Re: Aikido and Judo, probably already done but,
If you want to see the principles behind judo (and for that matter most martial arts) look at the forms of five the itsutsu no kata. When I originally watched it being demonstrated by my aikido sensei (whom happens to be 7th dan judo and a Kodokan kata teacher and examiner) I thought it was aikido as it was so graceful.
You should bear in mind many of the Kodokan judoka were encouraged to learn aikido Jigoro Kano is reported to have said of aikido "That is real budo".
Have a look at youtube and the judo sites.
