Lucky WIP - Concept Sketch

I don't know how to animate, so I figured the best way to learn is just to do it. This is a concept sketch for the character I want to learn with. I designed his structure to be similar to that of a human so that whatever I learn from animating Lucky, I can apply elsewhere.

The goal is to import this guy into Character Animator CC but to design animations that can be triggered via a MIDI keyboard. I'm way out of my league, but I'm figuring out slowly.
