15 fps walking and running test.

Wow, you have really improved! The walk cycle is very good, the only imrpovement i can suggest is taking a frame where both legs are atthe same place, instead of transitioning straight into the next step like on the tutorial I linked to. When running, try to keep the body bent fowards slightly. Use this tutorial for guidance: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0XrRJAiIepY
EDIT: Also there was some light flicker

Thanks for your advice! I tried bending him forward for the run cycle but it is hard to balance him between the studs.
OOOooohhh fancy. I love the nice slow walk. I dont think it was a 4 frame walk cycle, was it 5 or 6? Anyway, as for bending him forward for the run cycle, it actually looks more real if the minifig bobs forward and backwards. try to have him standing upright when you balance him, and when he is landing on his foot, have him leaned more forward. Personally I find that FancyPant's run cycle http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0XrRJAiIepY looks best, as it's not so clunky. Overall it was great!
Little bit of light flicker but other fantastic man! Good job

Can you post how to do it? I've been looking for a walk cycle that is slower thab a 4-frame cycle and this looks great!

How about a 5-frame walk cycle? I use it and it works great! Tutorial.
