I especially like the one with the gun, I think the fact that it's sped up a little makes it look much smoother. The rock one was great too, there's definite improvement.

I like the gun test too, it turned out better than expected as it was my first with 30 fps.

i love the way the zombie walks, the only thing that really bothers me in that animation is the way the feet don't stay in place by the end... you sometimes you smooth out too much the movements but you'll learn that as you gain experience animating ;) good job you are improving a lot... keep em comin!!!

Your foot placement leads to alot of flaws, and generally decreases the execution of the animation.
This link leads to a tutorial by zawmbee for foot placement.
