I thought I'd have an attempt at variations of a walk cycle. Here, I have the moom model running. I used reference of 2d animation I'd done in the past do make this, specifically this sequence.

The versions of the ball bounces. They need a bit of cleaning up as well, I think, but they're more or less completely there.

Attempt at the last part of the brief. Here, the Moom is attempting to catch some balls being thrown at it, using my video footage as reference. The balls aren't featured yet, but I've tried to get the poses down. I think it's going alright! I just need to tidy it up so far.
