brief bone tool in CS6

Photoshop face

Make body with line tool and fill it, double click and make movie clip

Same with arm but bend the top line

Alt click and drag the arm to make part 2 of the arm and then make a hand and make that a movie clip

Alt click the top part of the arm and drag it across to the other side and then horizontal flip it

Create both arms

Do same with legs

Get bone tool and start from neck to the arm and make the bones by dragging from the ‘bottom’ of each tail on each bone down the arm

Click on ‘top’ on arm bones and tick the ‘constrain’ box and change the min and max movement to -90 and 90 on each arm bone

Make head (on its own layer) a movie clip and drag the bone tool from neck up to bottom of the head

On new layer make a ball above the head and make it a button. While inside the ball drag the up instance to the hit instance and it will turn invisible the drag the top of the head bone to the ball

Repeat steps for other arm and for each arm have an invisible button

Drag down two bones to legs and repeat steps in arms

For lower legs make the max+ only up to 45

Arrange legs and arms with ‘send to back’ and ‘bring forward’ to tidy it up a bit

Add frames to the timeline for the bones and make different positions for an animation
