Quite nice!
I'm not really good at criticism but would you mind if I pointed out two small things I noticed? =)

Thanks! If you'd like to leave criticism, that's fine. Just keep in mind, this was a project for class. There was a deadline to meet, and other classes/projects that didn't allow me to put my full attention here.

That said, I'm not trying to make excuses, and i'm sure I already know the things you're going to point out, as i've seen the errors myself. :p I'm happy with it, but I know it's nowhere near perfect.

Hehe - yea, deadlines limit everything =)
- The right leg is going a bit too far up in frame 4, which makes the walk a bit asymmetric.
- The legs seem to be walking to a different point then the body is facing.

I don't see either of those, but okay! :p

Now I can't unsee it!
He's right. The right heel comes up much higher than the left. I think there is a frame missing. It's there in the key frame sketch, but not the final product. Although the final version has better pacing.
And while the body is in perfect profile, both feet sometimes feel like they're turned to the right.

Overall though, I think it's pretty good. I probably would have looked at this for a very long time before noticing because the upper half grabs my attention more. =)

Thanks! There's no frame missing, but you CAN see where I erased where it was before. Honestly I can't tell which I like more, the high bent right leg, or the left leg that doesn't bend much. With the angled legs, yeah it's the kneecaps and the multiple toes showing that gives it that illusion. Either way, it's a finished thing, with all of its imperfections. It's not something I plan to fix.

Don't worry, I wasn't telling you to fix it. I understand that you would rather move on to new things. I just know that it's really hard to improve if you can't tell what's wrong, so I wanted to help as much as I could. I don't normally point out flaws, but since you seemed to want constructive criticism, I just wanted to make sure you saw it.

Unfortunately, I'm not a very good writer. So I have a hard time being tactful with my writing. Sorry if I said anything wrong.

Nothing wrong. :3 And I DO enjoy constructive criticism. I just already knew about the errors, and having 5 different people point out the same one can be a little annoying. X3 Keep it mind, you were piggybacking on a criticism someone else already pointed it out. If it's been brought to the artist's attention, there's no need to point it out again! :p

Well, you did say "I don't see either of those" and I couldn't tell whether you were joking or not. If i knew you were joking I wouldn't have said anything.

I had seen the mistakes they pointed out. It was KIND of sarcasm, but also I just didn't know how to reply, so was kinda like... a way to end the conversation. (which apparently didn't work. XD)

Her right leg moves a little too far up compared to her right one, but aside from that, this is really impressive! Amazingly smooth :3

Thanks! and yeah, it's been pointed out numerous times already. :p It's a finished product tho, and won't be getting fixed.
