Description
You could say this run cycle is... shitty.
Poopy Knight FTW!This is just one piece of a little project I'm wanting to put together of this guy sometime. I made this using a combo of Flash/Photoshop video layers.

can i ask you what you mean by Photoshop video layers?

Did you know Photoshop has a timeline? (in the 'window' menu) Allowing you to add keyframes to layers. Video layers (Layer>Video Layers) behave and can be treated exactly the same as regular layers but can be 'scrubbed' through with the timeline. If you are familiar with any kind of animation/video editing software - it is just like that.
Video layers are blank on each new frame of the timeline - and regular layers are always visible through the timeline.
So those Video Layers + regular Layers x everything photoshop can do = SUPER POSSIBILITIES!!! ^^
This animation is a really simple application of it, but you really could do anything. Have a mess around with 'em man

Oh yeah I just remembered. PS's timeline defaults to 30fps. Make sure to change it before you start, or it will f* you up. (unless you want to work in 30fps)
catches me out sometimes

Didn't knights used to poop in their armor because it took too long to take off?

O_o that was actually a thing? Well I guess now we know how he got his name.

Indeed. One of the jobs if a squire was to wash out the armor of the knights they worked for.
