Thank you for your good words as well as for your critique
I am aware of the "sliding across" effect of his feet.
I did try to make them lift a bit but it didnt look right to me.
Of course I could be very easily wrong as I am only an amateur animator for the moment.
But it was the characters massive weight that made me think that it whould be more realistic if his heavy feet wouldn't come off the ground.
About the wireframes:
I think you ll find this youtube link very intresting [link]
Just make sure you watch at least the very first 10"
See you!

Hmmm... for the weight try looking at this animation:

The monster is meant to be really heavy, but it seems to have a real sense of "weight"? Maybe there is something that can help you with the sliding here?
I'm adding the vid to my favs

Thank you for sharing that walk cycle with me.
I think that, that case is quite different from mine.
If you notice the Troll's feet are elephant like, so he can't really raise his heel anywhere as high as this creature you showed me.
Another thing is that the Troll walks on 2 legs instead of 4, so each leg takes a lot more weight, so i guess its more difficult to lift.
Then again, all of these could be all nonsence! lol
But I DO remember trying to lift his feet as I was animating it, and didnt look right to me.
Finally, thank you so much for adding the video to your favourites!
I put a lot of effort in order to put it all together,
as well as make a "making of" video about it.

looks cool but the background image does not move

It doesn't move much because it's far in the background I guess

I think it just lack of dynamical shadows to be perfect, but it's already an amazing animation

Thank you!
By dynamic shadows, do you mean more intense shadows cast by the Troll itself?

Awesome char design, and the interior is nice too, I just don't like the ceiling, I think the grid doesn't fit well to the Greek theme.

Thank you!
I used a roman style temple as a reference for the ceiling.
If you happen to know how the ceiling was in Greek temples or even have a drawing of it that would help me a lot.
Thank you once again for the critique
