I have copied several of the walks from Richard Williams' Animator's Survival Kit. So, I wanted to try my hand at creating my own walk with one of my own characters. You may recognize the cat from my portfolio for Capilano's Commercial Animation program. I draw him quite frequently. I wanted to give him a relaxed, confident stride. This is by far the most complex animation I have ever attempted. I am very happy with the results. The motion of the arms is more stiff than I would like. Also, some of the frames by themselves are actually kind of ugly. I think it would read better and boil less with thinner lines on the final colored version.
