I'm by now pretty much done blocking out the animation. I just need to adjust the key poses and the timing before going on with the rough animation. I will most likely have to adjust the timing further as I progress through the rough as I can never seem to get the initial timing right... Need some practice on that.
The way I created the block animation was I moved the rig into the selected key poses at every 5 frames and then later spaced the poses apart, trying the best I could to get the right timing between the poses. Blocking was all done with step keys which will later be changed to auto keys and adjusted upon starting on the rough.
