Wheelchair Character - Now with "Walk" Cycle

[Redwall]

Heh, maybe he needs hubcaps... I'll see what I can do to fix the problem.

The only problem is that the wheels are going around the wrong way. Or is he meant to be going backwards?

[Peter Thomas]

I think to make the wheel motion more realistic, leave out every second spoke. If you look at a real wheelchair, you'll see they have far less spokes than you've put in. That will give you more room to cycle them around the circumference of the wheel.

Eh? They're not going the wrong way.]

[Redwall]

At last! The wheels appear to move! Peter Thomas, you're a genius. Except that most wheelchairs do have a crap load of spokes... but some don't. Like Kyojo's new one. Yay.

The direction of the wheels is really just perception, for a while I got myself to see it going backwards as well. But I think most people see it as going forwards.

[Haddas]

Moonwalk, errr... Wheel

[Redwall]

way better
i didn't notice the wheels going backwards in this one
even tough i stared at it for quite a while
crap....
are there ways for moving it forward on the board???
It still looks nice tough

Ah! How did you know about Kyojo's victory dance?!
I'm working on a front view now. Well, not now, but I will eventually...

[Al_Ninio]

Looks real nice, glad you sorted the wheel problem out.
BUT.
The front wheel (small one) seems to be moving in a different speed to the bigger wheel.
And, aren't the arm rests a bit too high?
I mean, they are now basically armpit rests...

[Mephistophilis]

Should you not be able to see his other hand when he's pushing the Wheels?
