Animation - Running mutt

My first animation. It has about two major flaws in the movement, but I still rather like how it turned out.

Nicely done. Kahvie's front right leg (from the wrist down) seems a bit rubbery like there's no bones in it. But it's fantastic for your first time. Man, I wish I had Photoshop so I can bring my characters to life. I bet it's a great feeling^^

Thanks for the critique and comments guys! I'll be sure to keep the suggestions in mind when I attempt another animation:).

Yeah, that was a bit intentional, but I'll try to tone stuff like that down next time.

Yes or with Image Ready...
I like the hair

And the running ^^ If it'd had more frames with head goin a little down the animation would've been better ,but stil awsome;)!

Very nice animation there. ^_^

Some coloring could spice the thing more up. I simply love the anatomy of the character. You draw very good. Keep up the good work.

Yep, using layers and the save for web->animate option:).

Yeah, I was hesitant to move the head much for fear of losing the expression, but now that I have looked over the flaw in the actual animation, I'll be trying not to make the same mistake the next time:).

Thank ye all for the comments!

Wow, awesome. Great job! I've been wanting to do an animation for one of my wolf chars for a while too. Who knows when that'll be made though >.<
