I really thought I was going to have to do a lot more work than that to get this kind of action, this nice rotary action that really feels like a big, powerful character. So let's take a look at the drawings. You might find that this kind of timing reference could be useful to you. So effectively, on 24 frames per second was the frame width that I used. So if you're working on 30 or a different frame rate, you've got to adjust these numbers slightly. Just add a little number here and there. So we have number one and he cycles back into number one.
