You are an excellent animator! My only gripe is the Kerbal model you are using is kind of creepy looking.

Yeah... it's still a bit of a WIP model... it will (probably) improve over time

I think the reason most people see it as kind of off is two reasons.

One; It's a kerbal and has a low voice of a 16 year old man

two; most people see kerbals with their mitten gloves on, and don't see them very often with the fingers showing.

It's brilliant, I love how the kerbal moves its head and hands. Makes it seem much more alive.

Plus, your voice is awesome, which is an added bonus.

Nah. My main issue is that the hair goes down too low.

This is a Kerbal:

And then this is yours:

Oh. whoops. i guess i left that kerbal bald.... (the one in the background of course)

I'll work on the textures for the next episode.

EDIT: also, the kerbal's skin doesn't look like the one in the image your provided because that is a picture of a kerbal through the helmet.... glass... thing. but now that i've got a much closer image of one (thanks for that) i can improve my model/textures

Maybe it's just a kerbal with long hair? After all, the kerbals we see are astronauts so it's not out of the question that the ones we see just have shaven heads.

I guess you could say they have a -puts sunglasses on- Buzz aldrin cut.

My main issue is how awful that pun was

[rewdew2]

Opportunities for puns like that only come around once or twice a day. I grasp them when i can

Camera angles are wierd.

[rewdew2]

Camera angles are wierd.

I'll see what i can do to improve that.

Oh, here's something i should ask.

Would you prefer the camera angles to be straight on like i'm talking into a webcam, or shifting from time to time. (as seen in the pre-season announcement)

Be sure to tell me what you think

EDIT; the angle this time was like that was because i couldn't move the body in time for recording

No you didn't, there's still life in this thread. Though speaking of dead this episodes music seemed a bit sad, kind of soap opera character dying in hospital sad.

I really like the idea of this show and i like watching the progress it's making, take your time, the games not even done yet and ,though i can't speak for anyone else, I'm

not going anywhere.

I really shouldn't laugh at puns like that, but i did

Yeah... i've only got 75 songs in my I-tunes library. about 5 have voices singing, so those are out. 4 i can't use because of copyrights. about 15 i can't use because they don't really fit.

So that leaves me with about 51 songs, and most of those 51 didn't fit with the video because of length... so i was left with about 3...
