How do you idle?

I foolishly left this animation to do last... Thinking it would be simple, but have you ever thought about how to actively be idle? It doesn't really make sense so I remembered back to some old Playstation 2 games I used to play and thought about what happened when I just didn't input anything. Most of the time they just look around, very rarely do they do literally nothing and freeze entirely.

Usually they do something that is related to their character but considering my character doesn't exactly have any lore or story written about him, he doesn't have much of a personality. With that in mind I decided to just keep it simple and have his hands on his hips and to sway from side to side, along with raising one arm to cover his eyes from the sun so he can look out into the distance. With my character being superhero themed it's safe to assume that this is

There isn't really that much else to say but having this be my last animation I can get down to editing a video to showcase my animations, write up my bibliography and think about the post mortem of my project.

I can think about what I've learned and reflect on how things have gone.

Below is a video of my idle animation:
