>Co-creators of your show are so ashamed that they scrub their names from the projectWas the backlash really that bad?
>>154232951LmaoThis is why I don't believe in collaboration unless it's paid
>>154232951He should double down and make Chimptopia Kills The Glitch Universe.
>>154232951Seems rather cowardly.
>>154232951Sundays on FOX
>>154232951Don't back down now Nolan and "Waffles", you were so proud before. Stand beside Robbie, own this bullshit you dickless cowards
>>154232951In the indie world, trying to get creative partners or co-writers is a pain in the ass. I honestly feel that this is something that only works in the professional realm
>>154232951this is good actually, he can replace their characters with cute/silly/wacky ones (preferably female), then he will be unique as the normal human guy
>>154232951KekNow I honestly feel bad for ol robbyNot only is his show getting (rightfully) ridiculed but now his so called friends are letting him take 100 percent of the fall
>>154233069>Personality: Flaming Heterosexual
>>154232951I wonder why the co-creators of Chimptopia Nolan Nichols and Ethan Wofse wanted to scrub their names from the poster? Are Nolan Nichols and Ethan Wofse embarrassed to be a part of the shit show that is Chimptopia? I have a hard time believing that Nolan Nichols and Ethan Wofse weren't in on the rollout plans for Chimptopia from the beginning. What a couple of pussies.
>>154233069>I honestly feel bad for ol robbyif it makes you feel any better, he's too stupid to fully grasp what just happened. He's been posting on twitter about how he hopes people still want to donate to his project.
>being afraid of Glitch fansShould've doubled down.
>>154233151NTA but it really doesn’t. I still feel kind of bad for him and think the reactions went a smidge too far.
>>154233164I haven't seen anything that has gone beyond rightly calling his show dogshit and talking about how his teaser was made in poor taste. I don't think that's too far. It's accurate.
>>154232951You can tell this is the kind of show that wants to make right-wing commentary but the creators don’t actually have the balls to commit so they’ll use “zany characters” with the same stereotypes as racial minorities instead of just doubling down and showing niggers nigging or chinks chinking. >Um, yeah bro, the landlord is a chimp even though he’s obviously a caricature of an indian slumlord!Coward shit.
>>154232951Was this made with GoAnimate or Amazon's AI service?
>>154233216indiefags on xitter were calling the show racist
>>154233069>>154233151>>154233164Robbie needed to get a taste of the real world. If you're making something and want people to fork over money to buy, then you need to learn how to sell ut, and have it something worth buying in the first place. People on the internet didn't like and aren't interested? Tough tits. There's dozens of projects the public rejects regularly for one reason or another. It's your job as an artist to learn from that failure and do something different next time or double down.
who gives a shit, Glitchfags deserve to be mocked
they updated the stretch goals and episode 4 went from 500k to 40klel
>>154233421
>>154233421>>154233436Definitely more realistic, but I’m still not sure this is the type of show that needs tens of thousands for production.
>>154232951Yeah, tranny flag username accounts on twitter are genuinely nasty and make it their life mission temporarily to bully anyone they don't like off the internet and then try to ruin their irl lives as well.
>>154233342He made his landlord who certainly seems hispanic a monkey and called him chimp. Between that and working for Nick Fuentes, he's not beating the allegations.
>>154233421now they didn'thttps://www.kickstarter.com/projects/robertpagliaro/chimptopia-indie-animated-pilot
>>154232951Did they actually?
>>154232971He should have doubled down.>>154233151>>154233164There is an element of pity because he just graduated from college and his first attempt becomes the source of ridicule because of hubris.I wish him luck, and that one day he can make a great animated project, because a good redemption story is always welcome.
>>154233451>I’m still not sure this is the type of show that needs tens of thousands for productionThey're looking for $10k per episode. That is not very much money. Zeurel spends like $80k and he does almost all the animation himself (which he doesn't include in that budget). Granted, the animation for an action series like MW is going to be more involved than something like this where a trio of idiots sits on a couch and talks, animation is still more expensive than you'd think. Anons who think that $10k is too much have never tried to animate a single thing in their life.
