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. ------------- http://pixelmonkey.ensellitis.com">

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? ------------- http://sj-gfx.com">

First frame is lookign great, but what exactly is it transforming into? -------------

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. :) ------------- |
