Title: Animating problem
Post by: Regularmii on July 12, 2016, 11:39:33 am

Hello , my name is Sebastian , and i am working at a project with one of my freinds. The problem i got is that working to a ninja sprite i wanted to make scarf for him , and i did, but now i want to animate it and i find it very hard. I animated some sprites before but this one is especially hard. If anyone can help me with a tip or some advises everything will be gladly accepted!
Thanks for your attention!

It seems that you are missing the ninja sprite. Please post the image to the board so we can look at it. Also, when you post the image, don't scale it.

I imagine the little guy is going to run. A side view is often the easiest to represent for a running character. With this perspective, the scarf is easy to animate as a trailing ribbon which has a waving motion.
Here are examples :
