ok im at a very old computer right now, where paint cant save png's... Yeah imageShack does that for me :)

But I accidently also saved is as a gif.. and a paint gif removes the colors, and puts on the standard paint gif colors... and this is the result :)

PM from Tremulant for all you alls:

"For some reason I'm having wuite a time logging on to the forums, so I thought I'd just tell you and have you pass on the good word, if it's no trouble.

So yeah, I'd say animations are not only ok, but encouraged. So if people want to get their stuff moving, more power to 'em."

Thanks for the comments, all. Just getting back into the swing of things here.

Binoculars. But, you're right; that's not immediately obvious.
I may end up altering those a bit, but I think I may just leave it up to the viewer's imagination. I dunno.

Anyway, here's an update:


I didn't realize I'd only used 15 colors, so I AA'd the shadow a bit. I also moved the cockpit back as it had the appearance that the alien was searching his backseat for old french fries.


@Adam: love the idea and the animation.
@9_6: I'm jealous.
@Sausage: Really cool tone and lighting.
@Microradiation: I'm gonna go ahead and assume that the green thing is a pet! :P Cool use of a cutaway. Like the monkey-like creature hanging from the ceiling. Look forward to seeing the crew.
@Ensellitis: I like the second. Shouldn't the ship have a dent, tho?
@Setzer: Cool portrait.

That ship seems awfully familiar to ceddo's....    which is a nice ship btw.
But i'd advise changing the black lines to dark brown.

Also,  please could someone Show me an example using 1 frame on how to make the beam better?

I see.That edit is pretty nice, actually o_o I'll try to get something in between(holy hell  could never spell this word >_<") the two kinds of tones.And thanks for liking the creature design =)

@jalonso: you  mean it as in "understanding what is that captain" or in "actually seeing that the blue guy is the captain"? Think it would be any easier if it had a neck and shoulders?