>>154233421>going out of your way to make this fake imagelmfao mental illness, absolute mental illness, because your boring FOTM pibby but video games slop was insulted.
>>154233460I'm honestly considering backing it and shilling it just cause of that. The castration cult needs to know they are not welcome and that we want cartoons that are made for the people and not for social standing amongst the rainbow hair brigade
Here's that joyous and optimistic guy I was telling you about
>>154233538>castration cultOh god, this schizo has left /v/
Theres already a tvtropes page of it holy KEK the troonies are mad
>>154233505>There is an element of pity because he just graduated from collegenah, fuck him. This is a real life lesson. He'll be able to grow past this (assuming he doesn't handle the blowback like a retard), but this is a good dose of reality. He's no longer being sheltered by his Staten Island parents or his school from the consequences of his actions. At a time when animation jobs are at an all-time low and the industry is at risk of collapsing, he chose to throw stones which was really dumb. His life isn't over. But he's going to have a tough time successfully funding this show. And he may not have the easiest time getting work on indie productions for awhile which, while not glamorous as far as pay goes, can help supplement your income and give you connections while bolstering your portfolio. But realistically, unless he plays this in the dumbest way possible, nobody is going to remember or care about this in a month. So I say, fuck him. Let him take his licks for now and learn about life and he'll be better for it.
>>154233342>>154233477It’s not racist enough >>154233307
>>154232951This looks awful lmao
>>154233538>backing America First brown nationalist “I hate Israel but I love Jews” cucks to own da libsThe absolute fucking state of the “right wing” in this country JFC
>>154233568Obsessed>>154233650The castration cult is more dangerous and needs to be opposed in any way possible
>>154233477Why can't Americans look at monkeys without thinking of racism? Seems like the same retarded issue as looking at orcs and thinking they represent blacks.
>>154233159>>being afraid of Glitch fansGlitch antis don't even like this shit bro.
>>154233538I hate trannies and kikes as much as the next guy, but I'm not gonna back something just because it vaguely gestures to things I agree with. Supporting something because it has "the right opinions" is exactly what untermensch do
>>154233699The most popular video explaining the situation did not like Gameoverse.
>>154233684it wouldn't be an issue if it wasn't an issue. If Peter Jackson had directed some commercials for Patriot Front, people probably would scrutinize the orcs a bit more. Robby worked for Nick Fuentes and when called out on it, pretended like he had no idea who he was (which nobody is buying). Additionally, there aren't a multitude of monkeys. If all the characters were zany creations, nobody would blink at the monkey character. That said, his landlord is the only character who *seems* to be portrayed as a person of color who was also made into a monkey. That's going to raise some eyebrows.
>>154232951This kind of thing embarrasses animation artists, who have already been feeling invalidated by the employment situation. When attention on the project fades and the industry is done indulging in putting him in his place for a being clueless and unprepared student who made them look bad, it’ll be out of their system and he’ll either go on to work with them someday or he won’t.
>>154233151He announced he's overhauling the series concept and designs for what people want to see. I hope he somehow tries harder to make something cool and it literally doesn't just become the same gay shit. Imagine teasing your show saying it's better than the gay shit, get mocked, and make it the same fucking shit as everyone else
>>154233538>im throwing money into a dumpster to own the troons o algoDump it into a firepit next, now that would really make them seethe
>>154233920>he's overhauling the series concept and designs for what people want to seekekwhat a convictionless faggotI hope that's not literally what he's doing. Trying to chase what he thinks other people will think is good is not a great idea either. He's going to end up making unremarkable slop. The better way to go would probably be to spend some time watching more shit, and distilling down what he actually finds entertaining himself. Because I promise you, it's not going to be this: https://x.com/chimptopia_leak/status/2066282065100734785
>>154233989>https://x.com/chimptopia_leak/status/2066282065100734785Seems like he wants to be Smiling Friends but worse.
