I’ve got mixed feelings on this episode, but I still feel like its undoubtedly my current best. The second longest episode so far, and it’s packed with important dialogue and good bits. Again, probably the best in the series so far.
Of course animation periods were inconsistent, so some parts near the beginning look a lot worse than the parts later on, but regardless, I think this episode has by FAR the best character animation and backgrounds I’ve made. I also experimented with perspective and camera angles a lot more, to varying successes.

I experimented further with facial expressions – ESPECIALLY with Pastel. I tried making her a lot goofier and I think I succeeded. Stanley got a redesign but he doesn’t really have a face, so no fancy expressions for him.
Gary translated EXCEPTIONALLY well into Stick Nodes, which I’m very happy about. It gives me hope for when I inevitably have to model more of my characters in this app.
