Walk Cycle - two test

[Andini]

cecofuli, change the ".exe" of your 3rd (full render) link to ".mov"
It should be: Figo_Render.mov (video/quicktime Object) (http://www.treddi.com/upload/cecofuli/Upload/LAVORI/Animazioni/Animazione%20Pipotto/Figo_Render.mov) Otherwise, your walk looks great! I'm not a professional or anything, but I think it looks really good.

Hey,

not bad. But here is some crits from what I see:

Test 01: Good walk cycle, cute character too. However I would like to see one or both things. One is to see more head movement. It seems too look at the same spot. Throw in some rotation just slightly so it doesn't look like his head is stiff. Two would be to add some blinks, eye movement, and even just a little facial expression. That is if you have the character setup that much. The rest is good, I like the follow through on his hands, makes them nice and loose. Other than that, I think its good. Watch his left hand in the 3/4 view and see if that hand looks a little stange. Could just be the angle, but a little funky.


Test 02: I like this as well, interesting how the delay plays into the motion. His left and right wrist on the swing up to his chest, move the key that bends his wrist up 2 or 3 frames sooner. It goes up so straight and then it just breaks a little late. Also, just the timing of the arms swinging could be a little smoother of offset from the main body movement. It seems like the keys lined up with the rest of the body. A little offset or make the delay in the arm swing smoother just to add a little more interest. Just my opinion. I like the head movement a lot more than Test01, the eyes kind of look sleepy or too bouncy as they roll in the head. Nice body twist.


Nicely done, I like to see some of your other animations.

What software are you using? Is it 3DSMax?

Good rendering and lighting, shows off your work nicely.

Keep it up!
