Admin Post: Weekly Challenge - AMNESTY WEEK

[goss]

What is Amnesty Week?

Amnesty Week means that you get a second shot at all four previous Weekly Challenges. Did you have an idea earlier in the month, but didn't get the chance to put it on paper, or needed more time to work on your sketch? Well, now's your chance to complete your drawing and share it with us. :)

When is Amnesty Week?

Amnesty Week will run from today, Sunday 30th July, 2017 to Saturday 5th August, 2017.

Can I post a second artwork for a challenge, even if I already took part in it?

Yes! You can definitely take another swing at a challenge you already answered, and post as many different artworks as you want.

Weekly Challenge #4: 1 Object, 2 Perspectives - ZPM (SGA/SG1) - and a technical ask

[mific]

Title: Rodney's Treasure (on my DW)
Artist: mific 
Rating:  SFW (G)
Fandom:  Stargate Atlantis, SG1
Characters/Pairings:  implied Rodney off-screen making grabby hands
Content Notes: digital artwork. I relied heavily on several photo references, mostly this great 3D modelling by chiletrek on Deviantart, and also on photos of "real" ZPMs from the show, from Stargate Wiki. 

Linked with this, I wanted to make it into a gif but my giffing software is old and crappy so I had to put that idea on hold. I mean a gif as in an animation made from images, not pulling a gif out of video footage). What do you guys use to make animations? Is there a good free programme or on-line thing out there that doesn't force you to advertise the programme? Or if there's not, I'd settle for a cheap paid programme as well. Any suggestions welcome!
