  Cowboy Bebop is so mad right nowJan 21, 2010 2:59 AM PST | url
 
Added 3 new A* comics:Today was the *other* sequence I'd been dreading animating for this episode: an actual honest-to-goodness run sequence. Fortunately for me I happened to notice a pretty clever cheap 6-frame run sequence in eh I think it was episode 3 of Cowboy Bebop a while back; centered on the running character from the side, it went like this: 1) full right arm, left leg extension, 2) slight pull back, 3) right hand just forward of neutral, left leg just behind, 4) full left arm extension, right leg extension, 5) slight pull back, 6) left hand just forward of neutral, right leg just behind, loop.
 
It's got a nice spring to it, and I cheapened it even a bit more by using the same silhouette for the left as for the right. Here's a rough of it, minus maybe a little forward/back motion on Vero, and of course the foreground and background crowds will be zipping by:

Hm maybe I'll see if I can make it a little driftier, since he's in low gravity here.
 
Did anyone suspect he was wearing his good ol' imitation Metropole suit beneath his cloak this whole episode? :D
