Destroy the Snowman!

At Christmas time, people love to send e-cards, I had wanted to make one with a slight difference.
I came up with concept, illustrated, animated in Flash – this simple ‘game’ had taken about 2 weeks to make.

I like illustrating with Flash for different reasons:
- I find Flash tool quite intuitive to use, saves grabbing files from Illustrator;
- vector graphics for fast download, saving objects as movies, reusing in animating;
- note that I use gradients to ‘add depth’, I find this style a little more elegant than compared to solid fills.

So go and see if you can destroy the snowman!
It’s more fun than building one!

This was made around 2005.
