Basic things I keep in mind while animating. I hope some of you find these useful ^^

Books about animation I've read:
-"Cartoon Animation" by Preston Blair (Nice, colorful and simple :3)
-"The Animator's Survival Kit" by Richard Williams (Best for creative walk cycles :] Also, easy to read)
-"Timing For Animation" by Whitaker, Halas, Sito (More about timing things and more theoretical)

probably because i spend almost a month with just one, i do them all in 1440x1080 resolution and then resize for dA.

i wish i could do many more animations as many as you have in your gallery!
great great stuff! it's good to see a fellow animator on here

Thanks again for this, I applied it to a basic animation just now, you helped explain the concept of speed a lot! [link]
