Ok Joseph 2 more hints for you here

I have made a small quick edit on your animation cycle on just the front leg - ignore the back leg for now

yours


mine


download this and look at it carfefully - but remember its not perfect.
also look at the 2nd link i gave you READ IT all.

if you want it to be an all out run make some frames where his legs arent on the ground at all.

new version:

i'm afraid the arms may look like hes running and the legs may look like hes walking...does that show to anyone else or is it just me?

[Joseph]

sorry for double post but I updated yet again, and this topic dropped down pretty far pretty fast, so this also counts as an illegal bump...sorry again.
update-

[Feron]

I think you lost a lot of character in the most recent version.  While the legs are good, i think the arms were better before.  the arms were slightly too exaggereated but it looked better.  Perhaps try and find ground between them?

[Joseph]

I was thinking that too, but remember, these are just base colors to work with.  once they're colored I think they'll bit a lot better.  Also, the character will be holding a sword and a handgun.  thanks though.  I may consider moveing the shoulder a bit more forward as he swings his arms forward...unsure about it and the finished product though.

Could you make the background lighter.  I can barely see the back 2 limbs. 

[Terley]

just gotta say, great progress on the animation so far, get some details in already 

I prefer the slower movin arms but I think it depends if this is gonna be more cartoony or...

[Joseph]

thanks for that terley, and ill work on details next.

here's a lighter background-


with the arms; I wanted movement in each frame but we'll see once its done, or at least colored.

[Joseph]

im done!  I think...I may change one thing:


the left hand appears in the front of him in two frames...im thinking thats too much?

This is some progress, really. 

Regarding the hand, I don't really mind that the left hand is seen in two frames, my brain kind of makes it into one frame, but we'll have to see what the other pixelationers have to say, heh.
