Ant(ish) Walk Cycle

[d0c]

hi .. i'm no animation expert hehe this is the second thread i'm replying to today :) .. well its a nice walk cycle i like it .. i would only do 2 things to improve on it .. i would kick the out a lil bit when he reaches the passing position .. and if u want you can rotate his ankle so his his foot/heel contacts on a lil bit of an angle ..

i dont know if i'm clear on what i'm saying .. let me and i'll try and explain better

I found this (http://www.junglewalk.com/frames.asp) on an adjacent thread, it may help to get that cycle looking more realistic :) Just click on the writing next to the butterfly pic in the top frame, it should take you to links of insect movement videos. May help, i hope :)
