3/4 movement planning guide

Annotations completed =)

Just a general 3/4 view guide and a quick introduction on walking and troting cycles. I excluded a run to try and encourage people to take their own initiative and apply what i cover in my run guide to this themselves. =p

My walk cycle is a bit fast, usually, i'd go for at least 16 frames or more for a walk cycle, offset the left and right foot by 8 and the back legs being 3 frames faster than the front.

Head and tail not included

Wow! Great Idea! I have never thought of that! I am sure it will make walk cycles a little bit easier to follow without getting messed up or confusing. Because I had that problem before! Thankyou for uploading this! It really helps! :D
