For it's 30th anniversary, check out this upscaled, remastered, release of "The Tearing", the first episode of ReBoot!

I'm bringing Hexy back.

Good visual reference on Hexadecimal (And Reboot in general) is shockingly hard to find, so when I found a guy who had done 4k upscales of the series on YT, it was time for some screencaps.

It's a pity the first(ish?) truly all-CG cartoon was probably not preserved in a state that would let it be re-rendered at higher resolution. What was at the time a massive technological undertaking could be rendered real-time on a mid-tier computer now.

Her whole mask-swapping gimmick was, itself, a way of turning tech limitations into an interesting feature. Save time on facial animation and lip synch while making her more memorable.

Every action cartoon series needs a villainous femme fatale, and Hex dispenses with most of the subtlety. She's a dominatrix-witch with a, uh, sprite-tight red leather bodysuit and latex or possibly black painted metal gloves and thigh-boots.

None of us should have been surprised by Blackarachnia is all I'm saying.

And like any good villainess, she's got a full on murder-mode.

And this is going to take more than one post.

One of my favorite sequences in all of Beast Wars. I absolutely love the look of cybertron here, especially the lights and colors, in all of its late '90s 3D fun =]

I feel dumb now for not realizing all of these were made by the same people.

What is your favorite cartoon to come out of the 1990s?

[gooeykit]

I like to think she's always growing new teeth like sharks and shit and has to teethe the old ones out

In all my years, how did I now only think of this?

Hey, here's an update on my game dev project for class, Mainframe. Meteor Blitz (the robot) can now walk in two whole directions (!) and use four different attacks!

(Created in Unity using the Universal Fighting Engine tools and template asset. The model, rig, animations, and moveset design and parameters are my work. Everything else is provided and will be replaced in due time.)
