Adding bones to a man in a photo

Post by writerhoward »

I've imported an image of a man in a Tai Chi stance into a new Moho file. I want to add bones to him, however, no Bone tools are available.

What do I need to do to be able to add bones to my imported person?

You must create a Bone Layer and put your image into it in Layers window, then you'll can add bones into the Bone Layer that will affects to all Image Layers you put inside it, that is the way to work with bones un Moho.

Ramón has given you the basics.

For further information, see tutorial 4.2 and tutorial 4.3.

Note that by default you will only be able to do image warping. To fully animate limbs, etc, you need to break the image up into pieces - see tutorial 4.1.
