i love the fact that they run on all fours while being mostly bipedal otherwise. my advice on the tail would be simply to raise it so it's straight behind it.

I imagined it being more cheetah-like, although I also imagined it being at top speed, so it might just be that. Otherwise, it's cool to see a Psychoraptor in motion. I hope you eventually do more Psychoraptor animation.

yea im actually not happy with the animation either. its not fluid and lightweight enough.

I love it!
Only I personally think you shoul have added one or two more frames to make it a little bit more slower and te cycle have more ease to it. C:
Otherwise I loveit! Amazing!

I really do love this animation
Though there are only two suggestions maybe try and do a wolf-based run?
Also to bring the tail up a little higher to show it has even more balance.

Don't know why but this reminds me of kangaroo moving about on all fours, only sped up and without the tail being used as a fifth limb.

That's sounds like a pretty huge difference

great start! i say you need to lower the head[slightly] and raise the tail[a lot!]. decide if the psyrap runs more like a dog, or a cat, and watch some vids of that animal's locomotion [cheetah/wolf maybe]
better late than never, eh?

this is very impresive, the movements are extremely realistic. as for what you said about the tail its not all that bad. it seems to me that that would be wut it would look like if it was running at a slow unconcerned pace. now if it were sprinting i would have had the tail be a bit more rigid and straight out behind it, and have the tial dip down slightly as the rear legs go forward and rise slighly when they move back. im no good at drawing animations and dont have anywhere near the talent you do when it comes to art but i look at alot of animation because i may go or may not go into the field of game design some day

Hey, it looks a lot better than the runcycles I do. I love the head and shoulder motion.

I love your animation here and could you possibly put your frames into individual pictures? I have a character that is four legs and has raptor feet, so I know the struggle of figuring out how on earth the legs are going to work while running. Walking is not such a battle although I am debating whether to have both legs on one side move at the same time or have them alternate. I guess it's something I have to experiment with to figure it out.

awesome, i love it!
Only a few things that look a little odd, and that's probably just from how i see it. It may be going a little too fast, longer and slightly slower stribes might be more energy conserving. And lifting the hindlegs a little higher would make it a lot less likely to fall over and it would get more power.
But other then that its awesome, i love how you have the head moving. -favs-

Really well done. Though, The rear end should probably raise up more...just a bit.
I need to get flash on this computer...make a new run animation for my D'rakka.

Nicely done, it has a more natural look to it than I see with other run animations.

OddFacade [2007-11-23 23:57:27 +0000 UTC]
Just faster than a trot, it seems. Full speed, though, would probably have the creature's arms held far in front of him before the hands/feet land.

yea its just before full speed. its challenging figuring out wat frames should be longer and which should happen quicker
