I fixed one walk cycle by looking at Muybridge but then started playing
around with "character." The leg movement is largely unchanged,
although specific advice is appreciated...
oh crap how did *he* get in there?!!

You know, that's actually starting to look pretty realistic. I think you
need to work on your model a little more - the arms and legs, especially
near the elbows and knees, look too thin, but you're really not too far from
a realistic human shape. I must say I'm impressed. The face needs some work
also, though I'm sure that must be very difficult to get looking right.
As for the walking, I'd like to see their hands in a more relaxed position
(fingers more straightened out for instance), and their arms maybe a bit
less bent; it looks like they're concentrating really hard on their walking.
BTW - the guy running behind them looks strange since his feet are lower
down than theirs are - or is that intentional? =)

the biggest thing you're missing is the passing position where the body
(t the hips) goes up, and consequently the position of impact where it
goes down. There's never a moment where the leg is straight, and that
occurs in a regular walk.
If you're serious about learning a walk cycle- I'd suggest: The
Animator's Survival Kit- it is a great book.

Points well taken on thinness (still).
I was intentionally trying to make
1) one of them strut like Superman on reconnaisance for his enemy and
2) the other to shamble like an oaf.
So some points, like open hands, would make sense more for the oaf.
The guy in the back is the walk cycle of the GottaPeeMan, from my 01Jun02
posting. I added it for comic effect but was probably a cause for ROTFLOL
for myself alone.

I have a half dozen books on animation and walk cycles, including Muybridge.
Highly specific criticisms, like:
> There's never a moment where the leg is straight, and that
> occurs in a regular walk.
are highly appreciated. I'll study this detail in my books. thanks.

muybridge is ok, but for a reference that guides you to think about the
motions involved in animation, I'd recommend something else- Muybridge
is sort of like having a dead body to dissect when you've never even
read through an anatomy book or been instructed about what to expect,
IMO. Debatable how helpful it is except to the geniuses among us.
You'll need to do it again and again with body after body when others
have already done this for you.
Again, Animators Surviavl Kit... check it out. :)
