	@Fjara Looks good so far :) As for me: Basic draft with 3 extremes I made at school. It's going to be a lizard cyborg thing (so it's both a machine and a living creature; does that count?) named Security Drone X-1200, and it's going to have an automatic minigun on its back that will load on its own (by "rising" up from its back; dunno how else should I put it) and fire shortly after loading, and unload afterwards.

	So many great submissions this week. I hope you all finish them! @ Lapada: Super cool design. But the light source seems a bit inconsistent. In some places, the light seems to be above, in others the light is to the left or to the right. Am I wrong? @ Dr LazerRage: Great work. It does bother me that the character actually gets darker when he fires his gun, but I think you've countered it well by how the flash lights up his glasses, etc. If you were so inclined, you could always make the barrel of the revolver rotate when he fires :) Great recoil effect on the shirt, tail, etc. @ Mino: Cool design. Looks very Ghost in the Shell-ish to me. Maybe the eyes could be 1 pixel wider. @ Fjara: I'm not quite onboard with the blast effect, but otherwise it's a fantastic animation.

	Made with x2 in mind. Since I have no anatomy or animation knowledge, I spent more time striking poses in front of my mirror and learning how to animate a gif than I actually spent spriting this :p. The animation is a bit slow because I wanted to display the different frames. I'd probably animate it a bit faster if I had to use it in a game.
