I am sooo pleased with this one! He is so bouncy in his movements and his actual body. His belly moves up and down a little as he bobs with each step. His steps aren't as large as the tall characters but still proud like steps. The eye is a bit freaky though, i have just realised...
Now then, this one took me WAY longer than i expected. I tried out a different technique this time....
I animated everything in sections! The legs were animated first, then the body, the arm, head and then the tray.
How i did this was creating a coloured layer ontop of the others, and then cloning it on top on key frames. Like when the legs touch the ground, and then come back up. The body moves up with it, so i would get a basic jerky movement on the coloured layer. Then i inbetweened that with black!
With the arm, i animated around 8 frames with the desired movement, then placed them all on the key frames moving them to where the body would be. And then i inbetweened that. This way i could get each part moving as a whole... but also having its own movement.
Heres how detailed the inbetweening was on this part!
Again, some inbetweeing of the legs.
And here we have the amount of frames i drew, by hand, each different. So lets see thats 5 X 36... 180 frames in total.
