Cat Run [Trot?] Cycle -- My Second

haha, honestly, this has FAIL written all over it.
i cannot animate for my life. XD
my first was on one of my older youtube accounts, but i'd rather not share it, as it is quite ugly and embarrassing. :]
however, i /have/ improved, thanks to everyone who commented with helpful criticism, as well as tips.

programs used;;
drawing - ms paint and gimp 2.6
animating - gimp 2.6
adding effects and all that jazz - sony vegas platinum pro 9.0

music;;
jason mraz - i'm yours

OOO That's REALLY good, especially for a first/second/third attempt! ;] I mean it, but I suggest finding a better animating program, you have REAL GOOD potential, but MS PAINT isn't ... errm.. sophisticated... enough. I use Photoshop [because you can have layers, and add effects, and other things too.] And plus, it's you have alot of tools and fun ;] Well you don;t have to listen, but I just thought I'd give you a tip l;3

@MusicalToontown Thanks, Chi~! :D

I plan on moving to Photoshop but I'm still experimenting with it ~ I don't know enough about it to start animating, since I've hardly drawn with it. :P

But mhm, thanks xD

AWESOME job. :] You should get like one of those fursona's or something and animate you'd be really good.

MusicalToontown's right.. Paint isn't very... uh.. well... it just doesn't have realistic tool effects O_O. I only have Paint. My parents won't get Photoshop for me, torrenting and keygens are illegal, so I'm stuck with Paint :P

*Helpful Critisum?

Well in the walk cycle its a lilll bit unrealistic JUST A TICH! :o

Or it looks like to me i dont know maybe i havent seen cats running for a while LOL

I would suggest looking at a cat running in slow motion? And add a few more frames maybe?

But its still awesome for this many attempts.

trust me i couldn't do any better
