here's my first animation with anim8or and my first serious attempt at three dimensional art. Enjoy (i plan on creating a starscape and adding stuff like engine effects later).
Flying ship

How much harder is it to animate once you've got the model down, out of interest?

Depends on how complex the model and the scene.

Modelling and animating are 2 entirely different skills, there's no real comparison between the two.

Darth, you might want to look into using a compression codec such as DivX or Intel Indeo instead of leaving the video uncompressed. That's why your zip file of the animation was only 700k and unzipped the full 2 seconds of animation weigh in at a hefty 25 meg. If you'd compressed it with something like DivX during creation then the animation would have been just a few hundered kilobytes.

Man, you can't do anything right, can you?

It's not bad, I suppose.
