Actually, "breaking the bones" for your "realistic" movements can be used for a good cartoon like touch. I insist you go watch the way Goofy, from the Mickey Mouse cartoons, walks.
Slow it down, and then watch how he has is leg on backwards and his arm like a pin-wheel.
oh yes, it's fun.

To prevent the shrinking/shifting/growing issue, it's always a good idea to draw the hey drawings first and then add the in-betweens.

Oh you mean like pose by pose animating?

I meant 'key' instead of 'hey', silly me.
You first draw the 'key poses' and fill up the time in between. It's also called pose to pose, indeed.
