Page out of the Animator’s Survival guide, by Richard Williams

My teachers praise this heavy book to high heaven, and most of our exercises come from it.

This one is featuring a walk cycle. A normal animated walk cycle uses 4 distinct poses, with another 4 in-betweens.

If you are considering animation, you cant go wrong with this book

Ray Frenden reviews the too-cheap-to-be-true Monoprice graphics tablets. How do they stack up to industry standard Wacoms?

After spending a week with the 6.25“x10” Monoprice, my Yiynova and Cintiq remain unplugged and I gave my Intuos away to a friend. The Monoprice tracks subtle pressure variances and small movements with less lag and more crisp fidelity than any of the others. It is, put crudely, fucking awesome, in both OSX Lion and Windows 7 x64.

Duly fuckin’ noted.

I’ve had my $80, 3.5x5” gaphire 4 for 5 years now, and have been absolutely dreading the day it finally kicks the bucket. (Yes, every digital piece I’ve ever drawn has been on a live area the size of a postcard.)

I am so getting one of these when this thing dies. Or maybe when the stylus dies… thing’s hanging on by a thread. (Let’s just say it’s been without a grip or buttons for I don’t know how many years now.)

Yay for companies not having a veritable monopoly on the market.

I have one of these, 10x6.5 I bought about two months ago for 48 bucks. It’s a billion times better than my old Wacom Bamboo and works like a fuckin dream.

wow I may have to invest in one of these dang

I’ll keep this saved just in case…

ATTENTION ALL PENNY-PINCHING ART FRIENDS!!!

Alright. Just got my new one of these beauties in the mail. It’s almost twice as big as my old tablet, at half the price. (and that’s Including shipping and other delivery fees.)

First impressions, it’s huge, but sturdy, and still works when I rest it on my lap instead of a flat surface (something my Bamboo failed spectacularly at). Works pretty good too. The only major issue is that if I switch to using a mouse, then back to the tablet, the sensitivity settings get wiped and wont reset until I unplug and replug the tablet. That’s a bit of a headache, but if you’re already used to using a tablet for surfing and clicking it shouldn’t be a problem at all.

If any long term issues arise I’ll address them then but so far, pretty spiffy. :)

I’ve had my monoprice for several months now; I use it like a fiend and the batteries I put in the pen in august are still running strong. It runs wonderfully on my mac and I love this thing to bits. I now use it more than my old-ass intuos 4. HIGHLY recommend it, especially for a first tablet.

A friend asked how I do this thing, so I decided to make a tutorial for it! FYI, this is Photoshop CS5. Hope it helps in some way! If there’s anything that completely confuses you, don’t hesitate to ask me. :)

Here is a fullsize version.

(This font’s exclamation point looks too much like an “L,” so I apologize for sounding too excited in my tutorial.)
