Animated Character Pose Tests by CanineHybrid

Animated Character Pose Tests

CanineHybrid

Just some homework projects I've been working on. Thought my gallery could use more animation stuff, even though these are real rough pose tests that need serious work. Still a lot of hours are represented here and they're pretty fun to watch ;p I used my werewolf character Chel for these, so it's basically supposed to be unique to her and her personality.

1: Standing Originally was just thumbnails but I decided to clean them up a bit and play the sequence. Pretty straightforward- she's sitting on the floor and then gets up.
2: Walking Added gesture of looking around and flexing the hand like- almost like she's anticipating something but has a sense of power about the situation.
3. Jumping I plan to push a little more to really build up to it so she'll jump higher, but she's got a lot of anticipation and swings through the jump with a rather feral landing
4. Reaction/double take Goes from one emotional state to another as shown with both body motion and facial animation- the car alarm goes off, she slips her human disguise a little in a combination fear/anger toward the noise

By the way, this is Chel and a very old animation I did of her werewolf transformation:

So I'll probably get around to do a little more touch ups with these eventually. A pose test means it only has extremes and breakdowns (with a few contact drawings) so it doesn't have inbetweens to create smooth movement, however I did adjust the timing to be more finalized. If anyone really wants to see a pose test without timing adjustment, I can post one.
