FLASHGITZ FRIDAY 7/03 (Patreon)

Brothers! Welcome back to Flashgitz Friday! And let me be the first to say congratulations for making it to the end of the week! I know it couldn’t have been easy, even for a hard worker such as yourself, but you made it! Now for your reward: PRODUCTION UPDATES!!!

Your reaction to seeing the glorious radiance of Flashgitz Friday descending before thine very eyes. Start crying!

Today in my magic sack, I’ve brought for you Space King 5 updates and a peek at the latest episode coming out on the Tom and Don channel! Lucky you! Let’s kick things off with Space King 5.

Space King episode 5 has been coming along great! On top of making a few corrections here and there, we’ve been working on compositing and visual effects. Compositing basically means we’re combining the backgrounds, animation, visual effects, and adjusting the lighting so this thing can start looking like a full-fledged cartoon. And visual effects means– well, shan’t I say it?Take a look at some of the yummy shots I’ve brought for you today!

Your tithe has been put to good use. We’ve been smoking meats in the thuribles for after service.

As you’re about to be crushed by this 200,000 ton monstrosity, take a moment and appreciate the cool flames!

“What do you mean ‘they got him?’”

This shot had a few revisions since the last time I showed it off (particularly adding some glows from the sweet blue flames.) It’s your moral duty to let your jaw drop.People get trapped in thinking that swords are exclusively melee weapons. It all depends on how good of an arm you got!

You ever feel the urge to smash into motorcyclists when they do this on the freeway? No? Just me?

The Brap Hogs’ smokescreen maneuver. 

Take a minute to appreciate the dust cloud animation here. If you don’t, you might make our VFX guy cry.

Bryce is doing lame nerd shit when he should be out there CRACKING HEADS!!

Don’t those look sweet? Doesn’t it make you want to violently ask where Episode 5 is on r/Spaceking? Well I won’t stop you! In addition to episode 5, we’ve been hard at work putting other super top-secret projects for you to enjoy in due time! So thank you for being patient, Brothers, and keep looking forward to Space King 5 and everything else yet to come!

But if you’re still having a hard time waiting, there’s always the Tom and Don channel! This week on Tom and Don, we’re back to discuss more Warhammer 40k! This time it’s… wait. Am I reading this right? A Salamanders video? Goddammit.

In all seriousness, between mocking the Salamander’s sissy attitude in the grimdark universe and comparing their quest for relics to Dragon Balls, this video came out to be one of our best yet. Here, have a peek at the episode!

Those who live in the darkest conditions create the brightest art. 

Okay smart guy, YOU try describing how Vulkan regained his sanity without falling asleep!

After this wholesome Reddit chungus moment, I kind of want horrible things to happen to our editor.

Go check out the latest video on the Tom and Don channel! Not only is it hilarious, but it’s a great way into dipping your toes into becoming a certified hater.

Well, Brothers, that’s all I have for you today! I hope you’re feeling plenty nourished until our next Flashgitz Friday! And of course I would never forget to thank our Brothers, Greedy Brothers, and VERY Greedy Brothers for your continued support! Space King couldn’t possibly exist without your contributions. And I’m not talking about money here. You guys have helped create an entire community filled with art, discussions, theories, and countless memes! That’s not something money can buy. So from the bottom of our cold hideous black hearts, thank you! I’d give you a smooch but my lips are dry from that long spiel.

Until next week, Brothers!

Praise Be!

Now let’s dig into some fan art, shall we?

A beautiful piece of Captain expressing himself by ลิเดีย สเต็ท from Facebook. You’ve given the Blip Blaps the perfect amount of sorrow in their eyes.

A sick painting of Bryce by u/soft_s0fi on Reddit. Bryce could be such a badass if he wasn’t such a dick all the time.

Chestnut offers you some Globules by u/Jellyfishsushinigiri on Reddit. Would you take them? Unfortunately you’d have to insert them yourself. There’s a pair of scissors on the table over there…

Thank you, Brothers! Until next week,

Praise Be!