>>154232951I just don't know how you can graduate from scad just to make something so bland
>>154233621The problem is people are going to hang this over his head for the rest of his life, no matter how much he improves. Worst of all, they've decided he's racist for some reason, so his life is pretty much over. It'll forever be his identity even after he dies.
>>154234492This is why I am supporting itThe castration cult does not believe in redemption, save for their own
>>154232951The idea sucks shit and everyone working on it was delusional to believe that they had a kickstarter-worthy pitch for a show about their 3 self inserts going on mundane misadventures
>Chimptopia>Only one chimp>Not even a chimp but just a monkey human
>>154232951Doesn't look any worse the Amazing Digital Circus and Helluva Boss. What's the issue?
>>154233421>>154233436>graduated with an animation degree>somehow never learned what the cost of a single of a cartoon is>is just swinging blindly and hoping he lands on a number people will actually give him money for.Colleges are really just expensive daycares, huh? Does this guy even have a middling youtube channel to back this up or does he think he can go from zero to internet star in one kickstarter?
>>154234540They'll do a complete audit of your entire internet history and define you as your worst. They found some evidence that a VA for TADC said the N word singing along to a song, SEVENTEEN YEARS ago, when he was 13 or 14. Therefore to them, he's racist even at age 30 or 31. They really have nothing better to do, like fix their own fucking lives.
>>154234642Nobody actually gave a shit about the nega incident TADCfags were pissed about the movie going to theaters (or their headcanons not coming true) and spent the last two months trying and failing to take glitch and their affiliates down by any means.
>>154234728ThisOne tweet a week ago was calling goose all sorts of names and accusations only to end it with some bitching concerning Ragatha's character development
>>154234585You’re looking at what they learned in school. How to put together a pitch to fundraise. All the other art and story fundamentals that would make that skill worthwhile are the student’s problem.
>>154234492>His life is overNigger, it's a cartoon about monkeys. It's not like he had any chance of entering the decayed animation industry.You're only as cancelled as you allow yourself to be, hence why Zach Hadel still gets work despite his edgy past
>>154234492>they've decided he's racistyeah, designing shit for unapologetic white nationalists will tend to do that. >people are going to hang this over his head for the rest of his lifeStop being so fucking dramatic. The internet is having some fun at his expense for now. He'll be a minor footnote in a month. It will take some work humbling himself a little (which isn't a bad thing), but unless he doubles down and goes full magatard, he'll be fine. He just needs to shut the fuck up for awhile, do some grunt work on indie productions like everyone else for awhile, and pretty soon his portfolio will outshine his youthful indiscretions.
people are gonna remember this incident as glitchfans going apeshit on an up and coming creator over a kindergarten level joke
>>154234585Dude is a literal who, his Twitter only has 2k followers and his YouTube channel hasn't even hit a thousand Dude made the worst first impression I've seen in a while
>>154234642>Therefore to them, he's racist even at age 30 or 31.anon, nobody gave a fuck about that. Some retards on twitter were trying to make it into something, but they're definitely the minority. Notice, nobody was fired from TADC from it, they had a massive showing for their theatrical screenings, and the world is moving on. Jesus christ, stop being such a god damned pussy.
>>154232951Am I the only one that thinks that while this pilot is indeed shit, he actually wasn't that wrong either?Being a hypocrite doesn't makes your point wrong, Gameoverse suffers from having a bad male cast with terrible VAs and people only care about Kit due to being a goonerbait, it's not that different from Glitch Techs which /co/ only remembers due to the girl with big ass
Would be funny if in the final day Ross donates enough money to cover all the stretch goals with a “Sorry for ignoring your comment in 2021” message.
