MAG174 animatic

[@marcosgpaya1018]

I always imagined Simon falling in an airplane chair. Like he got ejected

[@nortalian549]

I never imagined it with any sort of vehicle. I just imagined he had the ability to just fling himself through the air at high speeds at will. Like shooting a rubber band. This landing was less refined than probably was normal, because as he said he “only just noticed them.”

[@zomg-rofl]

@@nortalian549 yeah i literally thought he just fell from the sky. not even gracefully like he just slammed down out of nowhere.

[@eugene4202]

SAME. LIKE, JUST A FLYING CHAIR, idk why

[@mcr00kes]

Simon arriving by plane in such dramatic fashion, followed by him daintily getting out was brilliant!

[@figthegiant4065]

Tbh I always imagined him just barrelling out of the void like a comet and smacking down into the ground, only to strut out of the crater

[@mcr00kes]

@@figthegiant4065 Likewise, but the inagery of him just bombing down to earth in random vehicles amuses me.

[@hoeyinwong5087]

@@figthegiant4065 Same, but now i'll forever see him crashing in on a plane XD

[@JalapenoJ0e]

When I first heard this episode I actually imagined him emerging from a pile of people and leaving by sprouting wings

[@ninereeds1810]

actually i DO think simon fairchild was fully justified in everything he did due to being nice and charming and fun

[@iamtrash5011]

soo true

[@v3n71lat0r]

he was so full of charismatic whimsy so i think he deserved to have a bit of fun (helping to end the world)

[@Protoplanetary_Dust]

Agreed

[@zomg-rofl]

ive been saying this

[@meatygameplays]

i really love how "junior" is a giant tornado monster instead of a giant human shape titan. i don't have a problem with having "junior" be human shaped but him being a giant tornado is a really cool idea i haven't seen before

[@asdrubalvect6328]

Well Tornadoes would fit with the "Some massive, terrible and *indifferent* thing is chasing you." facet of the Vast's portfolio.

[@RandomBrowser347]

This whole thing is incredible, but the way you animated Simon's _"Byeeeeeeee!"_ was just comedy gold.

[@someoneawesome8717]

He says Byeee like an Owl House character lmao

[@figthegiant4065]

Didn’t he say _Wheeeeee_ 💀 That’s what I heard

[@hoeyinwong5087]

It is exactly how i imagined it XD

[@WraythSkitzofrenik]

I'll admit, that made me laugh even if I wanted him dead

[@The-Eye866]

I’m glad someone finally animated my favorite demigod grandpa

[@MaxNielson-n3v]

im giggling becuase thats genuinely exactly how i eimagined him exiting. just jumping REALLY REALLY HIGH and away

[@tirone7520]

my favourite thing about it is the second hand embarrassment when martin was pushing for some smiting, jon is hesitating and simon skeedadles. the entire work is excellent

[@paradoxical7782]

in which the worlds most whimsical eldritch abomination pisses off god’s boyfriend to the point of homicide

[@paradoxical7782]

anyway ur art is peak i love how shape it is

[@justjjamn4952]

omg I love everything about how you interpreted this scene. from the plane to the weird hand tornado things to Simon spinning wildly out of control to escape 😂😂😂

[@jennifervan75]

The BYYYEEEE was one of my favourite parts omg

[@Uninteresting88]

Because he is so whimsical and silly, in my mind, simon fairchild never has done anything wrong ever

[@corginamedollie]

He climbed out of the crashed airplane like nothing happened

[@CreminyWaffle]

3:49 5 stars I love this video this moment cracked me tf up and seeing it animated in your style only elevates it

[@kelseysmith3220]

I love Peter’s lil thumbs up quickly turning into a thumbs down when Elias arrives

[@jollysnail4394]

i loved Seeing simon fairchild just spin into the sky

[@destiny5321]

The way they make all of their antagonistic characters really funny and charismatic is so good

[@InfiniteAnvil]

I love the way you make Helen's mouth twist when she talks, it's so good

[@Anti-Gravity.]

The way he leaves lmao Just spins away I love it

[@beanteaboy5534]

can't get over how you drew Jon's "i know everything he's done" moment, 10/10

[@revolutionofthekind]

Oh it is so good to see this seen drawn out like this. Simonnis such a delight, and the way you drew their body language and expressions is so spot on.

[@notveryfish]

the way you draw expressions is so wonderful .... if i close my eyes and think really hard i can punch that little elias in his loins!!!! and ofc your linework and stylisation. this animatic is like a soup i want to swirl around and around in a mug

[@karakuliiii]

TY!!! And Elias really deserves it haha

[@Clod-nc7vh]

3:20 I LAUGHED SO HARD I CHOKED

[@JaamKidd69]

As a guy who would obsessively watch all the tma animations i could for a solid like, 2 years, this is %100 one of the best ive seen

[@karakuliiii]

Ahaha thanks!! Same though, i still scour for more lol

[@SelmaForrester]

The perspective of his left foot slowly drifting backwards at 3:08 without the need of a new drawing to show it is a top tier storyboard technique, well done!!!!

