Glad you guys like it so much. Remember to send orders if you haven't, I'll be going away for a week soon so you have about two weeks to send them.

@OP:

I paused at 10 seconds in with the conclusion:

YOU ARE AWESOME AND THIS IS WIN

What program did you use to make the stop animation?

I use a freeware program called monkeyjam and capture the images using it with my Logitech Quickcam Pro 9000 webcam, and my editing is done with sony vegas movie studio.
Thanks for your approval!

Could you please post overview pictures here? I don't want to hurt my eyes squeezing at the youtube screen.

I agree - while I was surprised at how you could put something so great together so quickly, I really felt it could have used some establishing shots to give a better idea of how the individual events fit into the overall action.

Thanks for the feedback stubby, and I'll get on that Apollyon, although you can pause and maximise the video to fullscreen by pressing the button with the arrows pointing outwards (or the one with the boxes, I can't remember).

I knew that of course but this way i cannot visualize my orders for you. Unless i grab screenshots of course. You are supposed to have all the hassle hosting a forum battle!

I will try to send in orders later tody, anyway.

Could I get a pic of the other side of my faction? I can only find pictures that show the Stormies and Space Police, I can't figure out what's on the other side of the car.

Sorry aoffan, going away for a week now, no more pics or anything until then.
There isn't anything on the other side of the car really, it has just 5 (from memory) guys with ranged weapons.

Alright, that's all that's needed. Thanks.

That was so well done, Very clean cut and very fluid animation skills. I'm very pleased to see how you handled it, looking forward for the rest.
Great job man, You're going to be a nice addition around here.

Maybe you could add a soundtrack.
