No words for this one. You continue to improve and impress in every aspect of animation. The fight scene between Cas and the brute captain has to be one of the best animated mega construx scenes I have every seen. Not to mention the outstanding amount of detailing that went into the set, and the incredible story itself. Can't wait for the next part!

[@fallable]

I can not stress this enough, but you’re improving drastically. The quality of the animation, attention to details, techniques, story, set design.. the list goes on. You never fail to impress me! I love the drama, and tension between the ODSTs and Cas. It really ties it together. The fight between Cas and The Commander was also amazing. I really like how you didn’t make it super quick, and actually showed how Cas was of equal strength to The Commander. Thank you for letting me help you with this. I can’t wait to see what you do with the next part.

[@ClicStudio]

I thought you couldn't get better, only could get better quality witth time but I was wrong, you're animations keep getting better and better and storywise too! I already loved the series but now you seem to know excactly where you're going with all of this and it looks much cleaner and it's easier to understand the story, even if it was already pretty easy to follow. You just keep getting better and I can't wait for more! Hope we can callaborate again in the future:P

[@motocoops]

I really like how u did the rain effect bro, that’s awesome

[@TheCitedAviator]

Cool ranch

[@rushingriverfilms]

I went back and watched all the other related stopmotions, so I could come into this one with the most amount of background knowledge. I love how the story has been built up, and how the plot and characters of the marines story, have joined with the planet Qutari story. I don’t know how you managed to create such a well thought out story, but it’s awesome. Aside from the story, the animation in this is incredible, and there is a lot of improvement compared to the first planet Qutari film. There’s also a lot of nice details and touches. Like when Daniels got shot in the leg again, or when Davis hallucinated and saw a jackal as Maverick. I also like that during the battle sequence, the camera had a constant slight shake, to show how chaotic the battle was. Great job, this is an incredible animation Badlaxe

[@badlaxeanimations3205]

I’m very happy you went back to watch the full storyline! It makes the final experience worth it. I’ve honestly made most of this story up as I went but as I proceeded through the storyline I started coming up with it in more detail. I’m also happy someone pointed out the small details in the battle scene. It really makes it worth it. I hope I can improve it and make it even better in the future :) thanks for the comment Rushing.

[@rushingriverfilms]

ya no problem, it was fun to see some of the older stop motions in the storyline

[@lime4593]

I just want to say that this series is one of the best groups of halo stop motions out there and definitely my favorite for many reasons. It’s also really inspired me to make some stop motions of my own. Congratulations on doing such a great job on this masterpiece.

[@JJTheSpartan_117]

Hey badlaxe, I have come questions. #1: would you ever consider doing a tutorial on the Quatari team? I think many of your other viewers would like a video like that. I think it'd be kind of cool for people that really like your characters. #2: would you ever consider doing a collection video? The chances for this one are kinda slim considering you have a ton of customs. A lot of your figures are mix matched, such as the Quatari team. But I think some of the curious people, such as I(mainly just me)would like to see your Mega Construx collection. #3: what's your favorite ice cream flavor? Mines Mocha Almond Fudge or Death by Chocolate. I'm kinda conflicted since they're both SOOOOOOOO good. But you mind telling me your favorite? I'm guessing Rocky Road but maybe something more unique. Please answer my questions so I can get on with my lonely, and boring, quarantine...so please tell me.

[@badlaxeanimations3205]

#1 I may do a tutorial on the Qutari team but I’m not entirely sure, I’m sort of interested in doing some tutorials on rain and my effects first but doing a tutorial on the Qutari team does seem a bit interesting. #2 I’ve never given much thought to a collection video. I guess I’m indifferent. If I feel I should do it I will. #3 my favorite ice cream is mint chocolate chip, however cookies and cream is what I’ve been having the most of lately. They’re both really good. Thanks for the comment :)

[@JJTheSpartan_117]

Thanks for taking the time of your day to answer my questions, It really means a lot! Now that that's done I'm going back into cryo sleep until this all blows over, hopefully I don't wake up in 2555 and I'm the last human on earth. Might be interesting but then I won't have your sweet sweet animations.

[@jacobnathan5595]

I must say your improvements are immeasurable. You've gotten so much better and these videos get more and more pleasing to watch. And the story. The story is polished, its thought out, and it's completely away from the canon, which means no restraint on you to live up to the canon. Good shit man, great job.

