That's pretty cool bro. You should use it in some of your serious animations, it kinda seems more like a cinematic angle then like running. It's cool.

ehhh it's more of an arm waving and background tweening practice. my advice is to make the composition and form of the trees more irregular. maybe you could try making a second row of trees on the back and make them move slower than the ones in front. and it seems like you're trying to go for complementary for the colours. the grass is deteriorating the harmony for being too light and perhaps the background colour should be darker to give the sense of clustered trees aka being in a forest.

in turn you can CnC my grammars.

Yes, sometimes my style is slow. But maybe i'll do it faster. Thanks. :)

Thanks for the Cnc. I'm bad at creating background, but i'll try to make it better. :)

it's not about how good you are at drawing a background really. it's more to your understanding on how the environment you're trying to represent works. anyone can make 3 different forms and trees and compose them in a way that will seem arbitrary, it's the knowledge that they posses that leads them into doing so.

Well, the better you can draw the better you can represent said background. As for the second row of trees you were talking about previously I couldn't agree more. I believe that is called parallax backgrounds.

As for the run itself, there isnt much I can really crit on. the forearms dont have much overlap going on and are very stiff. Some people will make the back arm a little darker in shade to create depth in there close up scenes, this would also stop the current illusion that the arms down cross over each other. Also his stride seems different to speed in which hes actually travelling.

Thank you for the Cnc. You're right, i should use darker color for back arm, and i should match Arzon's Speed and background speed.
