Well, I’ve finished the Blender Introductory Tutorial. You can see Gned’s pretty damned happy about it. I think he was tired of me poking at him. I followed the tutorial pretty closely, though there were places it differed wildly from my version of Blender. Thankfully, things are laid out in a pretty intuitive fashion, so finding what the tutorial author was talking about in any given portion only took a few minutes of head scratching. I also used my own sound file, in stead of the one linked in the tutorial.

All in all, I had a lot of fun doing this, and I feel pretty comfortable moving forward with my own projects in Blender. So, without further ado, here’s the finished animation sequence. Don’t blink. Remain calm.
