the forehand, his left hand needs to be like that:

In the last pic you can see what I said about the curvy preparation.

ok guys!! i used this pics for improvements!!! and sam...the last pic, i used that position in my vid on the top of the post...watch it and tell me. ...i want to know is the feets looks good for you!! so if dont i try to get better!!
oh..another question...tell me if the speed of the swing is good too. thanks!!!
EDIT: i cant do it make the face as in those pics....jajajajajajaj
