[Hot Dog Eating Contest]

I actually voted five...

...on a Wonchop animation.
I liked this, man. Major props to you.

Wonchop responds:

Heh thanks.

[Pico's Time Tank]

One of the best Pico submissions I've seen so far.

Both of you, Toonimated and Swain, have always been quite talented at laying out a story, even in your randomness.

The animation and art, oh how I loved them. You both did well. Pacing was a little iffy. Character art wasn't as consistent as usual for you, but overall very polished.

Loved it.

Happy Pico Day.

The-Swain responds:

The slowest moment in the 'toon, aside from the intro and conclusion, is probably when Pico first arrives at the pirate ship. He's not fighting them off tooth and nail as he falls from the sky, but 3 minutes and 40 seconds of animating straight action is so taxing on our need to be "storytellers" that we had to slip a modicum of character development in there :) Naturally, this is out of place in an action cartoon, but hey, what can ya do?

And I'm sure you'll forgive us on the changing nature of Pico's artwork. We didn't animate the whole thing in chronological order, and as this is the first time either of us has animated this character, improvements and mistakes were to be expected over time.

Also, large investments in software come after we make the money to buy it, not before :)

Thanks for another review, ST :D I must now go and review today's other Pico submissions too.

[Castle III part D]

Wow.

IT'S OVER!?!
Thousands of fans around the world just rose up and cried a "Noooooooo!" that would put Darth Vader to shame.

You've got a cinematic quality series here. Incredible work.
Keep it going.

I want more. Give it to me.

Get-lost responds:

It's not over. Just takes a while for next part ;)

Thanks

[Turkeys]

It was clean and polished animation. I enjoyed it.
A short and simple cartoon, and a good one.

RWappin responds:

Thanks, toady man!

[Mario and The Lost Coin]

You guys did great. It was excellent.
One of those nice little things you watch during your break.
Excellently parodied Mario.
Usually, I'm very much against the usage of sprites in flash movies. However, in this case, it wasn't just some animators wanting to get out of having to do real work- it was part of the whole effect.
Great job.

CIA responds:

ahha thanks. This means good coming from someone as good as you.
