Turning a stick. Giving him the spinning effect and stuff like that. Im having alot of trouble with it. I am trying to get better by practicing and practicing but im making little to no progress.(And by practicing i mean sitting infront of flash for 6 hours.) Is their a tutorial or a video of someone doing a step by step animation of sticks doing a spinning kick or spinning flip. This is the biggest problem i have right now in animations and the way i want my style to be incorporates alot of movement like that.
Thanks for reading and please help ^^

A good example of what im talking about would be something along the lines of oxobs avatar. How its dancing like that and turns.

NOT THE RIGHT PLACE to ask for help, look though the tutorials section

But... this is the only forum that says General Help & Resources. Where should i go instead? Oh and i checked the tutorials didn't find anything in this department.


General Help & Resources:
"Ask questions you have about anything here! Need something? Take a look here, we might just have what you need. Whether it be a how-to question solved or some sound FX for your latest project."

M&M
Its in the right section, if this thread is in tutorials section a mod will probably move it to here. -.-"

It might help if you post an example, so we can see what you're doing wrong.

Oh! ok ill make one rly quick


EDIT: Wait! i think i might have figures somthing out! I lost track of the legs motion when i do them both together, but when draw one at a time it so much easier. Im going to try this technique out, ill post on here if i have more trouble.


Here is a little of my nxt animation. The spin is my attempt with the technique i posted above.
