Hey,

Surprised you've had no replies so far. I think the dog looks cute, perhaps post more views, (like the front and persp) I'm assuiming you're going for a cartoon style. I think he needs to walk faster, and have a bit more bounce. If you have this book - The Animators Survival Kit, it has a great section on doing character walk cycles but for characters with short legs. Kid of in the style of the old Hannah babera characters.

From the way the character looks he looks like a cute puppy that should be bouncing with each step. Nice start though. http://forums.cgsociety.org/images/icons/icon7.gif

Hi caroopy,

I didnt do the model and rigging for this character. I downloaded from lichiman.com. My mistake that I should have mentioned and credited when I post. Thank you for your suggestions. I will take a look at the book you mentioned.
