Bean Bag Walk Studies
My final animation is a bean bag animation. I needed to get him to walk so I did some quick studies. Thought it would be fairly simple...wrong! I couldn't make his "legs" move right. And his top half was kind of going all over the place. I didn't want to see him at a side view either. I was silently wishing my paper was longer horizontally so I could keep drawing left to right...
I finally figured out something that might work with the last two bottom rows of drawings. I came up with a basic shape that would work for his "head" that could be repeated for every drawing, kind of like a rounded square. I also decided to have his feet get squished by his weight as he is pushing off the ground as he takes a stride.
