So, after I showed my tutor group my animation of Pati's walk cycle, my tutor lent me another book that he thought could help. It's called Character Animation in 3D by Steve Roberts. It has many exercises in it for animating human characters and also creatures. The section on creatures walk cycles is particularly good for my direction. Not only does he explain the basic movements of a creature, but also the how the movements differ for different creatures and varying on the creatures course of action, how that creature should be moving for example, a just walking along or stalking something. He identifies specific differences to keep in mind and even talks about animals with different types of feet! eg, hooves or no hooves??? fun book
