Description
A rough 90-frame walk cycle I keyframed in about an hour's time, while watching one of Sci-Fi's airings of Primeval. Needs refinement, I know.If you're having trouble with the Flash player, it's also viewable on YouTube .
The Poser model and walk cycle are available for download at my website .
3D Model by Scott Ayers
Godzilla © Toho Co., Ltd., Centropolis Entertainment, and TriStar Pictures

Yes, and becoming more complicated with each release.
Poser 8 was released last month. I now have to master some new rigging features and the subtleties of indirect lighting.

His name is Zilla, stated by Toho themselves.....:\Godzilla nerdfan rant:
Anyways very nice, one thing that slightly bothers me is that Zilla's head isn't swaying like it would if it was a real creature.

For just an hour's time, this is some pretty fantastic keyframing. I see a few tweaks that could be looked at if you work on it some more- there's a jerk/pop at the end of the loop right before it starts over, making the loop less smooth. And the feet also float a little bit after hitting the ground. Easy fixes in the graph editor (I think that's what it's called; It's been years since I've touched a 3D program).

Thank you.
I shouldn't really accept full credit for that, though. I used the motions of Jurassic Park's raptors as a visual reference.

Every artist needs visual reference, especially animators.

Yeah, I know. They studied the motion of living animals, themselves, in the process of making the film.
But it still feels like cheating, in a way, since my work is essentially derived from theirs.

I see your point. But it's still part of the learning process. If you feel guilty about it, just put a note in the desc that you referenced another work.

I believe Scott modeled her in MAXON's Cinema 4D. He'd mentioned rendering her in that app, at least.
