Mercz - 19-2000 [SFM]

Oh man this was a lot harder than I thought it would be. Probably not smart to make such a big project on something I know I won't be able to monetize, but I make shillings from youtube anyway so whatever. Also, my Patreon supporters are my lifeline anyway, so thanks to them I can make things like this.
Also, thank you to Dio_joestar for editing his Jeep model to have moving wheels, and a SUPER BIG THANKS to DrClay999 for the road model. Without him I couldn't make curved roads which would have made this video near impossible. Check out his stuff, he's great!: kzbin.info
If you'd like to support me and my content, you can do so here: www.patreon.com/googleygareth
And I mostly hang around my twitter here: Gt118
What's next? Who knows! All I know is I need a break real bad! Till next time.

The first time I saw this music video (the actual one) was during an excursion into early 2000s Adult Swim late-night programming, a consequence of the celebration-of-animation mantra that that program had made, and thankfully continues to make, it's calling card. It can be easy to forget, nowadays, with the explosion of burgeoning animators inherent during that magical time, as well as those that have persisted past it, that truly quality animations weren't always a dime a dozen outside of the maybe annual products of professional studios. I love that your channel has been a shining example of one of these quality creators for as long as you have, as well as taking inspiration and giving kudos to those precursor examples of such from the early(ish) years of Professional Animations Fuckery. Don't ever stop.
