So I was thinking.

Some of you might know me as an animator, but I've been watching a few pic feds lately and kind of been getting motivated to start a federation myself.


I have a few ideas for feuds and matches, and this could make me also a better animator by improving the way I move the figures joints.


So, you guys think I should do it?

This should go in the Pic Fed Extra's board bro, its ok as you are new, you will get used to it.

Yeh, I think you should defo start a few bro, it is no where as easy as some people make it out to be sometimes, you need a great deal of patience and determination as well as motivation to make a fed the best it can be. Best way I get motivation is by watching alot of Pic Feds. I watch alot of Ratedcds, Harrison (cena0224), Mike (Highfligher329) and many other great feds that motivate me tons. Skype me if you want links to ma favourite ever shows. The best thing to do is make sure u have a plan for the future with rivalries and where it all will be going, and make sure your storytelling is bang on. Also focus on each individual pose. I used to rush poses and make them, stiff or not looking right. Pic fedding takes time to perfect so make sure every picture has every joint moved in it so it looks realistic.

So yeah, I would say go for it. Make a debut show, get your pic fed out there and just build. Post all your match cards and build in the build/match card thread and feel free to ask me or in fact anyone else on the board for help especially all the admins who have great knowledge on pic fedding.

Good Luck.

Thanks Jack!!

I've watched RatedCDS and Cena02204 for the past couple of days, also Triple123C. I'm gonna make a logo, think of a name, and maybe set up a match card.


Sorry about posting this in the wrong board BTW.


I decided that JPF would be a good name, it stands for Jonathan's *my name :3* Pic feds.

To keep motivated, watch a match by a top fed that is similar to the one you are currently making. E.g I'm currently making a 6 on 6 extreme tornado tag match, so I've seen EWF Summerslam 2011 SES vs Un-Americans a few times. Don't copy things from the match, just think "your end product could look like this". If you're doing a street fight, watch WCFW Armageddon 2012 JTM vs Orton. That's just a few examples.

That sounds good man, thanks for the advice.

I've decided considering these may just only take a few hours for me to make I'll make two nights. You guys will see a match card soon.

Fuck you JDP! Welcome.

Cool man, Ive seen some of your animations there great. Pic Fed is a whole other ball game. Basically what Jack and ROB have already said but also, what alot of people really dont seem to pay attention to is there phycology in the matches and the presentation. Stages are important which by watching Mikes (Highflyers) fed you can see that he does focus on Stages and that little bit of extra makes his fed that more presentable and just looks like a serious and badass company. Phycology is also very important because some people dont take the time to really think about the moves and sequences that happen during there match. Dont just do random move after random move, until the finish spot. I used to do that but after I actually started thinking about each spot and thinking about how to make this match great from top to bottom my fed has been alot better. Cant wait to see what you do with JPF

Thanks man, got more motivated to start doing some of it.
