Super Smash Bros is Shit!

Posted by Gerkinman - May 16th, 2008


The Ultimate Asparagus has once again hit a speed bump causing release to be pushed back. Now now, it was nothing nasty, infact it was my fault. I decided i wanted to make one particular scene into a very nice frame by frame sequence, which doesnt sound like much, but when you consider its 40 seconds long and im animating at 30fps you can see how it might stight to take a little time. Once this scene is finished the rest will come easy, but until then... many a sleepless night. Boom Blox and GTA4 dont help either.

In other news, once Break on Through and Hush are out of the way i might be reviving one of my old series, not the original Gerkinman and not War of the Worlds (Which i instead have bigger plans for if this new iteration of an old series goes well). Heres a hint, its about 4 little creatures and there adventures around the town of Nimbin. Can you guess what it is?

And finally heres the poster for the upcoming Asparagus short. Its also in a similar style to how i plan to do this revived series.

Ah, the old bait-n'-switch to get people in...Classic. Oft-times annoying, but classic.

Pseudo-intellectualism aside, looking forward to the finished product. *nods*

People on Newgrounds dont respond to anything that isnt Video Game related, i tried vaginas last week and even that didnt draw to much attention.

So theres no caramel cream pies this time? :0

Sadly not :(

It's already been released, for a while now

What does that matter?

@Dazmi: Not Australia...

PM me when the the flash is done!

okay dokey

Datz a great pic. I like the shading. Smash bros isn't shit. It's great.

can i have a pickle and nice drawing ^_^

I dont get the relationship between smash bros and your post

There is none.

That's one sweet style, dude. I really dig it. I was going to say something about psychedelic, but I think the mushroom on his tongue speaks for itself ;P Can't wait to see it when it's done!

Also, I like the attention grabbing title. Although I was drawn to your name first, and title second ;)

I doubt itll be the most practical style for animating, depending on how i do it, most likely a combination of basic character models and scene specific character models. Just a pain hand drawing everything, then scanning them, the vectoring them but what ya gonna do.

Awesome art, also, Brawl is shit. And I agree with the title.

Eh, I think it would be worth it in the end. Yeah, sounds like a pain in the ass, but experimenting is often fun. Plus I think it would turn out great :)

I hope it will. Just got to get my current projects out of the way.

good luck it should be a hard and rewarding project.

gonna play brawl now.

Im hoping itll be rewarding, it sucks putting a tonne of effort into something and having it ignored.

I was about to say old news topic is old but... you lied to me D:

Flying Fucks.

Fucks Flying

lineless = delicious for many things.

smash is fun, the internet fans are a completely different story : /

chocolate is also delicious

I thought this was going to be a rant, I love rants.

Yahtzee already said everything that needed to be said.

GENERIC FAN BOY POST ABOUT HOW SUPER SMASH BROS IS THE SHIT AND HOW SONIC PWNS!!!

Fuck i hate sonic.

Sounds great, but why animate a frame by frame at 30? Work at 24. The human eye can't tell the difference for any frame rate past 24. You'll just be making more work for yourself.

I like extra work :)

let me tell you, that worked.

HEY FUK U SMASH BROZ BRAWL IS DA BEST GAME EVER BITCH I WILL PWN UR ASS WIT SOLID SNAKE U R TEH N00B TEH N00B TEH N00B TEH N00B TEH N00B TEH N00B TEH N00B TEH N00B TEH N00B TEH N00B TEH N00B TEH N00B TEH N00B TEH N00B TEH N00B TEH N00B TEH N00B TEH N00B TEH N00B TEH N00B TEH N00B TEH N00B TEH N00B
