    Hi,

    Does anybody have any suggestions as to the best way to warp an illustration of a thumb and index finger pinched together to rub back and forth in opposing directions like the hand is sprinkling something. A jpeg and or a project sample would be a huge help. I have traced the fingers and also just placed simple bone like to and from vectors on the layer, but am still not getting good results with distortion and choppy movements. Seems like this should be easy, but maybe I’m asking too much of the plugin.

    Pete already answered you via email but for the others, as your material is flat shaded,
    What you need it to do is separate out the index finger and the thumb onto separate elements (each with and appropriate alpha channel) and warp them separately. If you do this, you should be able to do what you want fairly easily.
