Never got around to converting this to a gif soooo here you go!

I know the face is kinda derp and anatomically this probably wouldn't work xD but that's the beauty of animation

the full cycle is 32 drawings i think....?

The goal was to have 3 set of legs that were moving at different times, all legs have to touch the ground, they all have to be attach to one body and they couldn't move 3 and 3 (the entire right side then the entire left side)

Vision- 4/5
Good- I certainly couldn't draw that well. I particularly like the tail. The face isn't derp at all.
Problems- the front of the front red shoulder shrinks, it looks a little weird. The foot-passing is a little awkward, but I don't know how else you'd do it. the chest randomly jumps around.

Originality-3/5
Good-I haven't seen one of these before, though that may just be inexperience talking.
Problems- None that I know of, but I'm rating it around average just in case.

Technique-4/5
Good- The coloured legs make it easier to follow. the leg pairs all move seperately, it looks very natural. The anatomy is very win.
Problems- The tail animation is a little jaggedy, the forehead and neck lines flicker, and there are random blobs of colour. I'm not complaining, but it isn't really very polished.

Impact- 5/5
Good- It is just plain awesome.
Problems- None.

Average-4.5/5
I'm sorry for misattributing some of my points, the Deviantart Critique rating system isn't very clear.

Anyways, I really really like this.

This is just awesome. It has 6 legs, and yet it feels so natural.

Nice. I wonder how a six legged horse would compare to a 4 legged one?

they're more or less the same - my instructor said, make a 4 legged walk then add another set of legs out of sync with the other pairs
