This is a part of a work in progress, the music is slightly different tempo to the actual music the animation is timed for, but I'd prefer some audio on these clips to no audio.



I used Victor's Walk Ruler to help with the walk cycling. viewtopic.php?t=19490

Thanks everyone. This was a major breakthrough for me, the colors. I watched a video of a guy called Kyle T Webster who is an illustrator. He was talking about how he always mixes up his color palette from the three primaries, so I decided that I was going to start doing that rather than just picking colors from the spectrum in the color chooser. I really loved it because it was like the colors weren't chosen by me but I was forced to use a particular range base on the three primaries I started with. I wouldn't have colored this scene as well if I just went ahead like I normally do. Here's a link to the video.

That's great! Love the designs. The guy's bouncing nose made me laugh. :)

Re: Kyle T. Webster, coincidentally my wife pointed me to his site this past week. She's been watching his digital natural media tutorials and she bought one of his brush packs. I haven't taken the time to look at his work myself yet but I know she recommends it highly.

His brushes are awesome. It seems everyone is using his brushes. He updates them often and the updates are free and forever.
