Description
First ever "Pony" animation that I made, and it isn't still done. I have only done Fluttershy with a walking animation. Rainbow Dash is yet to come, flapping her wings.Note: This is also my Project for our Computer Class.

I think this depends on what you're trying to do with this animation. If you're trying to show how smooth you can be in Flash, this is alright and you can build on it. Watch the legs; Flutters looks like she's shuffling a bit here (which might be appropriate depending on the situation). If you're planning to use this for an animation course, you might find that you don't need to focus 100% "pixel-perfect" animation.
In the spirit of MLP, try watching how the walk cycles are done in My Little Pony. Do a frame-by-frame breakdown of a walk cycle to see if you can spot how the legs move. If find yourself wondering about missing frames, see if you can cut them out and paste them to see how they might animate. Use a reliably high-quality source, such as the iTunes copies. The series premiers and Dragon Shy might make good sources since they feature quite a bit of walking, but Feeling Pinkie Keen may feature some running, too (Fall Weather Friends could be good, too).
I'd like to see where this goes. I think it's a great start and as a close fan of the series, I really want to see where you take this.
