stop motion walk test

Another test I did while working on my high school project this year.
Here you can see a skeleton sneaking away with another one's skull.
the original idea was to make him running, but since their heads are the only things made of clay while all the rest is bare wire it made them really swingy and unstable, and since i only used magnets to hold them to my set surface I had a limited array of poses I could use or else they just toppled over. two heads on one character made that instability even worse.
So eventually it got to be sneaking instead of running. You can probably notice the movement starts a little rigid and gets smoother towards the end. another thing, I had oily finger tips from dealing with the clay, and as I held the feet to the surface so the little guy won't fall they left little spots that look like foot prints, not sur u can see those :P
