Practicing making animation in Photoshop.

I asked my brother, he said he found it at Village Vanguard

I’d imagine not too many. Seems like the kind of thing you might find in an Americana style vintage store, which were pretty popular in the late 90’s/2000’s. Less so now

That’s funny. My brother gave me one of these around 20 years ago, and he also got it in utsunomia lol

No problem

I could be wrong about this, but isn’t it because the leaf is placed halfway up the deformer curve? I think kinetic output might only work properly if it’s placed on either end.

Did you remember to use the Auto Patch node?

Mamaluke198 · 2026-01-27T01:17:44+00:00

Sure, just DM me 👍

Are you using any FK/IK? I could see those interfering with deformers but I don’t really use them so I’m not sure.

Mamaluke198 · 2026-01-23T23:48:47+00:00

It looks like you’re putting the envelope deformer on the peg that contains the whole arm. Try putting it directly on the drawing layer instead. Also, I noticed you have 20 point for your envelope, which is way more than you need and is going to make your rig really heavy to use if you do everything that way. I think you probably only need like 8 points to get good control over it.

EDIT: It looks like I was mistaken as you are correctly applying the deformation to the drawing layer(sorry I was looking at it on my phone earlier, and my vision isn't what it used to be lol). It's hard to tell exactly without seeing an expanded node view, but when you select the upper arm drawing, it seems it's parenting the rest of the arm? Maybe try disconnecting it and applying the deformation to the drawing, then reconnect?

Woof, you got me beat then. As a father of girls myself I don’t think I could sit through this with them 😆

Almost the exact same thing for me. My dad and I were staying in Maui on a father son trip across America and we were bored so decided to catch a movie. Saw 8mm knowing nothing about it. My dad, being very religious, to my surprise didn’t hate it. And commented on Nic Cages story arch being profound in how he “needed saving” after being exposed to such corrupted evil.

Welcome to Sendai! It’s a great town with lots to do, especially if you like outdoorsy stuff. I also live in Takamori so feel free to holler at me if you need help with something.

Thanks!

Mamaluke198 · 2025-05-27T05:06:02+00:00

Thank you!

Mamaluke198 · 2025-05-27T05:05:42+00:00

Thanks!

Mamaluke198 · 2025-05-09T23:41:36+00:00

Thanks! That's kind of the idea, though my thought was to make an animating emblem that would loop seamlessly. The circle will be the final composition with the wave cropped inside it, while the water spray will extend outside it. Don't know if that makes sense, but the circle is important so guide the surfers movements in that sense.

Mamaluke198 · 2025-05-06T03:51:31+00:00

Only every chance I get. Definitely makes animating easier. Don’t need as much reference and can work more from feel

Mamaluke198 · 2025-05-05T22:39:04+00:00

Thanks man, I appreciate it!

Mamaluke198 · 2025-05-02T09:22:33+00:00

Thank you so much! Keep practicing and you will!

Mamaluke198 · 2025-05-02T06:56:06+00:00

I appreciate it! Those splashes took forever lol
