This is such a great start! I love how accurate your anatomy is, and all the poses are on pointΒ
Dragnohar already mentioned that it could use an extra frame to stop that slight jerk
but over all, as a first walk cycle this is fucking incredible *0*

Animating is hard, there's so much to consider
I would say maybe try making some simple characters to practice with- then you don't have to worry about anatomy so much and can focus on movement. This is an exercise that most animators try at some pointΒ brendanbody.blogspot.com.au/20β¦
It's actually how I ended up designing Myo ahaha

Thank you for the tip!! I will definitely take your advice <3 Movement is definitely the hardest aspect of animation, so exercises are definitely a good idea ;u;
I've been doing some quick exercises for expression, too, here's one I will soon post ->Β
It was only a very quick thing and it's far from perfect but it helped me so much!

It seems like you have a good foundation of knowledge to start animating from 8]
this expression practice looks great! I really like the little pause at the end of the expression, it works well to accentuate the expression

Agree with Dragonhar. I think you're missing a frame or 2 of animation cause it kind of looks like it's walking with a limp

Oh yes, I figured, thanks for the critique! This is the second animation I've ever made so I didn't really look into making it perfect.

This is very nice and fairly smooth! Some criticism if I may ^^
The animation is very very good, though the only thing is that the cat's back leg jumps forward when the animation starts a new loop c: Other than that, this is really good and I really like it, Awesome job!
