THIS WAS DONE ON 18 FPS

This is a very simple 10 frame punch

First thing to do is to get your figure into a fighting stance


Now you want to have the figure begin to lean forward, move the punching arm back slightly from the fighting stance, and move the non punching arm slightly forward


Begin the cross motion the legs do when they are walking, and have the punching arm slightly folded over itself, and move the non punching arm forward a little


Have the crossing leg move forward a little faster, and have the punching arm fold over itself completely, leave the non punching arm the same


Leave both arms the same, and move the stepping leg forward to where it close to touching the shin of the other leg


Move the punching arm's elbow 180 degrees, but leave it folded. Pull the non punching arm's elbow closer to the torso, move the stepping leg to where it is almost touching the ground, and have the knee's distance about the length of the figure's thigh


Fully extend the punching arm, and move the second arm to where the elbow is slightly behind the back, have the stepping leg make contact with the ground


THIS PART IS OPTIONAL

Ease the figure forward for the next 3 frames to soften the landing


This is what it will look like when finished


Hope this helped =)

That punch is very slow and there isn't much easing on the punching arm.

I suggest looking at the Firecracker and Senzo tutorials on TheDarkDemon if you want to learn how to throw a good ol' punch.



I hope you didn't think that just because you animated a punch somewhat well that you thought it needed a tutorial?
