makes me think of the Monty Python sketch regarding silly walking. good animation

[ThirstyPixels]

@sicsoma two of the walks are directly from that sketch and one is based off of a walk from it, but somehow here they completely loose their humor

[steelstoner]

lol make new vids. i like what i have seen and want to see more.

[ThirstyPixels]

@steelstoner I know! I've been really slow at putting up a new one but I've just been working out the story and procrastinating... I have another finished piece, it just needs sound.

[murasakint]

Awesome! I think the band from the Smithsonian CD is Huun-Huur-Tu.

[ThirstyPixels]

Maybe, but it's listed as "Various Artists"... I think if it was such a famous group it would say so...

[Khono]

Haha, very odd. Well done :)

@ThirstyPixels

Maybe they "lose their humor" for the same reason Ryan Larkin's film "Walking" succeeds: it becomes less comical and more about watching the beauty of the figure in motion, and this film is very beautiful in many ways. I love your design sense! Love the flag people and the people toiling over their butt-looking sack of flesh. They're very original and unique creations very special and unique to you - keep pushing that envelope! Excellent work!

A little too weird, but the walking nut sacks were funny. Great drawings though.

Kinda reminds me of the video Walking, Ryan Larkin.

He's an amazing artist and is best known for his first video

[atthetopofmyvoice]

Great fun and playfulness.

More please. :D
