Here is some walkcyckles I've done along Philips character rigging course.
Chronological order, best as last?

Textures ain't final and I'm still learning it. I've learned LW only two months. Any good texturing/surfacing tutorials out there?

Thousand thanks Philip for soft landing.

Looks great. I'm not so sure about the last animation. The Minestry of Silly Walks springs to mind. But heck, for two months of Lightwaving, this is pretty darn good. As for texturing tutes, have you had a look at Philip's Chili Pepper tutorial - its a freebie.

Thanks Fallenswordsman,

I'll check the peppers at eve. Never could have I modeled and rigged him in 2 months. It's modeled in truespace and I have more of them. I'll learn LW modeling later.

I did edit the mesh to get better flow, got rid of some tris and ngons, but still have 302 tris. Total polycount 5280, plain body 3059 faces. Also I did not import textures and retextured him in LW

I made few even more Goofy/John Cleese walks and ended up to think that if head waves that much should the cyckle be at least 32frs or to use side view. At least I feel dizzy as I naturally seek his eyes. What I 'm looking for is not casual walk, maybe I'll try adding some clumsynes and change the spacing too.