>>154234795He didn't know everything about him and backed out when he did.>Stop being so fucking dramatic. The internet is having some fun at his expense for now.Wait until video essayists make yearly videos of the drama regurgitating over the same shit again and again focusing on the downfall. They're still doing it with people like Game Dude in 2026.His fate is set in stone, this IS his identity as far as people will know forever.
>>154234811Twitter has managed to convince people that online retardation actually mattersThe site is botted to holy hell, I don't know how it's taken seriously in 2026
>>154234775>How to put together a pitch to fundraise. All the other art and story fundamentals that would make that skill worthwhile are the student’s problem.SCAD is actually one of the few schools that teaches students real life skills like that. There are courses for professionalism and final projects are set up so students pitch projects, a few get greenlit, and then students apply to be part of the team for the projects that are greenlit. It's all to address the things you're saying are specifically lacking from schools. You'd have a point if Pagliaro went to CalArts or SVA or Ringling, etc, but he went to the exact school that would better set him up for success than any other.
>>154233477no genuine person gives a shit about that, and xitterfags are barely people
>>154234642/co/ isn’t real life people really don’t care about internet gossip like that. Sucks for him that 1/3 of the animation industry is terminally online but if he’s racist irl he will screw up professional relationships just fine on his own
>>154234800People yes but here we'll remember how some retarded college graduate tried to get people to fund his generic adult sitcom number 475 by trying to punch up at a long time internet animator The reality of it though is no one will really remember anything about all of this because the internet has a selective memory
>>154234843I find the Fuentes thing more funny than anything else desu.The thought of a groyper making a cartoon like this is genuinely hilarious to me. But yeah, it was probably just a hired gun thing
>>154234850You misunderstand me. SCAD taught him to pitch, but not how to imagine and draw a cartoon worth pitching.
>>154234864I wasn't talking about /co/
>>154234843>He didn't know everything about himNobody is buying that excuse. Nobody. If you get an internship or job opportunity, the very first thing you do is google them. And the very first thing that pops up about Nick Fuentes is pic rel. Even IF he had never heard of him before (unlikely), the tiniest bit of curiosity about who he might be working for would give him all the answers he needed. >backed out when he didNope. He had the stuff he designed for Fuentes on his website until very recently when people found it and started posting about it. It was only then that he removed the work. If you somehow "accidentally" design stuff for nazis, you don't then add it to your portfolio. You're being both willfully stupid and a massive pussy.
>>154234892Twitter and 4chang are the same site
>>154234824Glitch should step in and give Robby his own show, it would definitively prove their dedication to the indie mission by giving a totally fresh creator a chance
>>154234849>Twittermost reasonable people stopped using it. Only dramafags and, apparently, anons from /co/ still use it. I love how anons try to pretend like Twitter is some cesspool, but every other thread is about what some idiot on Twitter said, and anons seem oddly plugged into whatever drama is going on there.
>>154234816Ok, Robby
>>154234854>no genuine person gives a shit about thatthen he should have no problem. So why bring it up?
>>154233489>>154233533wut? https://x.com/i/status/2066910379461013799
>>154234889ah, yes. My bad. That sort of thing is unteachable.
>>154234895>>154234843forgot the pic
>>154234895Ok, I suppose it's time to come cleanYes, I am and was well aware of Fuentes' politics. I have been a supporter of his for 6 years, I own his mugs, shirts, body pillows, posters, tote bags. I wanted to make a cartoon that paid homage to him and his work. I want to express his sense of humor and pro European values. I even modeled the landlord after him for fun. I know why you all hate Chimptopia, you're scaredScared of a White American male standing tall, making a series that spits in the face of the gatekeeping artistic eliteMy series explores dark philosophical themes, it provokes, makes you thinkAnd people just refuse to give it a chanceTypical
>>154234923>it would definitively prove their dedication to the indie missionGlitch has never proclaimed to be a fucking charity. They find projects they feel will be successful. They DON'T work with totally fresh creators. They work with creators who have been at it for awhile, and have already cut their teeth doing things on their own.
