king [ EPIC: The Musical | Animatic ]

Hi! really busy with class rn haha, but jay posted this snippet a while back and decided to take a crack at it tonight to destress (and to figure out how animating him with a beard will be like)(very painful) This is the only time I ever gave them faces and its just because they die in 30 seconds HAHA fun odyssey fact: a lot of the suitors are Telemachus' age or maybe a little bit older because they're essentially the noblemen left after Odysseus and his men went to war. So these were the children born after or the kids who weren't old enough to fight (or the elderly who were too old I guess?) (barring some visitors from other countries, whose age range vary) So when he does kill the suitors, the very angry fathers and uncles and whatnot form a mob to seek vengeance before athena gives him plot armor and decides that maybe its time he stops dealing with the consequences of his actions anyways! follow jorge's tiktok for more snippets amen

(Odysseus) (Odysseus) (Odysseus) (Odysseus) Where is he? Where is he?! Keep your head down! He's aiming for the torches Our weapons... they're missing! He's using the darkness to hide his approaches We're empty handed, up against an archer... Our only chance is to strike him in the darkness We know these halls, the odds can be tilted You don't think I know my own palace? I built it!

When your parents find you up in the middle of the night

I love Odysseus' transition from wringing his hands over bloodshed into finally coming home and seeing what is basically an occupying army harassing his wife, and concluding "you know what? A little more bloodshed actually."

@neptune4817

I LOVE HIS DERANGED LOOK

@MaggieJaneSimpson

he wanted so much to return home and seeing all these people disrespecting his homeland, his wife and son... he got insane for a bit

@midnamagic2678

“You think I don’t know my own palace? A built it” Ooooh, that line hits so hard and your art made it hit harder with that look in his eye like a predator that’s found it’s prey.

@AthyBunni

Love how Odysseus appears out of nowhere with "the audacity of this BITCH" spread across his face

@rocaanonima2041

I really like how the first guy kinda looks like a younger Odysseus, it feels symbolic of how, before, Odysseus has been the one to fight the boss battles, but now HE'S the boss battle, y'know? I dont know if it was intentional but i really like that representation of the role reversal here

@MinisDunyasi5

I love the people’s expressions in this animatic. Especially the small drops of sweat. It shows how scared, off guard, unready and nervous they are because of the king. Also, the mysterious character showing up, and striking that killer smile in the end is the icing on the cake. Sheer perfection.

@vibechecker3168

“The odds can be tilted”-man about to find out that the odds could not in fact, be tilted

@snarkywallflower5829

“You think I don’t know my own palace? I built it!” I literally yelled out loud at this line! And god, the way you animated his expression while saying it - the look of someone who's THIS close to having his family back, and doesn't care what he has to do to make it so. To be fair, couldn't have happened to nicer people. That killer smile....

@Mat-vb2hz

I really like the fact that in this song we clearly see the transformation of Odysseus, from a mercyful person to a rough "monster", and that here it is especially well drawn, we see in his eyes that he's just had enough and like Poseidon he's got "no mercy left to give"

@storyxobssesedxnerd

First of all, I love how badass odysseus is in this one. Like he has done the journey HE IS DONE and like okay imma fight these mfs, ain't nothing holding me back. And the way you drew this is amazing! I especially love the part at 0:12, where the one suitor pushes the toher against the column like: Pull yourself together man! Stay focused! So amazingly done I'm just ahhhh

@loginlost_horizon6327

All i need - is a full "Warrior Of The Mind", "Dangerous" and "Charibdis", after that i can die with peace. Dude, your animatics for Epic: The Musical are straigt up supperior, design of characters, jeneral vibe, faces and expressions - all of that are top tier!

@sandazvejniece1354

My goodness, Odysseus coming out of the dark to reveal himself. And the expressions. The fear you caught in their eyes is striking, absolutely increadable! And this animatic was so unexpected, in a good way! Your work is amazing, Wolfy!

@charbird20

OMG ODY LOOKS SO UNHINGED IT’S AMAZING!!! I’m so excited for this song in particular. It’s my favorite part of the story! YOU CAPTURED THE ENERGY PERFECTLY ❤🙌

@dannithespoonlord

God, he deserves to be the final boss. He's been through so much shit in his way home. I really hope you do this again when the whole song is out because this? Incredible! I love seeing your work <3

@alkaidgold

OKELDMEDOWNFIE, Odysseus smile with the hitting line, jut hits harder, he looks so menacing, and he’s doing barely anything, these poor suitors, they have no idea what they’re into, or maybe they know. It’s amazing to see Odysseus fighting against humans, it makes us see the perspective of how much he’s been into, Odysseus is a monster that was created after fighting against monsters and Gods.

@freyablackman3860

YOOOOOOOOOOOO! THE FULL SONG ISN’T EVEN OUT YET AND YET YOU CREATE A MASTERPIECE OUT OF WHAT WE HAVE!!!!!!!! This is so cool Wolfy! Well done

@cautionary_noxxy

Damn the moment where their small, unsure grins turn into looks of pure fear when they hear Odyssey’s voice is just: chefs kiss

@elid2975

“You don’t think i know my own palace? I BUILD IT” so badass I love him
