254 - Eyes On the Ball

El Cid

on Sept. 23, 2018

This animation was a reader request to see some sexy time with Commander Benny Ortega. I figured it was only fair that, since our totally not copyright infringing cartoon scientist character missed out on his scheduled scene with Jetta earlier in the year, we should throw him in for this one.

Of course, I immediately regretted that decision, and was reminded why I didn't use the buggy cartoon scientist character that other time: there's this weird glitch where after I'm done animating him, I'll save the file and then I come back and the animation is off a bit, like his arms aren't bending exactly the way they were when I saved the file, that sort of thing. That's annoying enough, but when you're animating two characters together and everything needs to fit super close, that's a real problem. So, if you're wondering why he has that jittery thing going on with his left hand, that's from me trying to manually fix his animation frame by frame, and screwing it up, and then my screwed up fixes not saving properly, because Cartoon Scientist is a buggy sumbitch. Or, we can just pretend he's having a seizure. Whatever works for you!






PAGE RECAP

Wow, Woody's hardcore! With the security matrix thoroughly compromised, she completes the sabotage by blowing the control room to smithereens, leaving Osprey in control of the dock security apparatus and Zombie Ula in control of the Diablo, with a few thousand Hiroshimas' worth of engine power at her disposal. Things just went from bad to catastrophic.

All hope is not lost, though. We still have cadet Avram on board the Diablo. He might yet save the day. Hey, it could happen!

You'll see what happens next week. See ya then!
