So here’s my first go at building a walk cycle using Flash CS3 + AS3. This tutorial was really helpful (thanks, Adam). Initially, I wanted to create a character that would mix Homer Simpson with Steve Urkel, but none of the sketches I did were at all satisfying. Instead, I illustrated a more Asian-looking version of “Grandad” from the Boondocks. My progress, including a semi-function interaction and some juvenile humor, is below. Unfortunately, I’ll probably be in this guy’s shoes within fifty years or so…
