Disgruntled Businessman

A return to the basics - a walk cycle. Here I tried to inject a clear personality/attitude into the walk, hopefully it comes across okay.
Crits and comments are welcome as always :)

    Looks good, Andy.

    I am not sure about his feet though. He looks so dejected and fed up with the world at large, his face and shoulders are heavy. But his feet seem quite light compared to the rest of the weight that’s bearing down on him. I would have had them drag a bit or something maybe.
    Well, that’s just my humble opinion anyway.

    Hehehe I love his hat :)

    Hey Amanda, thanks for the feedback, I think you’re right about the feet, I may have to revisit them… I was going for a bit of a heavy clomp, and yeah, they should probably have a little more weight and drag closer to the ground. Cheers!
