…So I did my second ever animatic and it’s Darkstache using DHMIS audio…oddly sounds about right-
BUT YEE- I decided to make an animatic about this cause 1. ....I dunno I was in the mood to "animate" s o m e t h i n g - And 2. Since this audio has been going around a bunch, I started to imagine it with the few ships I had, and Darkstache I thought fit it pretty well! Caurse Dark with the monotone voice fit pretty damn well, and Will....i dunno something about him saving the battery for a calculator he most likely will never use kinda fits- XD
Also, I don't really ship Fluffybird (The ship of Red Guy and Duck from DHMIS), this audio just kinda fits with other ships, so take that as you will!
To be honest I'm a b i t nervous posting this since I don't post much ship stuff, I really don't have too many ships really, but Darkstache is one I really like a lot! So figured it's worth it, and I hope you like it too! Helped with some of my art block, and still learning with animation/animatics, so at least it's got that! :]
...also we always need some more Darkstache content out there cause come on sometimes it seems like this well is d r y -
i'm so sick of people who use the fact that mabel is very much like bill (yes, true!) and that bill even likes mabel (again, yes, true!) and understands her in some ways (again yes!!! true!!!!!!!!!! what was the bubble but a party that never ends with a host that never dies?) and then twist it to fuel their mabel hate. like for one, every pines family member has some deep commonalities with bill because he's an effective villain and plays off the heroes of the story so well! but ALSO because it completely disregards how their core philosophies about the world and people around them differ and it bums me out
i have said this before, exactly like this, and i will say it again. the main difference between bill and mabel is that bill finds the universe and the people in it constricting and dull and frustrating while mabel sees the beauty in dull people and things and sees them as full of potential. bill sees something boring, he destroys it, mabel sees something boring, she gets out her glitter glue. mabel is so filled to the brim with love and affection for others and such a wild desire to make everyone, including herself, happy at all times, and bill is trying so hard to be happy that he deliberately hurts people, ruins his own life, ruins the lives of everyone around him and then doesn't understand why he's so miserable. like these two are fascinating because they are both remarkably similar and WILDLY different and, most importantly, they are interesting to look at as foils because mabel is a good person
In Lancer's case, this is after she's had her T-Cog and Wings restored. Relearning to fly after a some tens of thousands years isn't intimidating at all haha. Seriously though, Lancer is going to need a lot of PT to get her joints back into proper condition after not transforming for so long but she'll get through it.
Moonracer on the other hand is suffering of the impromptu shut-downs I mentioned a bit in this post and is about to get so many parking tickets.
COMMISSIONS OPEN
(the Parts needed for Lancer's recovery were acquired by the rest of the team through a series of off the books "side quests" involving shady bastards ranging from Moony's older ex-'Con older brother to organ-harvesting bounty hunters who really, REALLY should be arrested. Lancer is unaware of the details of the "how" but knows that they must have gone through hell and back for them.)
Yes, it's an animation meme, and yes, I still can't make a game-accurate background :,(
I posted this on almost every social I have at this point. I think you guys can tell which parts of the meme were made more recently. Also yes they are fan designs!!!
It's insane to me that between Yura (literal Disney princess, loved by animals, always kind and helpful no matter the route) and Gaku (Gaku), it's actually Gaku who's the optimist. Like, holds onto the thinnest shred of hope with no proof for hundreds of years kind of optimist.
And he's so confidently optimistic, too. Like, he's barely even fazed when the protagonist finally appears. He doesn't fall to his knees and weep with joy that he hasn't been waiting that long for nothing (which, okay, would be a little ooc), because he had 100% faith it would happen. He fully believed a solution would appear, whether through his own research or via the protagonist. If not today, maybe tomorrow. If not this year, maybe next year.
Even when the person he loved more than anything thought it was useless and wanted him to give up, he didn't. Even when the protagonist flat out said they couldn't help, he got upset, but he didn't pack it up and give in. I'm not saying desperation doesn't play a role in his persistence, but desperation and patience don't usually go together. Gaku simply never turned away from the possibility of a happy future.
All while Mr. Disney Princess was sneaking out to murder the local wildlife and talk shit at Doman.
