Myomation. Cool sensation...

Que Passa!!!!

They just keep getting bigger and longer...

My animations, that is. THIS is the first time I've animated almost everything on the body above the waist.

Myo teaches Kung Fu.
This is an actual Kung Fu stance I learned myself called the Windmill stance. Myo does it far better then I ever could though. I got inspired by an art trade drawing of Myo kung fu fighting(In anime style too, which was kind of wierd to see), and desided what the heck. Sorry about the framerate, but I was using a free trial gif animator demo which wouldn't allow framerate adjustment unless you payed for the full version... It's getting harder and harder to be a moocher these days.

Hey, that's cool. Too bad the framerate is slow, though.

If you ever got Paint Shop Pro, it comes with a free, spiffy GIF animator called Animation Shop. There is also probably some other GIF animation programs out there that aren't quite as evil.

Ooo. Nice indeed. Smooth animation besides the framerate, but that can easily be blamed on GIF itself. Excellent pose.

I'd ASSUME there'd be a freeware or open-source animated GIF or MNG creator somewhere out there (Last I checked, I'm not sure if GIMP does animated GIFs).

Myo NOW moves at the speed of a real person doing the stance. He's faster.

If you're using a mouse and not using color, a good program to use is EasyToon. It's available at http://www.radiumsoftware.com/ (I don't own this site, I'm the foxmage.com guy. Wrong Radium.)

Hey, cool. Microsoft GIF animator does well. It is free, too. Just a tad bit confusing to use, but it gets the job done, and it becomes more understandable when you use it a bit.

Just search for "Microsoft GIF Animator" at Google.com and you'll find it ok.

Nice animation . I'd try to do animation, but I'd be too picky and want to give it a 12fps frame rate, and I don't draw things the same over and over again, well... oh, actually I do have an animation, but it would go in the mature desc. forum at Noogy's. (The jackal lady isn't wearing a shirt. Not x rated, but possibly offensive.)... and there is.. well, ok, I do have a couple animations. Maybe I can search for them all later. One is located on my cousin's old computer, and I hope he still has it.

I like the way you can draw your characters from different angles Always a good thing for animation . It is really great to see your cool characters in motion

@Hare: Yeah, I know, I used to use Gif Animator all the time. The (only) advantage to EasyToon is that you can draw the frames in the program and it draws the last frame transparently behind the current one. A lot like using one of those lighted table things.

Actually, there is ONE character I can't draw at too many angles:
Weasel(And, in that effect, Jorwell and Quizz as well.). I have no set idea on how to draw his head facing the camera. In my mind's eye his head is a cone shape, so it should logically be somewhat circular, but whenever I draw him like that, he doesn't look like Weasel anymore. I have to have it at a slight angle before he looks like his old self again.