[@aryn3083]

Simon Fairchild: “pity” 😢

[@tyl3rs0ngisc0nfus3d]

Okay, 1) this is an exceptional animatic, I loved every bit of this, this is something to be proud of. 2) I love the image of Simon slowly crashing a plane as his entrance over the boring "super Saiyan" landing I'd been picturing in my head. 😂

[@monkeychief1904]

I LOVE HOW HE JUST CLIMBS OUT OF THE PLANE CRASH HAHA Edit: your Helen design OMG LOVEE how you animated her!!! So expressive and fun

[@MsMagnolia97]

One of the best depictions of Helen I've ever seen. Well done. :D

[@ottz_]

This is so fantastic!! I like how in boards where Jon says "I" often little eyes pop up on his face! idk if that was a thing but my brain snagged onto it regardless and thinks this is so cool regardless!!!

[@ceaseless_spiral_avatar]

THAT “byeeeeeee” ANIMATION IS ACTUALLY THE GREATEST, IM FUCKING DECEASED 😭

[@TheNightbean]

By far my favorite Helen design

[@waverlyaltis7171]

This is one of my favorite scenes (and Simon is one of my favorite characters) and there are too few animatics of it! This absolutely does it justice. I always pictured Simon just cannonballing into the ground, but the plane is so much fun and extra. I love the Midwestern feel of this Vast domain, with the corn and the Great Beast tornado-it really conveys that sense of wide open emptiness, and the scale and unstoppable power of a tornado fits perfectly here. I love the more cartoon aspects, like the words appearing above Simon and the ghosts of Peter and Elias-really fits with Simon’s charm and humor. The shot at 2:46 is just gorgeous (as are most shots here). Just so good!

[@peeb6412]

Helen looks exceptionally fun with this style

[@therainbowtea18]

This is my favorite thing ever

[@karakuliiii]

Thank youu😭

[@brentacomoose]

I love Simon. He just seems like he's having a grand ol time

[@CamilleChauTempsDesCerises]

We only had two episodes with Simon, yet this man is an icon ! Thank you for your work. You truly nailed it 💅

[@nezyry2861]

Omg this is gorgeous!!! I absolutely love the expressions and animation is so well done!! This needs to be viral.

[@karakuliiii]

Thank you!! I love drawing thosr silly expressions haha

[@nyxia8446]

I kinda imagined him peter panning through the sky at extreme speed, but standing up holding a little cane. The beginning I imagined as a thor like landing. Rocketing through the vast sky at super speed and catapulting into the ground.

[@lilytomalin2685]

I always just imagined Simon free falling from the sky, no airplane, just jumping down like a wingless seagull on steroids

[@sindrisuncatcher653]

I really like your Hellen. She's so... pointy!

[@skirm.the.terrible]

This is LOVELY!!! The expressions, the movement, Jon’s little existential Eye crisis moments, everything is so much fun!

[@PhoenixFlight8D]

Omfg the tornado is SUCH a COOL idea!!! Im guessing its somewhat inspired by the Dead man Walking photo but the concept of multivoticied tornados in general??? Simon treats it like a kid and its so freaking good ITS A LITERAL WALKING TORNADO

[@karakuliiii]

Whoaah i haven't actually heard of Dead man walking photo haha!! But it looks really cool. But i don't think i came up with this tornado by myself, i was probably inspired by something else lol!! (Can't remember what though)

[@vkgamimg8493]

I love how you distort and twist helen when she arrives on screen, a depiction fit for a spiral

[@subernabur8648]

i LOVE everything about this, ESPECIALLY the way you drew helen, absolutely flawless

[@ljw3544]

3:20 that is NOT how imagined him leaving I AM CRYING LAUGHING LMFAO

[@alecxexists3046]

This is soo pretty I love your art style and the camera placement :D

[@karakuliiii]

Thank you!! i really wanted to be creative with the camera, so im glad it worked out :)

[@Ar_art_1]

im obsessed with thsi esp how u draw helens expression just everything is perfect

[@leaholson2548]

I just finished this episode today and oh my LORD this is phenomenal :DDDD makes me so happy you NAILED all of the designs!! the facial expressions!! simon's 'BYEEEEEEEE'!! jon and his E Y E S. god this was so good. i love them all. also love how the only thing to have color was helen, made her feel super unique!!!

