Thanks for the input everyone. I'll work on it and see what I can come up with. Besides, I'm not too fond of the animation and have an idea on how to improve it. I've also created my own texture now so the issue of it being a retexture will soon be a thing of forgotten memory.

I thought it should be rather bright although maybe I'll tone it down and see what happens.

Thanks for the positive reinforcement. It's comments like these that inspire me to do more and give more.
I straddle the line between genius and insanity. Guess which side I'm on now?
