Little Poser Fairy

This is a cute little poser fairy that I snagged from

Outlaw by design

I appreciate the use of this charming little fairy

So many people make these poser dolls and are so generous to share them with us

Ok, This is a real easy tut but has 20 frames, which you don't have to deal with in the layer palette.

...........................

Let's get started

Fairy supplies

Open your fairy in PSP...open the font and shrink it to task bar....open the wings in animation shop

This is where all the layers take place

Add a new layer....with your text tool...size set at 72.... font set at Samrakan Oblique floating and antalias checked... fill set at your choice and stroke set at your choice..., I just used the eye dropper and chose a color from the fairies dress

Type your name...now my name has t &h sticking up so I am going to use the selection tool and select these 2 letters and delete them... if you have letters sticking up do the same...select none...

selections...select all...selections...float...now add eye candy glass with these settings

Now for a little drop shadow on the text..

In the layer palette drag the text under the fairy and place it so she is sitting on it....you may have to use the de form tool to bring the text down further to be able to read it.....layers>merge visible...save as

That's all for here

..............................

Open animation shop...open your fairy.....you should have the wings there already....

Click on the wings to make them active...click on effects...insert image effect.... click the drop down box for compress...use these settings

Delete wing 11

Shrink the wings and open a new canvas....500x500....duplicate this image 9 times for a total of 10

This is a little tricky...click on the wings...edit...select all... edit...copy....now click on the white canvas...edit ...select all... edit...paste into selected frames...now before you let go of the mouse... place the wings close to the top where you think they shoudl be...about 1/3 of the way down from the top...

When you have them placed...click on the fairy then click on the propagate

Click on the fairy...edit...copy...click on the frames...edit...select all.... and edit...paste into selected frames... now very carefully place her on the wings...if you misjudged the wings just click your undo button and start over...while all frames are selected...animation re size and I took mine to 300....now she looks pretty good like that but we need the wings to come back...not jump back....edit...selct all...edit...copy... right click on the last frame ...edit paste after current frame....now while they are all selected go to animation ...reverse frames..click on animation... frame properties set at 20....... This will give us less frames and still have a good flow

Let's make it even smaller...click the crop tool...click options.... click on surround opaque area...click ok

Check you animation and if you are satisfied just save her..

Now that was easy

Thanks for doing my tut and visiting my site
