Hey, it's all up to the interpretation of the viewer.  So if you gotta cheat a little to give a little thrill while conserving a little time with a shortcut here or there, there's nothing wrong with that.  As long as you enjoy it! 

Thanks! Although this is pretty low res so it's like cheating a bit  . I hope I can upload some more stuff soon!

Boi-oi-oi-oi-oi-oi-oi-oi-oi-oing!  . I love the recoil when the spring releases.  Nice use of pallett to allo the shadow getting darker as the spring reloads, too.  Can't wait to see what else you have in store for PJ.com!
