Dude I cannot stress this enough, DONT STOP WHAT YOURE DOING! It is amazing work and you are extremely talented. I can’t wait for you to complete this series and even animate other legends stories!
Well he doesn't wanna animate more legends stories as he said in one of his videos as after Dark Empire is complete he wants to do his own original content. I still come home to finish his star wars content
Very amazing! The mouth moments are very reminiscent of Peter Chung’s work on Aeon Flux, that sort of caricatured but oddly fluid motion. Not too mention how well it fits the voice. Just love it.
Wow, just like you talked about improving your animation methods, the result speaks for itself man. Very flued performance. I can't imagine the effort it took to get all that LIPSYNC to look so good. Can't wait to see the full piece.
Man I’ve just been continuously binge watching the last 2 dark empire episodes you made over and over again i’m taken away by how much this project just sucks me in the way it does can’t wait for episode’s three release!
Nice work! Just a bit of intel: The officers name is Titus Klev, all he does in the comics is yell at his crew because Luke and R2 keep messing up his objectives ;)
Out of everything SW related I've seen on this website this is by far the one I'm looking forward to the most. Your dramatic improvement in animation and dedication to adapting this whole series is really inspiring. Keep up the good work and I look forward to seeing the end result.
dude idc if it takes u 3 years to mkae the whole 6 parts, im waiting for it, ur dark empire part 1 and 2 animation is the exact reason why im reading the Dark Empire books, keep it up man
THIS IS SO AWEOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CANT WAIT FOR EPISODE 3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THANKS SO MUCH FOR MAKING AWESOME CONTENT!!!!!!!! YOU DA MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey! Takes a while since I cant work on it full time. Back when I was in school I had significantly more free time, but with a full time job and work on the side the time to work on dark empire has been cut down dramatically. Its still getting worked on, just much much slower
It may be a loooooot to ask, especially seeing that this project isn't finished, but could you possibly, please, please, _pleeeeeeeeeaaaase_ animate the New Jedi Order someday? I'd LOVE to see that epic series visually realized!
I think there is something up with your account. Over the past few days it keeps showing me that you uploaded a new video, but then I come to the page and there is nothing new...

Yeah, do what Disney never will for us.

You certainly nailed the imperial arrogance in countenance

Can't wait! Take your time

Holy crap this looks amazing! Keep up the good work! I'll be along for the ride.
Great stuff man! Stoked you're still working on this. Very cool!

Oooooooh weeee, animation is looking crispy and high res!!! Looking forward to your upcoming content!!!
Yay I’m so excited I can’t wait
Looks great!
Nice work!

Been wondering how your episode 3 is going along. So I searched it up after 10 months, and this clip shows even MORE promisee. Looking forward to it!

Wow, this is top level animation. Amazing. Great acting, great line work, and the motion looks good too.
WOW! Yessssssss
I have watched this clip around 27 times over the last 2 days and can't get enough
This will be a day long remembered…
I could wait for this even years, What a such amazing, wonderfull world.
I've got to say your animation has improved 100 fold! Keep it up!!
Beautiful
Thanks so very much for the update.
I beg you, please please pretty please finish Dark Empire. After that please consider Heir To The Empire.
Animation and voice are on point. I really love the old fashioned and kindly soft exaggerating facial expressions.
Bruh I love your work it’s amazing. Try maybe switching foreshortening during these kind of monologues, it would catch the looks stronger
THIS IS SO AWEOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CANT WAIT FOR EPISODE 3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THANKS SO MUCH FOR MAKING AWESOME CONTENT!!!!!!!! YOU DA MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The animation is incredible, thank you for keeping the spark of hope alive for good star wars content.
Dude, your animation is getting better and better! Can’t wait for Episode 3! 🤩

Waiting for the complete episode!
Your work is amazing as always.
Your talents keep growing!
Really great work. I hope you're proud of I because I sure as heck would be.

Amazing! I wish there was more I could do to get you more views cause this deserves it way more than Disney.
Beautiful animation. Love it.
Excellent work commander!
Can't wait to see Palpatine's Force storm
This is simply amazing
Kicking butt you are. Looking forward to this, I am. Clicked like, I have.

Amazing! 🏆
Thanks!
@@SpikeyTortoise What you are doing is truly incredible and such a delight to watch! Thanks for doing what you do! 🏆🥳
When can we expect the next episode
Next year I think, it's gonna take some time.
Aiming for the end of summer, around fall at latest
Any more updates? Love your work on bringing dark empire to life
It’s coming along, slowly but steadily
You are my hero
Amazing work! Though if it's possible to edit the timing of his arm I think it might work better if the subtle jerk upward of his hand was at "brief"
Impressive... Most impressive.
Nice
I just hope at some point that disney allows more animated adaptations of old eu stuff. And not just visions.
wow
Oh my goodness
Awesome stuff man - how comes it takes you so long? I want to see more! Also you should do it on the new Disney Star Wars comics!
Hey! Takes a while since I cant work on it full time. Back when I was in school I had significantly more free time, but with a full time job and work on the side the time to work on dark empire has been cut down dramatically. Its still getting worked on, just much much slower
@@SpikeyTortoise I understand. Those were the days right!! I remember lol anyway keep it up:)
Don't Officer's wear gloves BTW?
🤷♂️
I think some do, and so others don't.
Is it just me, or does the lip syncing remind me of Milo's expressions from Disney Atlantis?
OH HE LOOKS SO FUCKIN COOL
Quick question is the V Wing in Episode 3 of Dark Empire
So is there a place where I can support this

Sorry! Once dark empire ep 6 is done I’m moving on to non fan related content
@@SpikeyTortoise Fair enough.
I think there is something up with your account. Over the past few days it keeps showing me that you uploaded a new video, but then I come to the page and there is nothing new...
I’ve been doing livestreams intermittently
@@SpikeyTortoise Yeah, but those aren't even showing up.
@@jamessuraciart they aren’t posted after, they’re just live
@@SpikeyTortoise Ah, lame.
Damn, and that's not even the final product...
Thanks!
@@SpikeyTortoise you're legendary.
INcrebile
nitpick his hat its so tiny🤣
It’s a stylistic choice :)
This looks super good.