[@otonworldproductions]

10:15 That marines helmet turned into an ODST helmet. Is that a hallucination of the guilt of Reynolds death haunting him and that one of his teammates could die in this mission? If so then Davis has become one messed up guy

[@badlaxeanimations3205]

Yep, he’s hallucinating from his overwhelming guilt.

[@JJTheSpartan_117]

Again, when I was asleep...I watched it though and I can only say one thing: FRIGGIN BADLAXE YOUVE DONE IT AGAIN! the animation was so buttery smooth and the fight scene between Cas and the Commander and how the hierarchs made him betray him, OOOOOHHH. And then the part where the team opened the door, OOooh wait minute, it ended there? Again with the terrible CLIFFHANGER but I'm not complaining. You really outdid yourself my friend and I hope you know you're my favorite Animator for this very reason. You continue to surpass your own limits every time. You did it with Marines, which gave you valuable experience. You then built off that and here you are. Another thing I like about you is the way you portray war. You put it in the sense that nobody gets out without loss, each opposing factor, good or bad, losses something. Like the scece with the GOSH DARN RAIN, MMMMMMMM, and how you tell how many Marines were KIA and how many were injured. You've showed me that there is a cost of war, nobody gets out without a scratch or two. And now I'll discuss the part that I was looking forward too, THE FIGURES. I like how you replaced James's armour, it's the exact same figure just in new articulation. And I saw that you've really increased your collection. You have the old rookie, I think some other figures like brutes, and some more Halo 3 Marines. I know you got Marine Defense because you had the darker skinned marine. And you probably got some A New Dawn marines. I'm glad you got these, their some of my favorite figures and I hope you enjoy them too! Now with all that said, I'm going to go eat. Everything else like the lighting and voices, has already been said. I just woke up 30 minutes ago and I'm pretty darn hungry. So great animation Badlaxe, really great a animation, and I'll see you later

[@uh_matix]

I really love the first combat scene, I just love how hectic the opening to it is, it's really like how I'd imagine this sort of fight in real life. You're probably the best at creating stop motion action Scenes they're always so hectic but you take the time to show off certain people at certain times, I also love how just spontaneous some things could be, like when the warthog hit land mine and bullets start flying. Anyways Badlaxe Love your creations.

Good job man! You are improving so fast! Keep it up!

[@badlaxeanimations3205]

[@ToonBros]

Outstanding job! This one already topped the previous parts. This series just keeps getting better. Love the character interactions in beginning. I’m interested to see how Davis will deal with his PTSD as the series goes on. Btw poor Daniels and James. They always seem to get injured in every film.

[@otonworldproductions]

If I’m correct, we never actually hear Rook’s name before he was an ODST, he was just called Sarge. Cuz in the last episode in marines the guy on the radio said if he wanted a nick name and Sarge said he wanted Rook as his nickname, we know that Reynolds name was always Reynolds since he was called that in marines and continued to use it even though he was an ODST until his sad death. Same thing with Daniels. We also don’t know if the other ODSTs like Davis, James, Liam, and Maverick(deceased member) are just nick names for them, or those names are their actual names.

[@badlaxeanimations3205]

In Marines he is addressed as Gunnery Sergeant Raymond 3 times in Second Platoon and he’s called Raymond once in Supply Route. As far as Ambush is concerned though you’re right. He’s only called Sarge or Sir.

[@otonworldproductions]

I don’t agree with either of you. Badlaxe, you put yourself too low against most animators. You are one of the best and you cannot Deny it. You’re a great story teller, matching storytelling talent with Alexis, but your animation against him crushes Alexis. Stinger is almost catching up to you in animation wise but his story telling will never be as complex as yours. Axiology may be experiences and might have even given you tips, but most of his stop motions are tests and have no story telling to them, your animation is also a lot better than his. Wyoming has story telling on his side and animation, but I believe you two are matching. Mootroid is also on your level in story telling, but I think his animation is a bit lesser than yours since he uses blur and possibly frame blending to make his animation look a lot better. And finally W2daERN, he is very irrelevant in this discussion. You need to know that you are very good, so stop thinking you are a peasant to them.
