How to animate FLIGHT

Animating flight can be a bit tricky if aren’t yet comfortable with drawing wings at different positions and in 3 dimensions, but giving it a try is at the same time really good practice for that, probably the best you can get.

Also, an extra tip from someone who is chronically addicted to drawing dragons, birds and other winged things:
Look at skeletons!!! I HIGHLY suggest looking at the anatomy of a bird, pteranodon, or bat wing. It’ll help give you a sense of how the bones move and position themselves; this is useful not only for animating flight, but also for other actions! You can watch videos, look up bone and muscle examples on google, or even look at your own hand (birds essentially have a feathered arm as their wing, just with a longer wrist)! Of course, it’s not like your screen will explode if you don’t do this or anything, but if you want that extra detail, then go for it!

Even if it was an accident, the carrot example was so bloody helpful 😭🙏

btw in flying side view the wings should atually move more like in a circular motion instead of just flapping up and down

I have this absolutely adorable little creature. Literally a bunny, thats more circular and fluffier. I was thinking of giving them wings, and after watching this, I think I will! Instead of landing on their hind legs though, I can imagine when they land, they land on their front legs and because of the momentum they kind of run for a moment before stopping. Sometimes, probably most of the time cause their found in forests, they'll hit a wall and kind of bounce off of it.

Love your art! Great job. I hope to see more tutorials in the future. I would like to see one about how you paint your artwork. It looks SO GOOD! And I'd love to see how you do it!

THANKYOU

Something that helps me animate wings is looking in a mirror and moving my arm in a figure eight motion. The wrist of the wing is what moves the primary feathers, so I look at where my fingers are angled to see where the primary feathers would be. The movement is the same that a bird in flight seems to do. It’s an easy way to get a reference if you don’t want to scavenge for good videos of birds flying (:
If you do this, remember to make your figure eight skinny and tilted sideways because that’s more accurate to how wings are moved
