Walk Cycle Revised

This is the cleaned up walk cycle with coloring. It shows a three different approaches. The first frame uses the paint bucket and brush. The second frame uses paint bucket only, with the pencil used to create sections to fill in, then the pencil lines are deleted. The rest of the animation uses a second layer with shadows and highlights drawn with a brush and then uses the Overlay Blend and Alpha at 60% to create the shadows and highlights.

Rough Walk cycle

Here’s my rough walk cycle, I wanted to convey a casual and relaxed attitude. The biggest challenges were keeping the design consistent and motions fluid.

Rough draft

Theres a minor error that can be easily resolved. It seems as if one leg is being emphasized in the walk cycle. So during the next class visit, I will fix this so that the gif looks smooth. Another error was the hair size changing a lot. Aside from that, I feel as if I get the core concepts of the project.
