Well.. copying the animations from a dog should be fine. I'm saying it should be the same for any tetrapod; They should all bend their tarsus joint "backwards". Horses, dogs, cats, etc. are all the same (even humans though our tarsus bone is small and rarely animated).

I gotta say, the running looks funny. I've got to give some critisicm;

Most importantly, you bent the "knees" (tarsus) on the wrong direction. I noticed you did the same for the Benny dog where it is sitting.

Compared to humans, dogs are actually standing on their toes, and the first joint above ground i the heel joint, and right next to the body is the knee, which connects to the hip somewhere around the tail.

 

For reference of femur and tarsus:

For some more subtle things:

You should raise the scapula/shoulder and pelvis bone, they are placed rather strangely right now.

It running also looks a bit robotic, try letting the feet come in almost underneith.

The reference photos were non-free and it would take me at least several hours to tweak up the texture to perfection so its not really some small part left out. Texturing takes way longer than modeling for me. Others are welcome to texture it.

djonvincent.

That is why i wrote that there was no texture included since it was just a 5 minute test.

Hi Stefan.

I already made a wolf model (it's here on opengameart), and you can find a sheep, chicken, pig, goat in 0AD (CC-BY-SA license i think). There is a bear as well, but I think it needs to be remade.

I think for such a game as Flare, you wouldn't want a poodle summon so i think the dog could just be a different texture for the wolf model.

I'll look at maybe making a bear if I can find some good reference material.

It naturally means you can pick whatever you want, just like any other copyrighted object with multiple licenses.
