Frame Number

| = Different frames

Onion Skin

Notice how i start my movement Slowly With The First 2 - 3 Frames This is how you get an Eased Punch

I started Slow and then on teh 3rd frame i started to get quicker. Notice?

That applys this Motion to The animation.

Okay Moving on. Towards the End of the punch you are going to need to double frame the actual hit. This Makes it so the viewers can actually see the punch and the impact. otherwise it jsut looks like the stick is throwing his arms around like a ****ing clown. Frame 8-9 Should have the extended arm double framed. I have Made frame 10 int he same pose too becuase i have only made one single punch. i have had made a combo i would have made teh extended arm mvoe down a little. To prepare for the next punch.

Notice that on frame 8 the ground actually Moves down. This is to increase impact. The ground moves down and the stick figure moves down aswell.
Frame 9 is moves up again.

Notic also how on Frame 8-9-10 I am slowing My movements down. This applies Easing again. Slowing down the movement after a significant hit.

Remember easing is much like this
Key:
| Frame
- Movement

Hi , Good tut are you fuse off the easytoon place?

[Nukem]

helped alot. Very good tut. (tut anim was very good too) Keep it up.

[Gunned.Stick.]

Not very helping.
The back needed to be bended and when he raises his arms he looks he stops.

Also the punch was there for like 10 frames.

[4godsake]

thanks, i've always had trouble making a decent punch that isn't really jittery.

[NeCrOdE]

great tutorial power fuse0. very detailed and it helped me alot as im still learning practicing basic movements.

Not very helping.

the back does bend its just hard to notice (above middle of spine). and if you actually read the tut he says:

Since when did you bend you back when punching.
My style is realistic.
Not cartoony. This is a really good punch. And anyway, his back does lunge forwards, like Necrode said. It is un noticable, but it stops the animation for looking stiff. But in like you hardly do a mechie wave with your back while punching. Plus with combos you can make it look not so stiff.
uppercuts & Kicks ect


Thanks for hte comments guys.

Since when did you bend you back when punching.

I just did a punch. My back bent.


My style is realistic.
Not cartoony.

Not especially, actually.

This is a really good punch.

It could be better.

And anyway, his back does lunge forwards, like Necrode said. It is un noticable, but it stops the animation for looking stiff.

Only a little bit, though.

But in like you hardly do a mechie wave with your back while punching.

Obviously, whatever the hell a mechie wave is. But, you hardly stand upright.

[awsaludares]

im better than that punch but its good though

[luckyjoe]

Very nice animation, it helped me out.

[te6]

ya i always use this punch in my animations lol it helped me very much but its kinda too long lol (10 frames O_o) for example if u made the quick punch version of it itd be much much better

[sizzle]

your tutorial deserves some extra cash clik if interested in money (Free)

[ragingrasengan]

Smooth, but:

- Back is stiff
-the Bended arm is stiff as well


Otherwise excellent tut.

[bluedawn09]

i tried it and its awesome! thx!

[phlum]

Thanks, this was cool, before I could only make uppercuts!
Thanks again :)

[2-D]

Great tutorial I managed to make this

[thechimp]

thanks man, great tut. now i can punch!

[RawGreen]

awesome tut. nice easing, it looks almost like flash.

[snice]

nice but there is an easier way to do a detailed punch in only 3 frames

[Pnuts]

Thanks, it helped. My punches were basically wacky slaps earlier. Effective yes, but slaps shouldn't do the damage they do in my animations.

[Pnuts]

Thanks to my laggy laptop I just double posted. =(

[Arkehy]

Very nice tutorial on punching, it helped me bunches! :}D

[omardude]

[77xett]

Thanks for the tutorial. I prefer making the step longer and the ground jumping on impact. Other than that great smoothing. I know I just joined, but I'm just throwing an opinion.

[branson102396]

[Brainstick]

OMG , this is helping !

[Brainstick]

Gosh truly , check out I've got better

http://pivotup.com/files/dkaozlvg.piv

[Brainstick]

Hey how liutenant can post his pivot animation instant and I'm not ? can anyone tell me ?

[Zed]

Because you uploaded the .piv and didn't follow the instructions which are posted in four different, fairly obvious, places.

[nooob300]

awsome tutorial

[Tob McStick]

Awsome tutorial!

[stickmakerflash]

what kind of stickfigure is that!?!

[littleninja09]

Thank you this really helped. Before this my stick man looked like he was gonna going into a punching fit.

[nostro]

great

salute2

[PivotIke]

lol nice punch i tried those and suck at it lol but ill keep practicing

[Gangsta31]

mabey you should do one on how the person should react when they get punched

[Hopp]

It's shakey and a bit choppy.

[lewis345]

ty so so so much :D

[tosyno]

It is a good tutorial power fuse0, Please how do you upload files easily without that red cross icon where your animation should be and they keep on telling me i need to hasve 20 posts until I can make a thread or post a url, sigh

[tosyno]

Also what is c and c?

[Zed]

C&C, also known as cc, is an abbreviation for "constructive criticism". It means telling you what's wrong with your animation so that it can be fixed.

[zer0gravity]

"otherwise it looks like your stick is throwing his arms around like a ****ing clown"

that made me laugh

[Sorage55]
