This is getting closer to the final entry. I won't post again until tomorrow afternoon, I promise! Anyway, I've adjusted some flaws.

This is the the last main stage of my entry this month. After this, it's just a few curve pushes here and there, maybe a lighting adjustment. With some help from the forums, I've snapped up a lot of the piece, as well as added some more continuity to the laugh. The guy on the forums also noticed a pop near the end. I fixed the pop, and worked a "gap between the drawings" or "big frame" on the final take. I think it really snaps into that pose. There's also a new addition at the end of the piece, where the first guy responds to the second guys yell. I've already worked out a really nice render. It basically contains: approximate AO, a blue hemi lamp on the right side of the camera, a red one on the left, and a white (I think it's white, could be red though.) hemi lamp brightening up the Igloo guys face.

Here's the render:
 

This is the clean block of the first character. Most of the work was done by eye in linear, but some was done in the graph editor, also in linear. I used the graph editor when I had a lot of poppy keys that I couldn't control. I would drag the linear vertices's up or down to create a smooth curve, and to fix pops that I couldn't see in the viewport.