>>154234988I hate Fuentes and Groypers but calling him Nazi is dumb when most of his critics openly supported a Democrat that had a SS Skull tattoo on his chest.
>>154234998Awesome retard post, Bluesky anon. You really killed it with this one.
>>154234950>bending the knee and changing his vision according to what other people wantwhat a convictionless faggot. NGMI
>>154235012I know MD had the bug girl pilot, TADC had the Thalasin video, KoG has Dana and Gameoverse has two members of Game Grumps, what did the creator of Gaslight District worked on before his pitch?
>>154234917Not just there either. Everywhere like Youtube. Faceless video essayists will be milking and regurgitating this "drama" for decades to come, always introducing a new set of people of how to perceive the guy with his worst moments.
>>154235027>He'S NoT a NaZi BeCauSe SoMe oTHeR GuY HaS a TaTToo
>>154234932Did you even read my post?Both are fucking shit, retard
>>154235057>>154235062Are you mad, Robby?
>>154233539Finally a non-idealist optimism. I'm even willing to accept a romanticism optimism.
>>154235076He's not a Barney character in a Pibby clone with faggot dialogue so it's just not freaking okay, my /co/mblr bros will back me up on this.
>>154235051Nick Szopko had some super chill 3d animations he made in school about a robot type character. He probably wasn't known by twittertards, but he was a known creator in animation circles. He was also already working on Gaslight District before Glitch stepped in. I remember seeing the trailer well before he was involved with them.
>>154234976Only some of it. I agree with your original point though, if you are having students practice pitching and making pitches, that being the intended career path, a fuckin cartoon finance and logistics 101 class in the pathway outside of the student film productions would be more likely to set them up for success.
>>154235012If Glitch somehow offered to pick up my show idea I'd decline. The fans are filled to the brim of mental illnesses with nothing better to do than take all this shit way too seriously. No amount of success is worth that.
>>154232951Seriously though, where the fuck are Nolan and the Waffle guy? Robby has been the one taking all the licks for this despite the show having 3 creators I'd be pissed ngl
>>154235103>a fuckin cartoon finance and logistics 101 classI'm pretty sure that is actually taught there.
Robby just posted some redesigns
>>154232951I didn’t like gamoverse. This shit looks lazy AF. I thought we wanted to break away from traditional adult American animation with indie stuff?
>>154235113>If Glitch somehow offered to pick up my show idea I'd declineThis is like the bands who think if they had the opportunity to write music for a McDonalds commercial, they'd decline because they wouldn't want to sell out. Or the people who think that signing a deal with Netflix is stupid because they cancel projects too early. The only people who think like this are the types who anywhere near good enough to have that be a remote possibility. It's really easy to think you'd turn it down when there's no danger of that actually happening. The truth is that anyone who is actually good enough to get Glitch's attention would at least consider the option, and the mental retardation of the fanbase wouldn't be a factor. That's unfortunately an issue with any fandom for anything whether it's film, music, animation, etc. The move is to keep a healthy line between yourself and your fanbase. They can say whatever they want on Twitter. You don't need to read it.
>>154235198ThisI'd sell out in a heartbeat if given the opportunity. Making shit alone with no budget is awful and a humiliation ritual
>>154235187Still think either the trio or the rest of the city should also be chimps but still, looks better than the original
>>154235187coomers-uh I mean indiefans wont be satisfied unless they’re cute girls, furries, or nondescript homunculi
>>154235051>I know MD had the bug girl pilot,Murder Drones' predecessor is moreso Internecion Cube than Cliffside. Hell, it even means "Murder Cube". Quite a few concepts were moved over to MD when Liam Vickers got picked up by Glitch.https://youtu.be/RgNz7ltN-Nk?si=KEpYQRSQg4pisRgZhttps://youtu.be/nraIhGBBKT0?si=MYwhfTCplyRp3YnEhttps://youtu.be/Om9Id44vjKw?si=WryOmAFbglD2DyVu
>>154235097Who will be the next one to get a Glitch Pilot? I remember a rumor Glitch was interested in Aika the magical girl after its animatic released but the creator was not interested.
