    That’s a really good observation Puddles,
    Following on from Tanya’s points,

    You may notice that Stomp is a little different to your human reference,
    Stomp has no body, I mean he’s not lonely, he has friends, of course he does, Rivet and Torque.

    But he is just a head on legs, or you could say he has his face on his hips.
    Then look again, notice the rotation of the hips, I mean Stomps head (Hips on a human reference), the ear on the side of the standing leg is at its highest point and the opposite ear is at its lowest point, and with Stomps head being spherical and not flatter on top like hips, the centre point of the head (hips) is, and should be, lower than the up position.
    The up position is higher because the standing leg is now pushing the Hips, Stomps head, forward and up. And both ears are level because the opposite leg is raised.

    The head on a human doesn’t rotate in this way when we walk, go back to your human reference and try and look only at the hips and ignore the body and head for a comparison.

    Hope this helps!
