Yang Splashin' - Animation

... and another animated Scene, I keep doing running creatures cause that's the best training

Anyway, I wanted to animate Yang since ages, and I already have a fave image of him, so I used that one as base

again, it's no frame-by-frame animation, it's done using the puppet Tool in AfterEffects and some more other effects and stuff added
First time that I added an animated reflection, also used a dog gallop dia as reference for the movement, hope it looks a bit more decent.

Just thought I share as the people seem to like those scenes, not really much happening there though

EDIT: well just ignore the head, it's looking like that because of the baseimage I used ( [link] ) not sure if I can change that, would need to draw the head completely new, it's hard to change those animations though...

EDIT 2: changed the HEAD and some other small parts, hope it looks better now
