Description A sketchy walk cycle test of a cat. This took me about an hour and overall I'm quite proud of it! Any critiques on what could be fixed are much appreciated.
This particular walk cycle was a pain due to it walking backwards at first (A common flaw with my walk cycles and run cycles), but it was easily fixed. I then realised that as the front paws walked forwards, the back paws walked backwards. x___x It took me a while to move each part onto a separate layer to fix it. Also, the tail is a bit stiff but if I ever decide to finalize this then that will be fixed.

Info:
10 frames (Classic tweened over 100 frames)
12 FPS on twos
Adobe Flash Pro CS6
Around an hour of work

hmm, the leg movement is good!

however i can spot spme things you need to fix

the tail, as you said, is very stiff

and so is the rest of the body

the head bobs and if you want slightly cartoony then ear movement also helps

also slightly more defined shoulders

other than that it looks great!!

The smaller animation at the far bottom right looks like it's actually walking compared to the larger one; it's walking but also sliding as it goes. Still very nice work though.

Ahh, yeah. I'm aware of that. I'm going to fix the fact that it looks like it's sliding.
Thanks.
