IK handles placed and Walk Animated

i have placed the IK handles on the model and that was pretty much very easy to do. I didn't fully rig the model because the IK handles that i have placed should give me a competent moving rig and animation on the model.

For the walk animation, i used the Richard Williams Animator's Survival Kit book as refence for my animation. In the book, there is a page where it shows you how to do a 2D walk cycle and i basically applied the same principles on the 3D character model.




This is the first test that i did with the IK handles and the walk animation. I hid the mesh so i can see what the animation looks like on its own with the rig and handles.

The animation is okay but could definately be better.


Here is the walk animation cycle with the mesh and it looks again average but its gonna have to do for now.


So this is the final animation rendered and surrounded by textured backgrounds.
