Looks good.

GO DNA STUDIOS!!!
If I can work there next to Keith Lango for the rest of my life, I wouldnt want anything more after that.

I noticed this the first time this preview came out for the PSP on IGN late October; the Bully looks strikingly similar to my character design for Thomas's APP project... which I created with in the first two weeks of class for Thomas... great gonna have a tough time getting respect for my work if I'm gonna send this to a festival.

"Let's do another 3d animated flick about Ants!!!"

I don't know/care if the story came first. It's a bad idea to rehash the bug world again! They even use similar style of animation...

Don't worry about it Will. A) don't think this one will be known to a lot of people and B) there's only a passing similarity.
