Oh, man, that is spectacular. Fabulous work, machi, and nice upgrade, ugordan! If I weren't two sheets to the wind already this evening I'd post it now. Must remember to post it tomorrow or Monday! As a general comment, nearly any time I post an animation I always slow it down substantially (setting frame delays to a minimum of 0.25 seconds) so that the viewer has time for eyes to focus on features in each frame. I also usually put in a pause on the last and first frames in order to allow people the time to recognize that the sequence is starting over.
