This Photoshop tutorial will show you how to draw a 3dStars and then animate them spinning in Image Ready. You can see the result in the image below.
   
Step 1.
Create a new photoshop document, with dimensions of 120 Width by 90 height and a dark grey (757575) background. We're going to create 3 different sized spinning star, each with 4 frames. First of all we'll create the 4 frames of the large star and then we'll duplicate it twice and scale them down. So, zoom in to 300% and create a light grey (B9B9B9) rectangle, on a new layer called frame A inside a new layer set called "star1". create a lighter and shorter grey (CDCDCD) rectangle, just below it and on a new layer. Create another one below it, the same size as the previous one, but this time make it darker (8F9496) than the other 2.

Step 2.
Duplicate the 1st one, place it below the 3rd one and then merge the 4 layers into 1. So now that you've created frame A of star 1, go to <Part 2> of this Photoshop tutorial.
