I love how this ties into Swift Strike. What a quality animation. Well done!

[@hollowsteel]

I’m glad you noticed the connection!

[@SonicJohn117]

Super fluid animation. That was so good!!

[@arktosempire]

Good, very good

[@DafterThings]

Really good quality for a LOT of animating. Loved the colouring and voices.

[@RND3YT]

No way you used the space pirate music from metroid 👁👄👁 I'm so happy right now

[@hollowsteel]

I was tempted to use the Metroid prime 1 version, but I liked the buildup that Metroid prime 2’s had.

[@MJOLNIR_studios]

I can only wish to produce animations of this quality at this rate. Love how you did the camo effect. It would be nice to have some backstory for the General but at least the dialouge hints at why he betrayed the Banished. Well done anyway.

[@hollowsteel]

Well, there is actually backstory for the general... I won’t say exactly where it is, but it has something to do with Pliskin, and a certain, past, animation.

[@MJOLNIR_studios]

@@hollowsteel Ah, of course, Swift Strike! Sorry for my ignorance.

[@hollowsteel]

@@MJOLNIR_studios it’s all good lol, I never really named the general in it until this animation lol.

[@ultraanimates687]

Love the fallout music.

[@user-kh4qw8jt5b]

Is so cool

[@stopmastervideo6139]

This is super cool

[@arbiter5519]

Always good.

[@crazedelite671]

Dude your Content is so amazing the way you get your figures to move is insane

[@proboanimations3767]

Amazing stop motion man, love the orange lighting it looks good, good smooth animation and that voice acting is cool

[@GalacticStuff]

Incredible

[@anonym_b3058]

this was exceptional man! and we even got some dialogue in it! truly good work

[@stzyspartan316]

I like it

[@M4teo.]

Good job!, Looks really smooth

[@LegoHalostudy]

Genial animación bro, sigue así

[@RapidActionAnimations]

Nice work man! Love the lighting, sets and angles. The only critisms I’d have is that some movements were a bit too fast (ex: figures jumping over obstacles) and some dialogue was not necessary (ex: the brute captain). Otherwise this must be your best videos. Nice work

[@hollowsteel]

How was the brute captain’s dialogue unnecessary?

[@RapidActionAnimations]

@@hollowsteel it was a bit distracting. He didn’t need to say all those things and could have said half or even nothing and conveyed the same message. That’s just my opinion although. Edit: I must say though, the rate at which you can push out such high quality pieces is insane. Your works have really improved not only in animation but in cinematography and you’ve truly worked hard to get here.

[@hollowsteel]

@@RapidActionAnimations thanks! I’ve been trying really hard to balance animation and school work, though I’m currently going to take a break from animating (Or at least not animate as often)

[@RapidActionAnimations]

@@hollowsteel don’t burn yourself out 😂

[@Havingsights4009me]

After the banished defeat they search the area if they missed any only to realize that a new type of threat emerge like a plaque

[@hollowsteel]

New threat... or maybe an old friend?

[@Havingsights4009me]

@@hollowsteel sure maybe idk this is your video

[@Havingsights4009me]

@@hollowsteel also I thought you were using the zombie Spartans

[@hollowsteel]

@@Havingsights4009me No, there’s no zombies at all

[@Havingsights4009me]

@@hollowsteel that yellow elite looks like a spartan zombie just to clear not the flood

[@thikimtuyennguyen1264]

I absolutely love the old articulation design mind if you do some animations with old articulation could be easier since it’s less articulation or harder because I don’t know the animation process

[@hollowsteel]

I think it would be hard considering that it’d be harder to properly maneuver them around, along with having them hold weapons and move their arms in a natural way.

[@JoeFilms5420]

Pretty cool animation, but does it have to have dialogue? Would have been cooler in pantomime. Actually, the music and sound was a bit distracting too, you could remove that. And while you're at it I think the colors distract from the central theme a bit. Once those are gone, do you think we could remove the animation too? That way there would be nothing distracting us from the central idea. ...wait no there's still a thumbnail. That'll have to go. Maybe the title, too. Then it'll be perfect!

[@thikimtuyennguyen1264]

Not gonna lie the marine with that spartan helmet kinda looks weird the metallic green noble 6 helmet would’ve made it so much better well atleast the helmet is kinda cool

[@victorsandoval4792]

Is this a sequel to swift strike?

[@hollowsteel]

More of a side story that takes place after it.

[@victorsandoval4792]

@@hollowsteel so a sequel of sorts……

[@hollowsteel]

@@victorsandoval4792 in a way, yes. I was thinking of doing a proper sequel though. I don’t think this video is long enough to be a sequel to swift strike, nor does it necessarily add too much into the story. I like to think of it as more of a Segway from swift strike to its sequel.
