So I'm going to try and enter the challenge this week.

I'm changing lady Liberty here into a fighting machine.



What's going to happen is her torch is going to change into a fireball, her arm's going to pull back for a launch and her concrete slab is going to change into some clips. :D

Right now I'm working on the arm movement... but I'm not sure I'm doing it right AT ALL. I made a go of it and slowed down the animaton



Now... to me it just looks like her arm is just shrinking. Maybe it's because of the lack of shading? Or is it because I suck. XD I'm thinking maybe I should move the foot on the left.

heeelp. :P

EDIT: Thanks to Frankie's suggestions, I've improved on my arm movement.



Now with the missile change:

And now with robe movement:

Thoughts?

At this point there isn't too much to say, but when the arm is blue it looks longer than when it's black or red. Good luck with this piece.

RPG is numberwang.

I don't think it'll turn into anything. I haven't got any ideas for that... do you?

This is a cool idea. If I were you I'd probably think about doing the key frames of the whole animation first and then do the in-betweens.

mm, well these are basically the key frames thus far. I haven't even begun doing the change from torch to fireball and her face changes. I'm hoping to have the actual moving time in 3 frames or less.

Something's wrong with me. Every time I shade this, it sucks terribly.



BAAAAHHH.

I added a darker shade and changed the lightest, and tried to highlight the folds along the edges. its pretty rough but maybe it helps?

P.S. If anyone knows how to make the pink transparent, let me know. :P

The body is transforming into a tank-like figure. The concrete slab is transforming into a missile. And a fireball is forming in the hand. Also, subtly the face looks meaner and the points in the crown turn into guns.

Anyone know how to make the pink transparent? I tried getting rid of it in frames but this happens:



help?

EDIT: NM I found it out. (Thanks Rodder)



I was going to do extra frames but... I think I'm done with this now. :)
