Been experimenting with Vellum distance constraints using them as muscles and bones.
Driving them with phased sine waves can be quite fun:

Here is the constraint network:
The gray and green constraints are rather stiff and maintain structure. the magenta ones pull and push to create motion.
I also experiment with friction so that the "toes" have high friction in their planting cycle and low when lifting.

haha that died the compression death...

The downside with this setup is that it took a bit of work to build all the constraints manually. Mostly via vex.
Upside is that it simulates close to realtime since it is so few constraints needed.

I will share the hip but I need to clean out the stuff that is not relevant. Lots of disordered dead end tests all over. Mesh model goes away too.
It is a bit like sodaconstructor (RIP) but in 3D.
