My first real attempt at character animation.
Im by no means an animator at all so this was kind of a trial by fire for me, I very quickly learned that if you shade the knight like I have you cant flip the knight for a left run without the lighting looking all kinds of weird. There is a left run that I worked up with the correct lighting but it was so similar to the janky right run here I left it off

Not too bad! The one thing I noticed was your colors are probably more than you need. Check out the image spec checker here. Looking closely you can see several colors that are very similar. If you consolidated those into one you could not only keep your count down from unneeded color, but possibly make it look a little cleaner.
You did really good for beginning animation! Simple is always good to begin with. I'm sure with your creative concepts you'll be a master of animation in no time.
. I can't wait to see what you animate next.