>>154235187Eddsworld.But shit.
>>154235128Everyone at SCAD takes a business 101 type class for general knowledge, the cartoon business class is opt-in for SeqA majors and is about understanding how to work with the business as in Hollywood in a traditional role, it’s not really financial education.
>>154235219SameI'd give anything to be in goose's position, I don't give a shit about muh toxic fansMeanwhile I'm making 2 min crappy animated shorts for 500 views while working my day job that can barely afford rent I'm close to roping
>>154235270John F. Fountain Zig ah Zig ahh
>>154235270>the creator was not interested.yeah, because she's in talks with fucking Disney.
>>154235283Thank you for the info, SCAD-anon
>>154235198That’s not really true, many rockstar artists have been known to stand on principle, and people who feel they’ve paid their dues feel free to refuse work. It’s just coming from everyone else it’s kind of a dumb thing to say you’d refuse when no one is asking for you in the first place.
>>154235338>many rockstar artists have been known to stand on principleSure. That's AFTER they already have other options. They have sold records, gone on tours, and gotten their bag. But you're right, I should have specified. I was talking about people who are good enough, but haven't quite broken through yet.
>>154234540Ey, its this retard again
>>154235187This is just 2000s flash style
>>154233826The landlord looks like average white guy. He looks like monkey Hasan Piker I even thought he was supposed to be a parody of him.
>>154233538>>154233680>>154234540Castration-kun is really obsessed with castration, huh? He should just cut his dick off and get it over with, already.
>>154232951Attaching yourself to a kickstarter project is a risk if you're working with competent people, doing one with a complete retard that flames out immediately even more so.
>>154235379>Hasan >WhiteIs it really that grim for America?
>>154235187at least they have some semblance of personality now, but they're starting to morph into Kyle Carrozza designs. Robert Pagliario pedo arc when?
>>154235187I admire that he hasn't shitcanned the project despite the overwhelming negative reception. Unfortunately for him the project depends on people's money to survive so it will ultimately fail regardless.
>>154235359That’s what I meant by paid their dues, but some people are just really good at what they do and happen to do what they choose from the start too. People who are nothing special refuse work if it’s against their morals or religion. Point being the thing that’s corny isn’t the idea, the thing that’s corny is claiming a choice you don’t have and not having the chops to back it up.

>>154235498It's always a jumpscare when you see namefags you recognize on twitter
>>154235498FUCKING KEK
There is the benefit of hindsight but if I had to do the teaser and had to include a Gobbles parody, I would have the Gobbles parody be a helper from an in-universe game that the main characters are playing. In the game, Nolan, who is a tester and is getting paid for it beats up the Gobbles parody out of frustration. Robbie asks why Nolan would do that to a character who is just trying to help him. Then, Waffles tells them to stop playing and clean the apartment because the landlord, Chimp, is doing a cleanup check in an hour, and they have work tomorrow.This idea isn't original, and it would still be seen as using an existing IP to get attention. However, it would showcase the characters' personalities. The Gobbles parody now has an angle that makes sense, how many times have playable characters or NPCs beaten someone up out of frustration or boredom? It's now more clear to the audience that the premise is guys in their 20s trying to pay rent while hanging out.
>>154232951Yeah this has to be a psyop secretly ran by GLITCH to turn away their hatred on something else, that being Not-Eddsworld. One idiot told me that this Robby guy is a real person but is too stupid to understand what a psyop means. I ain't buying it.
>>154236037It does feel strangely forced.
>>154235306Well shes screwed because her crap isnt episodic comedyslop based on the pilot. All Glitch saw was Aika merchanidising potential btw
>>154236095Are the people who are angry over the trailer considering what Ross would think of it?I don't think he would care nearly as much as everyone else.
