Hi,

Nice cycle. I think you got the weight distribution right from side to side, but not from back to front. Also, his hips dont seem to be rotating to follow the leg - which wouldn't be too big of a problem if the shoulder movement wasn't exaggerated. Comes off as arrogant but only in upper body... Head wobble needs some adjusting too.

Hope this gives you something to think about.

Cheers

I think shoulders ,if exaggerated like this , should lead the arm/elbow movement (visible in forward motion) .Kind of like a wave motion, not all at once.
Arms looks stiff in the passing position,maybe there is no need for them to be so straight in elbows as it's not natural anyways.
Maybe rotate hands and bend forearms inwards even more, especially when in front of the body. Also check eye blink as it seems he might be one of those V series lizards.

Nice work!

Arms look stiff from the front view. Head bob in the side view seems to be awkward in comparison to the rest of the body; maybe reverse the keyframes for the head's up and down movement.
