Practicing on quad walk cycles. Below is the link to to my first one. I posted 4 videos of 4 different angles on synksketch.  Any feedback is appreciated.

    Hey, I think this is great.
    I wonder if the spine is moving enough to convey weight?

    I was searching through Muybridge GIFs to find a lot of spine movement. It's actually pretty subtle even on an animal with a lot of mass. But it's certainly there. I think it might help to think more about your dragon's spine and how it communicates mass as he walks.



    I was thinking too about Tyrannosaurus and how that much mass causes heavy spine movement. Might be way too much for your particular character, but I think it could use a bit more of this:
