What's funny to me is that after I animated the cycle, I thought it seemed like a girl's run cycle instead of a man's.
I thought about turning his head toward his left side more on the animation similar to the inspiration material. Right now, he has that half-view where his face is exposed to the player. it might feel much better if he had more of a direct look toward the east as he runs in that direction.
I will definitely work on the arms.
As far as the legs go, it wasn't a "copy/paste". I had the inspiration next to where I was spriting so I could "follow along" so to speak as I drew my own sprite.
I do feel that if I pump the arms a bit, then add pumps to the legs, it would make the animation better.
I'll post an update tonight with the changes. Thanks for your input.
