Project 2 : Mani Walk Cycle

Here is the walk cycle of my character animation project

I encountered a bit of problem when i first started on my project. First thing i thought to myself was, this is not as easy as it looks. I began the walking with the legs apart. It was difficult to make the distance the same until i realized the values can be played around with. The walking animation was tricky as everytime i made a new movement. I always forgot to set the key frame for it and resulting that i have to redo my project. I done the project for about 2-3 times already before i finally managed to get all the steps correctly. I was unable to do it at first as i was very confused. I did the legs first but when i was doing it half way, I suddenly changed and did the arms. I confused myself and had to restart the whole animation.

Thus there is the elbow being bent. I finally managed
