I am currently creating an animation for WOTW and have eventually got to the walk cycle section (ha ha its so easy, not) I have uploaded it onto my Deviant art profile and would like some feedback from fellow WOTW fans. It is only a first attempt so dont be too harsh. My username is cbnuk. Link to my page cbnuk.deviantart.com/The walk cycle has just been put on and may not appear for 24 hours. but it is obviously named. If you chance to look at the rest of the profile ignore most of it as its quiet crap and was drawn a while ago. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO GIVE FEEBACK ON HERE OR ON DEVIANT ART Thank you |

Cheers I have put a few things up today and none are up yet *goes to looks*.
Back the first one has gone up so one more then the animation test will be up.
Just to remind you again it is a first test and I have never done a three leg walk cycle before. But I still want advice about it

The updated version is now online, dont take the house being destroyed as the final piece it is only a test movie and wont be finished in flash, so this is not the final piece, by a long shot Link www.deviantart.com/deviation/19370672/ |

Pretty good Redweed.
I think perhaps it may be better if the centre of balance is lowered a little during the motion and perhaps the shift of weight could be a little smoother and even slower- it looks a little like the machine is staggering a little.....
I love the way it disintegrates the house and kicks through the rubble though!

It not very smooth cos its a flash animation test so the body and legs dont have the flow they will have but thanks for the advice. it will destroy a house by kicking it though, my kinds of funny twist. I have also started writing a script/book for the war of the worlds throught the martians eyes

Nice start, are using flash to do the finished work or is this merely for trial and error?
Send it to Tim it could go in his film as extra footage!!!
I did a direct x model walking about. I based the motion on human walking with an extra leg. Doing that way, from the distance it looked like the legs were spinning.
Worked really well.

It wont be finished in flash, still not sure if it will be CG or line drawn, the concept art is looking good though. Cheers