>>154235270I really don't understand why people can't start their own personal indie animation production business, get an LLC and produce animations under their new company. Why rely on Glitch so much? Sure they can help fund it, but that doesn't mean you should give them the rights to your cartoon. Look at Spindle, most of their roster consists mainly of Vizvie's own cartoons with the exception of Homestuck. >inb4 but you need MONEY to do that!!!Then start a fucking fundraiser like on Kickstater or some shit. Some of these unfinished pilots and animatics have enough supporters to garner enough cash to start a small business. I started mine with only $250USD, this was back in 2014 in my state mind you. But it's not THAT expensive to start your own small company. Or make a fake one until you have you enough to give it an LLC, either way both works.
>>154235270That’s a shame, sure it’s another girl MC but at least they could have shaken off the racism allegations
>>154236189>All Glitch saw was Aika merchanidising potential btwWho.Gives.A.Fuck.
>>154235057>nazism is when you defend epstein???
>>154236321Because the point of Glitch is that the showrunner-creator keeps full control of the show, Glitch enables and produces the show.
>>154236566Both sides have ties to epstein. It's a uniparty, dumbass.
>>154236566I have no idea what your fucking argument is here, but I don't know how anything you're saying means that Fuentes is NOT a nazi
>>154236846Oh that's based.
>>154236846Was showing episode 9 in theaters two weeks ahead of schedule part of Goose's plan?
>>154232951there are autistic retards genuinely mad at this nothing burger here, so yeah, pretty bad.great friends this guy has though, pulling out over a little negative motion lmfao. choose your coworkers carefully people.
>>154233621>At a time when animation jobs are at an all-time low and the industry is at risk of collapsingLmfao.You deserve a dose of reality as well. Getting mad at some rando online won't get you out of being jobless. Go apply for MacDonalds already.
>>154236321>>154236846Glitch also has infrastructure to take advantage of. They have relationships with vendors/manufacturers, merch fulfillment services, they have design teams, they have relationships with streamers, etc. And they have a built-in audience. They have animation teams and relationships with 3rd party animation teams, payroll, etc.Yes, you can do all that shit alone, but you'll be starting from scratch. When someone already has all that shit in place, it's SOOOO much nicer to just be able to slot into their ecosystem and take advantage of existing pipelines. Add on top of that creator owned/creator run and no execs breathing down your neck telling you what you can or can't do, it's kind of a no-brainer.

>>154237536why is there a giant pretzel in the doorway?
>>154237637The artist said it's supposed to be Nolan.
>>154237748Thank you, MLGNathan...
What did you guys think of the redesign.
>>154238086The small guy doesn't even look like Goanimate Harry Partridge anymore, what's the point?
>>154238086Rob looks gayer.Nolan is an improvement.Waffles hoodie color doesn't suit him.
>>154232951Holy shit I can't believe someone actually saw the Fox Adult Cartoon aesthetic and thought>I want to make this as well
>>154238086slightly more personality. Still not good. I honestly don't think this is going to be something he can fix in a day or two. He needs to spend a couple months just exploring these characters. These look like the early sketches that artists usually discard when trying to work out who the characters really are, but they're boring as fuck. Even in the realm of typical Rick and Morty ripoff adult animation designs, if you compare these characters to characters from any of those awful shows, they STILL fall short of that dogshit goalpost. Nothing that I see gets me curious to know more about them. Rob is trying to rush to the crowdfund phase, but he doesn't seem to understand that you don't get to ask people for money too many times before they write you off completely. He should be working this stuff out and maybe posting drafts to social media to see what seems to resonate with people. Try throwing them in situations. Draw his characters as army guys. Draw them as the Beastie Boys. Draw them at the beach or whatever. It's an excuse to work out their personalities a bit more and figure out how each one would react in any given scenario. If they were characters in Mary Poppins, who would each character be? Or, at the very least, draw them in situations that allude to the "crazy scenarios" they'd get into. Get the audience wanting to know more. This sort of stuff also helps to build a fan base and by the time you're announcing a kickstarter, you'll have a built-in audience of people who have been following the progress and have been eagerly awaiting for a full episode to be made. Rob tells us that >"We blend the relatability of Seinfeld, the crudeness of South Park, and the wackiness of Smiling Friends into our show to create something unique in the indie animated space", but he doesn't fucking show us. It doesn't need to be animated, but he should fucking depict the type of relatable/crude/wacky scenarios they'd be in to sell this.
