Hi. I'm new in animation and I basically just draw on paper most of the time. Which software do you use for animating cycles ? How do I learn to use the software to practice the walking cycles ?

I’m completely new to animation as well. I found a great beginner software called ‘FlipaClip’. It’s a lot of fun and great for beginners like me.
I want to thank you very much for taking the time to look at my drawing and for the positive feedback. I am drawing at a pace that I have never done before. Taking HTDC and Proko courses as well as attending academy of art university in the spring hopefully I’ll be a force to be reckoned with.
For other people viewing this message. I am 41yr old and just starting my art journey. It’s never to late. Passion doesn’t always come when your 18yr old. Love the community and love all the art I see. Keep that fire going.

Hey Gaylon,
Nice work on the sketchbook. One of the things I noticed is that you need to add some structure to your drawings. I did a quick sketch of one of your drawings to show you how adding structure can help your drawings feel more solid. I hope it helps :)
Thank you so much. I really appreciate the advice and the time it took you to draw that out for me. I will work on my structure tonight.
Very creative. I like your spooky characters. I noticed a few pages where you drew people in a pose where the underside of the chin is showing significantly, which is a very difficult pose to draw. Here are a few Proko tutorials that could help you:
Loomis Head: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1EPNYWeEf1U&list=PL39135B8D190B7C97
Draw a Head from an Extreme Angle: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PgK90TpV5fA&list=PL39135B8D190B7C97&index=4
The Loomis method is a very simple + easy way to draw a head from imagination. Use that method to help you lay in the the features in more extreme poses.
Hope that helps :) Cool sketchbook, keep it up!
First week drawing and saving for my first class. I've been drawing for one hour a day. Hope it's paying off
