I’ve taken the comments I’ve got into consideration and worked some more on my walkcycle. It is a bit slow, but dont have time to fix now =)
I have recieved some comments regarding the tilting of the hip when he walks. Humans and other mammals tilt their pelvis when they walk because the foot that is on the ground pushes the hip on that side up and the leg that’s in the air pulls the hip down. They can do this because of the lumbar section of the spine. The lumbar section allows twisting between the ribcage and pelvis.
This type of dinosaurs does not have the lumbar section of the spine, much like the birds of today. They pretty much have the ribcage stuck into the pelvis. According to David Krentz (Drawing Dinosaurs: Anatomy and Sketching). Dinosaurs like this; “walked like ducks, just not as silly…”
