An alien portrait I made. This creature's name is Xeph, an organism composed of a water-based gel.

The animation has a few bugs but I think I did a good job with this.

I didn't exactly intend to make a slime-creature. I was going for something more like that bio-devil thing that appears in the Megaman games. It doesn't jiggle but it has kind of a semi-liquid texture. I'll agree with the transparency thing, that could have at least made it look more liquid than solid, and I might try that later, but for now, this is the best I can do with this thing.

I know this thing doesn't look like a jiggling blob like that slime you had shown me, but that wasn't what I was going for. I was looking to go for like a goo-type creature. Making its mouth move was...difficult enough.

Unfortunately this proves that you can't animate organic stuff by moving rigid blocks around. Check for animated slimes such as this one: every frame is just redrawn from scratch. You should really try it since it shouldn't be too difficult with this subject (easier than with a more 'solid' creature anyways!)

Also and before, you might strive for a better transparency.
