The knight himself looks like his legs blend in when he walks, I think It'll be easier to animate if you change the lighting a bit on our knight here and I think it'll give others, or if you're making a video game, our players/Audience a better understanding of how this knight is, but also take note into account, 1. What is his/her personality? 2. Is he/she injured? 3. Is he/she traveling over terrain or flat tile?
