@sausage: thanks for the feedback. I might consider making the BG lighter. Stars and planets are sheduled.
 
As for the beam, I'm not sure if these help, but here are some quick edits:
Middle one is your original. To te left is what Lollige mentioned. You used three dithered colors without transition. To the right is one with a different gradient, and on the bottom..., well you should try to go crazy and experiment.
 
Edit:
Meanwhile I shaded the first frame, only 24 to go!

Ensellitis, I didn't see the dent you already had in the upper ship. Sorry!

Ceddo: Yowza! Nice shading. :)

Adam: You might be able to get more motion when you put the stars moving past. Also, you could have the train moving left-right in a cycle as well maybe.

This was my attempt. I don't particularly care for it but I had a lot of fun using ridiculous colors. Still room for 4 more but, things got so out of hand I forgot what I was doing. Haha!

Anyways, I might try a different one, or I might not.

well there is nothing in this drawing that looks like something from commander keen.. so you shouldnt put a commander keen guy in I think...

take a look at Gas13's alien.. there is a ship, and an alien in the corner... try something like that too :) (and a bit more detailed than this one.. you have some colors left isnt it?

I'm working on making it look good well done while keeping the colors down. I think I may animate the truck moving down the highway into the distance and repeating that if I have time.

This isn't too offensive is it?

I don't think that this qualifies because the contest clearly says space craft and it's crew/ captain. And I think it may be offensive to mexican PJ members, by common sense.

Sausage, how about adding blue light to your alien, (lightsource coming from behind). He can have the light  each time the beam of the ship appears, that will give the idea of the beam being powerful too



Just a quick edit to show you what I mean.

You can try adding some highlight to the ship too

As for the art having a "SPACE" ship in it, I can let that be arguable....so I guess I'm gonna have to take that truck into space ;)

As for it being offensive, there's a lot of stuff everywhere that's offensive to everyone. If someone can't handle a harmless joke here, then their problems are going to be far worse once they exit this fine community.

anyways, I'll still prepare something good and that'll fit the requirements.

Bruce: the challenge is stated clearly and concisely. Alongside it not up to par to be approved to the gallery because of it's lack of any relevance to the challenge, it lacks effort and and flow to the animation and art in general. I've got a good sense of humour and I don't think this falls into that category.

You should really start using these challenges to improve your art and not to improve your status as a douche.

to be honest, i do not see the use of the beam... mean... it's just a beam in the middle of the space... you could turn that into a track beam and lift a cow or two from the earth with it. it's just an idea sausage.
