I just got a motion computing m1400 that I snagged off ebay for $230. It's not the most powerful computer, but it runs all the apps I need (anime studio, painter essientials and pencil for sketching). With the wacom driver I also get pressure sensitivity so it's almost as good as paper and pencil!

Quick animation I threw together for a Contest:

I did everything except for the beatboxing. Not sure why but everyone keeps saying the little dude looks like a penis LOL

Wow Mikdog, I just saw this music video. Amazing work bro, you've really come a long way with your AS skills!

Thanks dudes! DK- yes I've been a member at geniusrocket for over a year and have won a few- although I'd like to say I haven't because I don't want any more competition hehe... They seem to be doing a lot more graphic design/logo contests now though- I'm not much of a graphic designer.

Nice- I like how the villian's cockblocking at the end haha.

Hmm, they must be having server problems again. Basically it's a game that starts off with one person writing a description of something. The next person has to draw what that person wrote, then the next person has to write what they see in the drawing, so on and so forth. Naturally the message gets...

Nope- I didn't win. Here's the video that won:

That's the last time I enter a contest that relies on public votes to determine the winner

I'm not sure how to animate this little Santa. He's got this huge mouth- so when it closes should his cranium come down to let his lips match up (greatly reducing his overall height) or should his bottom lip come upward to meet with his top lip?

Just curious: do you draw your images directly in AS using the pen tool? They seem to have that squiggle look going on which is what happens when you try to "draw" in AS. Not sure if it was an intended look or not- but I would suggest using the add points tool and work from a scanned-in sk...

That's how every good commercial should leave you feeling, right?

Might I suggest opening an account at photobucket.com? It's free- you just upload your picture and it will give you the code which you can copy and paste to put right in the forums.

It's that time of year again- time to make a Christmas toon! Here's my Santa:
