Description Call me stupid but I can't figure out how to make it playable online XD ssssoooo you'll have to download it. Sorry! *help wanted!*

I've animated a my cave lion Abeo in a runcycle and I'm gonna show you how I did it :3 Call it a tutorial if you want, I did in the video... xD
Includes tips to how to make nice-looking smooth animations as easy and fast as possible without using tweening and result in looking all crappy, cheap and "AdventureQuest"-ish..... xD I use the programs Adobe Flash CS3 and Adobe Photoshop CS3.

Please watch the whole thing to see the final animation!
Time taken:
Part 1-3 took about 3 hours
Part 3-6 I think took 4-5 hours...
making the music took 2 hours
and editing the videos and all, two days, 10 hours or so... god damn it I hate iMovie... Better than windows movie maker though, MWUHaha! xD

You'll probably want to turn off the volume after a few seconds, the song I made is really annoying... XD

I would greatly appreciate any comment, and as much critique as possible!

My next video will probably be some runcycle or something lame, as I'm making a game :3 Maybe I'll make an opening-video or something... hmmm...

Bwaahaa, why does the quality suck so much in the end?? O_o

A very neat little tutorial- everything looks very simple, yet also pretty fiddly and time consuming. Still, that seems like the stuff that practice would help with. It's great to see something right from the bare bones (literally, in this case) through to the final product.
