Brothers! Come one and all! Step right up to the weekly sensation that is FLASHGITZ FRIDAY! Here, you can have all the fun you want with weekly Space King production updates with no pesky height requirements!
It looks like the fun has just begun for a lot of you! Waves of little Psycho Warriors are coming home and are being greeted by brand-new paint jobs! Yes, I’ve been seeing your posts on social media.
Love this guy’s color palette! Praise Be!
Keep on painting and posting your little warriors! It makes Space King (and me) happy. And if you haven’t gotten yours in the mail yet, don’t give up home! Hundreds of these little bastards are still making the journey home, so keep that mailbox nice and tidy for their arrival.
Space King 5’s progress has been beautiful! We’ve been getting everything together for Space King’s biggest episode yet. Our artists have been animating scenes left and right, coloring incredible backgrounds, and drawing more special poses than there are stars in the sky. We’ve even begun compositing the scenes with the finished lighting! Yes, it all sounds very romantic, but this level of output should be expected. We have deadlines, and if we don’t keep them, our bosses (you) will mount our balls on their walls.
Take a look at some of the scenes we’ve animated!
Captain sure is happy to be on War World. Is this the Space King equivalent of a Disney adult?
Check out the sinister lighting in this comped shot! Ooo~ how blue!
You can’t run from the blue lights, Chestnut!
Chestnut’s mother comes to pick him up.
The squad laughs as Chestnut mispronounces his first slur.
One of the lowly humans dry heaves (it’ll be a wet heave when the VFX is inserted.)
It’s starting to look like a finished cartoon! Some of those shots, like Chestnut and the white erect gentlemen are basically finished, so in a way, you kind of got a sneak peek at the cartoon! Lots of surprises in today’s Flashgitz Friday, huh?
Take a look at a few more pieces of production art I’ve found!
Muttered whispers call this device the “stool softener”. Why? Don’t ask.
A podium. Pretty common in Space King, no?
A hog and his *ham*mer :-)
The Cathedral is in ruins because Psycho Warriors don’t pay tithe.
The train’s laser defense system keeps birds from smashing the stain glass windows.
The train heads west where the wild giant Psycho Warriors roam free.
It’s insane what you can do when you have a whole warehouse full of incredible talented artists chained to their desks. It’s getting me excited for Space king 5, but that’s not out yet! What’s a boy to do? I know what I can do to pass the time! THE TOM AND DON CHANNEL!
This week’s topic on the Tom and Don channel is the Super Mario Bros Movies! As resident experts on all-style/no-substance Mario films (we created a little thing called RACIST MARIO. Maybe you’ve heard of it), the recent Mario movies needed attention. But if you want to hear the full critique, you need to go watch the video! We also had to put this one together very fast because we haven’t done many movie reviews hehe.
Take a sneak peek at what you’re missing out on!
Nintendo’s biggest fans.
It gets cold in the studio!
Don’t stare at the paintings too long in this ep or you’ll go mad.
Whether you’ve seen the Mario Galaxy movie or not, get over there and watch the latest upload! You want to support the channel, don’t you?!
Well, Brothers, that wraps up this Flashgitz Friday! And what an FF it was! You got fully comped shots, animated segments, cat costumes, and you’re even going to get some fan art here at the end! I hope it’s got you excited for everything coming over the next few months as we dive into production on Space King 5!And don’t think I forgot to thank our generous Brothers, Greedy Brothers, and Very Greedy Brothers for all your support! Your contribution means the world to Space King and it couldn’t exist in a world without YOU (the person reading this.) So for that, we say THANK YOU! And Praise Be!
Now let’s get to some fan art!
The “Aliens” meme redrawin with Hatemonger by u/Maximum_Chest_5000 on Reddit! This is VERY well-painted for a meme I haven’t seen in years!
Some God Weapon art by u/TrikaTheShadow on Reddit! We don’t get enough art of this guy! Great work!
Mighty Morphin Psycho Rangers by u/chanceycakes on Reddit! Pay no attention to the pink one…
Until next week, Brothers!
Praise Be!
