Idle Animation

So yeah, characters that are static when Idle look lame. Due to this, I decided to make an Idle animation for the fox. Here is my little development:

This was my first attempt. I really struggled with understanding what movement you do when you are just still breathing. I tried a little chest and shoulders movement, but it still looks static and lame.

Then after that I went for forearms, arms , shoulders and after playing around with it I started getting somewhere. I also added a little blink as a nice touch :) However, I still thought there was something off. And I figured it out! The head wasn't moving.
