Brother SRM Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 Well, last night I managed to put this flash cartoon together after my last animation, Explosion Force 5 2: Explode Harder was a total flop. This one is dedicated to my fellow Spehss Mahreens, and anyone who had to suffer commander Boreale's awful monologue from Dawn of War: Soulstorm. I bring you Warhammer 40k: Dawn of Awesome Tell me what you think! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/168673-40k-flash-animation/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother SRM Posted May 16, 2009 Author Share Posted May 16, 2009 Thanks for the replies so far ;) I figured the art style was befitting of Boreale's poor mastery over English pronunciation and grammar.

orphanfeast99 Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 While we are posing links <_< if you have a stomach for it, there are tons of clips from the 40k live action movie in there, you just have to wait.

Well, those are actually from the Epic Armageddon PC game, which I think was called Damnation Crusade. Funny video though - was definitely part of the inspiration for me making my little Spehss Mahreens flash.

Firenze Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 awesome. I even loved the Explode Harder thing. Sweet. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/168673-40k-flash-animation/#findComment-1991009 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dudley Nightshade Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 "There is no time to be lost!" ??? That's not quite on par with "All your base...", but wow. Until the credits rolled, I thought the dialogue was intentionally part of the humour. It's actually funnier now having seen the clip from the game.

Until the credits rolled, I thought the dialogue was intentionally part of the humour. It's actually funnier now having seen the clip from the game. It's always going to baffle me that someone was actually paid to read that script that poorly. At least "All your base" came from a Japanese game with a bad translator so they have something of an excuse. But "Spehss Mahreens" is just a result of terrible, terrible voice acting. And thanks for watching Explode Harder, Firenze :lol: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/168673-40k-flash-animation/#findComment-1991049 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dudley Nightshade Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 Oh, I don't think it's fair to give all the credit to the voice actor. I think the excellent writing deserves a share :) :rolleyes: Reminds me of a quote from Carrie Fisher about George Lucas's dialogue: "You can write this stuff, but you can't speak it."

Brother SRM Posted May 17, 2009 Author Share Posted May 17, 2009 I don't think George Lucas' dialogue or even Hayden Christiansen's acting really compare with Boreale and Soulstorm though <_< I'm also working on a segment of a 40k flash collaboration - I'll post some character models and such once I have them done up in flash. Trust me, this will look much better than Dawn of Awesome since it's not a joke (even though it will be funny) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/168673-40k-flash-animation/#findComment-1991250 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother SRM Posted May 18, 2009 Author Share Posted May 18, 2009 how did you rip the audio from DOW? I found a Youtube video of it, then found a site that rips the audio from Youtube vids.
