AssBlaster SNPC Animations

Probably the fastest I've managed to do something like this, and yet I'm pretty satisfied.
Here, folks, are the animations for the "AssBlaster" NPC for GarrysMod, part of the Tremors lifecycle. This time the Model, texture and animations are 100% my handiwork, unlike the Graboid and Shrieker, in which I was helped by Stratos and Frito Master in the texturing process before I learned the skill myself.
The AssBlaster is from "Tremors 3", and is the final stage in the development of the Graboid species, so named for the chemically-induced aft-projected bio-combustion (or, in laymans terms, the flames it fire out of its ass) it uses both as a defense mechanism, and to launch itself skyward where it can glide and more effectively hunt.
These NPCs are being coded by Silverlan, and will be made publicly available for your enjoyment once finished.
Tremors, Graboids, Shriekers and AssBlasters are all the property of Universal, and not mine.
Also, the music here is "Why Not Tonight?", sung by Reba McEntire, and played over the ending credits of "Tremors". I don't own her either.

I love the way you captured even the way these guys were animated in the films. This is super faithful, and awesome.

[@JJMDude]

Yes, the ragdolls on Workshop ARE uploaded by me, and they do in fact come with the animation smd's built in. They're not SNPC's yet, because Silverlan hasn't decided to code them yet. I work according to his timetable. He's a busy guy with a lot of projects, and I'm nobody to tell him to hurry along.

[@fubukikagerou7871]

has something been decided?

[@malagulo5302]

Wow! These NPCS are like a BEGINNING LEGEND! They're so AFTERSHOCKING! When these come out, I'll have to send them BACK TO PERFECTION!

[@MrNarutoStorm3]

You've come a long way bro. I saw your ed edd n eddy one was amazing. :)

[@nikspicer7263]

1:08 Jesus Christ, we're gonna get farted to death by a fictional monster. o-o

[@zerer6911]

1:15 fire fart

[@hydras2danewbunch]

LOL...In the first movie Kevin Bacon yells to the Graboid "Can you fly, you suckah?" at the end. And now, they can. It's even more ironic than Burt blowing up his house.

[@furyunleash22]

Funny how you used a Reba song when she played a character in the first movie. XP

[@JJMDude]

That was kinda the idea. it's also the song that plays over the ending credits.

[@furyunleash22]

I was kinda expecting the music choice to be intentional. Lol.

[@digitaleventhorizons]

I hope they release this at all. The literal only Tremors SNPC is the Graboid, but I still hope that they do release this on the Steam Workshop!

[@thedustyredneck]

when can I see a movie made out of these lol, im a huge fan.

[@imaluigi89]

epic , tremors is awesome , awesome animation , congrats , deserves more views

[@JJMDude]

Close enough that no matter what I do from here on in, the coder has everything he actually NEEDS to make SNPCs. I'm mostly doing weapons, a map, gibs, a Burt, and maybe some alternate skins (for say, an El Blanco Graboid, or a Stumpy Graboid). Aside from map models (because I'm modelling Chang's Market for my final), that's to wait until school is out and I'm not bogged down with responsibilities. What sucks is I never get to SEE the coder's progress, so I don't know how it's coming.

[@JJMDude]

@Connor Dingess Even if I were still working on these, I refuse to do that. The Netflix Tremors sequels are in-name-only trash that insult the Tremors series as a whole. Apart from trashing Burt Gummer's character and forcing me to see him pissed on, and his septuagenarian ass in a patient's gown, it breaks all the established rules and redesigns the creatures into totally generic CG monsters with none of the design hallmarks or style. Not to mention, for creatures always designed with some kind of real-life biology in mind, the "African" thresher maws (I refuse to call them Graboids) totally jump the shark and stop making any sense with the TONGUES being detachable and independent. That's stupid, and evolutionarily impossible. As far as I'm concerned, they're not canon.

[@Fixtionmaster101]

I prefer gasblaster, because that's a name that's clean and appropriate for the kids.

[@Itsshan03]

Fixtionmaster101 this was 5 years ago but kids should not be watching this...

[@chaysereis1637]

0:41 my 6 year old self when my mom finished making Mac n cheese

[@Bananappleboy]

I didnt know they can glide...

