Green Potato Bug Animated

This is just the walk cycle first to see how his stomach jiggle and antennea work...seems to be working ok..
I also added a new texture to him...still simple but a bit more detail with fake occlusion.
:p

i think if you're looking for feedback on your walk cycle you should ditch the camera movement, so we can see from a static view how he's moving... if you were to composite three views (a front, a side, and a perspective) that'd be even better.

but from what i see so far, it looks convincing enough user added image
