C&C on an animation

[coldmage]

I'm thinking this would be the idle, and I'm still stuck as to how I should do the forward and back animation without making it look to awkward or to much like the idle..

[CelioHogane]

any example of any failed atempt?

[coldmage]

Not really, I just can't think of how it would work since I need all of the characters to remain in the same position the entire time...I'll try and make one, it's more so of a problem that I am lost as of where to start.

Here's a crude attempt at the forward animation.I kinda want it to be more than just get big and then get small, but I'm not really sure as to what else there is to do...

Hey, can't see your image. You're linking to the image page, not the image itself. You need to add .png at the end, and in the future when you upload, just click the icon next to the "bbcode" section to the right and it will give you the proper code.

Hey, thanks, but could you tell me how to upload a GIF to the forum?

[Joe]

I don't think we can upload to the forum, it saves a lot of bandwidth that way.
Anyway, your character doesn't really look like he's going forward. You need body rotation and a side view.

Ok, thanks for the advice.I'll go from here and finish it on my own time.By the way, do you know how to close a thread?
