1) Tools
You'll need art tools at the least. I recommend the GIMP, personally, as it can do all the things you need it to do; recolouring the sprites and making a gif.
2) Sprites
The bare necessities. You'll need these before you can even think of getting started. These are also in the correct order for animation.

3) Masks
You'll probably notice that the main (grey) body of the missile has been recoloured. If this is unwanted, use these to easily replace them. Just copy them over the top, picking the right one for the fin config, and enjoy;
