How about using Vegas studio or even better Vegas Pro? You may be able to find a free version, but they are all affordable. I will send you updates on my work, but I think you have a great idea and great concepts. I am an Apple geek, but Anime Studio works better on PC, and Vegas is great. I love your show, and I think you should have some additional software to finesse it.
Talk to you soon.

Thanks Monty! I'll look into anime studio pro. Have you used it before? More incidental music is a good idea too. I've messed around with Garage Band before, but I've got a PC so its a no go for my computer. All the sounds from the show so far are pretty much self-made, aside from the music and the occasional bird (which we make in a music program). Stuff like Garage Band and Flash Kit are good sources for inspiration though.

Thanks for the positive. I just started doing animation last June. I began to do turtorilas on MYA and Cinema 4 D, but my models were created in and architectural program I use for designing (my original career). I decided the best thing for me was to first teach myself 2d animation, then work with someone on the 3d. Madpuss is a 3d model, that I then put into photoshop to break up into parts for Anime Studio Pro (it allows 3d layers). I would like to be doing more with the 3d but my personal feeling is that most 3d looks bad because the fun of 3d is the detail on the models. That is not what makes for great animation in my opinion. But I would love to take a pill and have the knowledge to work in 3d completely. I think I have a good idea of the aesthetic I want.