>>154238474Imagine not having an exec essentially demand that style, but CHOOSING to do that as a recent art school grad. Talk about setting your sights low.
>>154238086They all should be in hoodies, they need more ridiculous hairstyles. >that's just EddsworldPrecisely.
>>154238499>he should fucking depict the type of relatable/crude/wacky scenarios they'd be in to sell thisThe "wacky" scenario he has planned for the pilot is that they work at a fast food place. I'm not fucking kidding. Seriously, Adulting had a better premise than this dogshit.
>>154238512An art student today saw 90% beanmouth cartoons get greenlit their whole adolescence, the work itself unfortunately infected their aspirations.
>>154239414you're thinking of the average /co/tard. Art students studying animation at actually good schools are into dank-ass shit. They watch anime, they watch weird old eastern european films, they watch student films coming out of Asia or France or wherever. They know the cool shit coming out of Gobelins. They also study pre-code animation and stuff that existed before the mouse along with classic Loony Tunes, Disney, Bakshi, Bluth, etc. For four years, it's their entire fucking world and they get stuff not only from classes, but from other students as well. So it's fucking weird when this jockular meathead gets out of school and thinks, "ya know what I think would be fun to make? A show about three dickheads shooting the shit on a couch".
>>154239565There are plenty of art students who are mostly into mainstream stuff and their own interests no matter how many shorts the professor puts in front of them, if you were more of the type you describe or a teacher, you probably remember them driving you crazy with incuriosity, but they’re artists too.
>>154239565There was a timeline where he would have been making animated Joe Rogan segments
>>154239594>but they’re artists toofair. Maybe my friend group was just a bunch of art fags. You kind of put blinders up to the uninspired chuds. >There was a timeline where he would have been making animated Joe Rogan segmentsUnfortunately that would have been a viable option had he been a mid-generation millennial and started flooding the internet with rogan-based shorts and gags when Rogan was building his empire. He could have caught the wave and made a career making chud-mations.
>>154234642It's 4chan, you can say Nigger.
>>154232951shit looks like this, especially the one chimp man in Chimptopia. This "project" desperately needs a name change.
>>154239813At least that one knows its niche.
>>154232951>chimptopia>no blacksONE JOB
>>154232951>CHIMPTOPIAsounds like something Chris would come up with as a half-assed joke on oney plays
>>154239903>Tomar, what would you do if you moved into this really cheap apartment, I mean like, too good of a deal to pass up, but your landlord was this like monkey guy that was really particular about getting his rent on time?>I dunno, Zach, I guess I'd get a job at a fast food place to get my rent>What the fuck, seriously, Tomar? You'd get a job at a McDonald's?>Well, yeah, I gotta pay my->No, Tomar, dude, he's saying your landlord is a chimp guy->Your landlord is a chimp guy and he's SUPER particular about rent, like, SUPER particular
>>154239287>The "wacky" scenario he has planned for the pilot is that they work at a fast food place....and what is the problem here?
>>154239813This guy’s also trying to make his own pilot. I refuse to link it, it’s too cringe.
>>154232951Is this like a chuddy version of Eddsworld or something?
>>154240353A lot of shows use that setting. Spongebob's first episode was centered around him trying to land a job at a fast food joint. Dude's already got an uphill battle to stand out against like 50% of cartoons out there.
