Topic: Michael Jackson-Esqe Lego Dancing

When I began this I had 3 moves I wanted to get in there for certain, the moonwalk, the spin and toe stop, and the pelvic thrust. I don't think the moonwalk turned out well, but Frogtrap gave me a nice idea for improving it in chat that I may try if I do dancing again. The last move was inspired by the Zombie arms in Thriller. Anyway, just wanted some quick animation practice, feel free to critique (although I'd rather you steer away from comments on the lack of set and light flicker, I'm already aware of that mini/wink ).

Eh, the moonwalk just didn't cut it, but I liked the other moves.

Pretty nice job, though like T.G. said you can see the blue clay or whatever it is.