[@karakuliiii]

Haha, thank you so much!!!! I'm glad someone noticed Helens' color, lol

[@gioponti0893]

This is actually incredible oml

[@ocho_draws]

GOD THIS IS SO GOOODD their expressions n simons fling away oh ym godd, also adore ur helen shes so cute i love her

[@Lily-xg3ss]

i could watch this so many times, the character designs and the movements and the expressions are all perfect

[@floafy567]

DUDE. ALL OF YOUR FRAMING CHOICES ARE LIKE,, INCREDIBLE??? I WOULDNT BE SURPRISED IF YOU WERE A STORYBOARD ARTIST your work looks PROFESSIONAL

[@k.t.4613]

The thumbnail of this video crack me up. Helen looks like she's going "damn relationship drama am I right?" at jonmartin 😂

[@BlouieBee]

I forgot how much I love this scene! Thank you!!!

[@karakuliiii]

Glad to remind you haha!!

[@m3rryg0ld]

oh i am Obsessed with this!! i love your artstyle and how fun this scene is through a more humorous lens

[@SeerOfTime577]

I cannot tell you how much I love seeing animatics for this scene; it is one of my favorites. Your art style is WONDERFUL. ❤❤❤

[@sucrecube]

HDJSBDKFB THIS IS INCREDIBLE you depict the characters in such a charming way

[@broski_474]

the expressions for all of the characters are actually so accurate, I don't think i've found many other tma animatics that have their expressions and general designs quite as close to how I imagine them as this one does

[@cataclysmcrows]

the magnus archives is a comedy

[@Librarymoth]

FAVORITE SILLY OLD MAN

[@afterglow87]

the movement is so fluid i am obsessed

[@bethgreeff7172]

Junior in the back?? Amazing

[@captaincrazycreative]

Aaahhh i love your art! The characters look so cute and expressive in your style! Martin's "im so done with this guy rn" is my new favorite thing

[@hmmno1035]

LMAO this is so good. the expressions are wonderful and the visual gags are so good!!!!!

[@angelofmusic1992]

This scene was already pretty funny, but you made it ten times funnier. This is freaking hilarious 😂

[@disnagburnazog9552]

i keep rewatching just for how helen is animated

[@disnagburnazog9552]

the "metaphysically explode" frames

[@e.j.kharris7569]

I loved this part! I always pictured he just fell very promptly from a couple thousand feet in the air and leaves a giant crater in his wake. Then promplty climbs out and greets Jon and Martin.

[@nacho6438]

Helen is animated SO well and the expressions for each and everyone are so good

[@PinkelotjeArt]

Your style is absolutely perfect, they characters look so good

[@fiaistired]

this is incredible!! what a hilarious series of events and you captured them PERFECTLY!! love it so much

[@mungbean7649]

yess this is my favorite interpretation of them I've seen !!!

[@IncaseImakeit]

3:19 THE WHEEZE I WHEEZED

[@dizzyllve2217]

this is absolutely Incredible. thank you so much for animating this scene

[@carterBrained]

I did an animatic to the same audio clip a while back, I love your take on it! I love the way you drew the characters, especially martin's shaggy hair, and the monster. :DD

[@karakuliiii]

Oh hey, i saw it!! It's really cool, haha. I even watched it while making my own, for my head to stay focused lol. Thank you sm!!

[@carterBrained]

@@karakuliiii also i would have appreciated if you would have asked me or credited me after taking inspiration :3

[@karakuliiii]

@carterBrained I may have worded it weirdly, but i didn't exactly take inspiration, i just wanted to see how different people imagined this scene and how i would've done it in their place? I don't know if I'm making sense, but sorry for the confusion? I really don't know how to talk to people (especially in english lol) sorry haha

[@indigocrayon8717]

Hell yeah this looks so cool! I love your designs for everyone.

[@flipflops6269]

THIS IS INCREDIBLE I love the way you capture the characters’ personalities in such a dynamic way! Made me laugh out loud

[@ElementalofAir]

My favorite line... "Pity." The way he blocks the camera and the look on his face lol

[@quantumblauthor7300]

Love how helen drifts out of frame, genuinely disorienting

[@snrkbol]

I’m literally obsessed with this- you like perfectly characterized and encapsulated this whole scene and each of their mannerisms- also the way Helen moves is stellar and she is my door wife 🚪

[@allofashes]

i love your artstyle goodness ,, the expressions are so so good

[@karakuliiii]

TY!!

[@LilienNacht]

this is brilliantly done. i had so much fun watching this. it had me in stitches

Now this, this really is a good adaptation into animation of a TMA money thank-you

[@professionalrockeater]

[@Miremel1505]

This is so great, you did such a wonderful job portraying all the emotion and all the fricking comedy of this whole scene!

This is absolutely perfect! Completely matched the podcast. I loved Helen, loved the murdery escape part. This is just *chef’s kiss*

[@thatonegirl3391]

Simon is blasting of againnnnnnn! He’s so silly I love him
