Very nice...

I like the antenna to... as a beginner, I always wonder when I see something different: how the hell did he do that?? user added image

I like the subtle movements in his hips and shoulders.... make the walking more smooth and natural... It almost doesn't look like a machine! (is that a fault??)

I would make those fingers a little less stiff (is that the word??)

Sorry for my english... user added image

best regards

Really good.... only crit is that the arms are moving abit weird.. Try rotaing the elbow up as the arms are infront and back of hm and straighten it out as it hits the mid way...

Great stuff keep it up....

Thank you guys, this is the stuff that makes you goin' on user added image

Daniel, your english is quite good and thanks for the good crits. If you wonder how I did the antenna, have a look at my other thread ... gave me some headache in the beginning :o) And you're right ... I didn't pay attention to the hands yet.

If anyone has an idea what this fella can do as a short anim, any suggestions are welcome.
