First steps

Just over 20 frames long I've got part of my first scene. I'm concerned how long it's taking me, considering it's taken days already to get this far, so I've had a word with Michael and I'm going to cut out the background from now on and add it in later, and just work on the moving parts. As I was using the lightbox for the first time I felt like I was struggling or doing it wrong somehow, as simple as it may sound to just continually trace, and I didn't fully understand the walk cycle till the second step so it's been a slow process and a huge learning curve so far.