[@no1tweaker]

Any idea when the npcs will be released

[@hadassahsizemore6127]

The flame attack!! XD

[@thezman9001]

that's why its called the a blaster....

[@kytokumera7806]

when can we expect to see these npc in gmod (if there not already in)

[@blaze.d3502]

who would win shreiker or assblaster

[@randomanimations2996]

Go Rebaaaaaa!!🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@johnmartin1309]

the one thats on the steam workshop has the gibs then I know that one for sure

[@101010wardog]

it would be intressting if you did some combine and metro police

[@hankj.wimbleton7201]

oh nice to know,but anyway good work and animation btw is this really gmod org?

[@johnmartin1309]

There are gibs. go to garrsmod.org search tremors find the most recent one it has gibs in it :)

[@azumek9076]

Have you ever thought about doing a game? It would be cool to be a graboid/shrieker/assblaster and go out killing humans XD;; Kind of like the jaws games? You should look into the rights and try, maybe you could get a bit of money if you work with their company? Idk I just know it would be amazing!

[@ryanks1004]

hi im making a tremors game and i was wondering if you could send me models for graboid, shreaker and ass blasters? , i will place you in credits and say who the models belong to ( for unity )

[@oscarcarmona7476]

My family calls them Buttblaster

[@Enrecave]

So Awsome.

[@glasswhisperer]

Did anything ever come of this game?

[@GARRYSMOOD]

I like gibs... can you make some gib tests if you have time?

[@MCWproductions-pb4op]

would you ever consider selling your models or giving them to people? just wondering for a personal project

[@JJMDude]

Well Universal owns Tremors, so selling would be hella illegal. My models are available as packs on the gmod steam workshop. Probably have to use some outside website to get at the archive files, but it's all there.

[@MCWproductions-pb4op]

@@JJMDude thank you for the info, love your stuff 👍

[@epicxbonejordak]

when is it gonna be complete

[@bloodevil9998]

You're a great animator. when will I be able to use these as Npcs???? c;

[@DatDoubleV]

when do u plan to make enough code to give more animations for the gmod graboids and put in the shrieker and the assblaster?

[@JJMDude]

"Make enough code"? The models HAVE all the necessary animations. Animations are packed into the model files. It has nothing to do with code. The guy who made the current NextBot on the workshop started coding it on his own, and I have very little input on the features he changes/adds and when he updates them. My advice though? Ask creators what they DO plan to add. Never ask a creator "WHEN." Unless you're dealing with a studio, you're not going to get a set date. They finish when they find time and are capable of finishing. That's how life goes when creation is a hobby, not a JOB.

[@MCGospels]

Whats the Addon?

[@PyroRaptor1]

Epic

[@Bishopisalive888]

Will these be in the Workshop soon?

[@mjrocks477]

Best question yet

[@thomasjohnson3481]

Lil Latex yes

[@laranjaghirga5058]

Yeah haise yes

[@Plasmaggie]

So, ah, how close is this to completion?

[@cat64goo]

It's not available

[@bobsmith8405]

not in workshop

[@2d_raptor371]

What happened to this mod?

[@2001matty]

Reba song I see what u did there

[@grunt_boi]

add this to gmod plz

[@JJMDude]

They're hermaphrodites; by definition, they have no gender and don't partake in any sexual rituals. How does your description apply?

[@rusty13th16]

Dang

[@JJMDude]

Oh, I offered constructive criticism to your video, so you come to one of mine spewing vitriol? You can take your childish attitude and go fuck yourself with it, because I will NOT tolerate this level of immaturity.

[@dukienukie3071]

Hey make a gmod mod for this I would really like it I would comment "best mood ever you need it!!!!!"

[@dukienukie3071]

And also make a pill pack for it too

[@tyrantisproductions3619]

The graboid made it to the gmod workshop and I guess the Shrieker and AssBlaster are soon to follow.

[@JJMDude]

I didn't "talk shit" about your video. I actually complimented your animation, while noting your blendshapes/morph targets could use adjusting. THAT is called a CRITIQUE. And YOU reacted to it in such a childish manner that I can actually scarcely believe it. Grow the fuck up, grow some thicker fucking skin, and learn to accept criticism in a professional manner, or NOBODY will respect you regardless of your talent. You will NEVER improve if you react to constructive critique with hostility.
