Hi guys. I want to make a walking animation for this guy:

But unfortunately it is really hard for me, especially with the stick arms and legs.

Arms and legs of the same side shouldn't move at the same time!
Makes it feel really awkward. Switch that around! When the left arm moves, the right leg moves, and vice versa!  Smiley

Yes! Also, arms and legs should never be stationary. They should swing! Try moving the bottom of the leg inward a pixel and adding a pixel to the bottom, perhaps, for the one that's moving forward. The opposite arm should swing forward with it. Then try moving the other arm and leg "back" by moving pixels up as though they're swinging behind.



Maybe try something like this for the right-leg-left-arm-extended frame?
