Not only did I work on the animatic, but I'm also the voice of the man with the plan! If you don't count the Ghost of Histories Present from Season Too: Episode 10, this is my voice acting debut with Cyanide & Happiness.

 

I was really happy with how this one turned out; I worked on the animatic (half-animated storyboard / framing) for Winston the Worm! Check it out!

Before this, I had worked on two ads for Season Too, as well as significant portions of Episode 8 and our season finale in episode 10 for Season Too. I've been doing shorts for the past month or so now, and Winston was the first! 

Hope y'all enjoy!

This video was the very first thing Cyanide & Happiness had me work on. I worked with the director and created the animatic that became this animation.

 

This all happened very fast...but, on Monday I start my job as an animatic artist for Cyanide & Happiness, and I couldn't be more excited!

I've been hopping around jobs, some creative, most pretty much just labor. Odd-jobs being a camera-man to full-time jobs being a service associate at a pro Audio repair shop. Past couple of times I've been doing some flier or band artwork for local music, they turn it down because they can't afford what I'm asking, or the ideas were...less than inspiring.

But wow, folks...CYANIDE & HAPPINESS!!! This is the beginning! I'll get my momentum up and rolling and actually finish what I started all those years ago. I've never been more motivated...never been so ready to create!

I haven't been this happy in many years.

I had to share it with you all.

I want to create for you all.

It's finally time!

-GG-

In the beginning, and on the last installment...more to come!

On the last episode of The Sundae Comic.

Its been so long...I still have so much written out for that storyline arc, and yet, not enough drawn.

Should I continue it?

Yep, here it is.

I've been alone with visions in my mind...
To thwart your plans upon Third Earth...a thousand times...
I sometimes see you at the castle's door...
Mummra? Is it me you're looking for?
I can see it in your eyes.
I can hear it in your laugh.
You're already ever-living...
...and the Sword of Omens waits.
'Cause you know just what to say
And you know just what to do
And I want to tell you so much...
...Thundercats, hoooooooooooo--

Though Jaga calls upon me to beware...
Reminds me of the time you trapped us in your lair.
Dangling by chain over lava flow...
Mummra? I've just got to let you know.
Cause I wonder where you are.
Are you lonely in your tomb?
Is it a drag being a mummy?
Or is it a drag just being you?
Tell me how to make you stop...
...If there's something I can do.
But let me start by saying...
...Thunder 
Thunder 
Thundercats...

HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

With the progress that was made with Fogahn, I decided to use that character to represent this account as a wicked looking avatar. In the past, I've simply used a black Texan flag as an icon, so I mixed the two. The glowing orange underneath was supposed to play off of the link to the name "Phobotech" above the image. 

With Fogahn as the base, this was the first.



...But after rocking that for almost a year, I began to look fondly back on the original helmet design, seen here. I began tinkering around with a variant icon that was closer to that design. My favorite colors being blue and silver, the second icon came out more like something out of GI Joe...not what I was going for, but it was on the right track.



I began tweaking around the helmet designs and tinkering around with color choices, until finally I had a great King Fogahn icon that I used to represent "Phobotech." The third icon was one of my favorites.



But now its time for a change. I'm growing bothered by the armored half-halo that mounts at the chest and sweeps over the shoulder. I've been wanting to do a modern adaptation of the King Fogahn helmet for some time. I've done variants with helmets, with hats, with gas masks, with more spikes... Today, I decided to throw in a denim vest I've been wearing for years. Here's the fourth icon!



What do you guys think?
