Here's a little something I've been working on for about 1 hour so far:

(Don't ask me why the colours are weird, it's just the number of colours allowed in a gif.)

I'm still working on a little app so I can simply change the body parts, and have different characters doing different cycles. I used Lothar first since I already had his whole set of body parts as Flash components. Hope to get it finished, but if I don't, it means I'm either procrastinating, or decided to do something different as the project.

Edit: Here's a 75x100 size for anyone who'd like to use it as a avatar. Link

Yes, I'm working on them: I have the animation cycle up already, all I have to do is make copies of the components (head/arms/legs/body etc) and change them to make East/Virus/Silv.

Okay, that's Virus done. A little more work is needed when re-doing it, some parts were changed to fit better, hence the... huge legs. =)

*gone, no tail =P*

Double Post, but with good reason:

East:

No trenchcoat, but a jacket so he didn't look entirely naked.

I just revisited the thread to say that I'd forgotten to put tails on everyone ('cept Lothar). I think it was just that I started with Lothar, who doesn't have it as a different part: didn't replace it, since it didn't exist =P

Thanks for reminding me anyway, I'll keyframe them, I think. =)

Done:

East: Posted Image

Virus:Posted Image

All Done now:

Rogue: Posted Image

Please tell me if anything's wrong (not animation-wise: character accuracy), I appreciate input, even if it's bad: shows that there is someone watching =)

Edits:
1 - East's gun has a thicker barrel.

For some reason looking at these makes me think of some bizarre Contra mod, with the EN crew running, gunning and blowing shit up.

Hmm, another random brain fart from my end. Pretty good those animations, though.

Eastwood better watch where he's running, or he'll lose a vital organ to Rogue's beam sword :P Rogue is still tail-less by the way, and Virus' tail might need a bit more detail.

They are good, enough for me to be a little jealous that my skills do not include animation ;)

Those are some good animations actually and pretty fluid, more notably when smaller. And looks hilarious and cool as a signature as you have done.

Rogue's belt is on the wrong shoulder, and his sword's really long.

I made a hand drawn Virus walk cycle a long long time ago. Lookie

Nice one, Virus: I'd do a keyframed one if I had the time, but tweened compnents look alright small =)

I don't think I'll change the gifs from now, considering that they're not particularly fluid anyway.

Just a small note on the Rogue one, the sword seems to be between his legs in one frame when it's coming down. I know you said you wouldn't change and all but....well, just in case you didn't notice. It's probably just a layer being in the wrong place or something really simple.

Nice run animation though, they are not easy to do, I know! :P
