Mannequins - [ULTRAKILL SFM Animation]
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 8 ก.พ. 2025
- felt like playing around with a different theme this time using audio built from the ground up (rather than animating based off of a clip). absolutely loved the intro to 7-1, so i wanted to recreate it (albiet with a few artistic liberties).
that being said, with the release of layer 7, i got plenty of fresh new ideas for future projects that im excited to get started on (ones that probably won't take nearly as long as this one did). as usual, i'll be posting progress updates on here, so feel free to pop on by every so often and check those out.
and another BIG thank you to LordCthulhu814 for porting the mannequin model into SFM :] you can check out his commission info and ports at steamcommunity...
how it feels to grab the last cracker barrel mac n cheese.
Real
"You little shit"

Cracker barrel mentioned🔥🔥🔥🔥
I like how the wings changed color to represent V1’s caution
I mean it’s just like v2
Reminds me a lot of the little disc lights of androids in detroit become human
It's even better when they don't change to caution when they start swarming him. He's just like "Bring it on."
When did they change color?
@@DistinguishedSeal when the scuttling first starts
the mannequins always jumpscare me despite playing this level like 30 times
Same bro. The first time and 5th I still got spooked. My first reaction was spilling flammable oil on them.
I honestly stopped being scared and started thinking it was funny. I think it’s goofy how they all cram together to better surround you and it leaves the rest of the room completely empty
First time I played this level those things scared the shit out of me so bad that the cry of fear I let out actually made my mom come upstairs to see if I was okay. Every time I've played afterwards it still gets me.
Violence was the most well lit ultrakill layer but easily the most terrifying, just with the mannequins.
Maybe 7-1. The rest though...
Why,why are you everywhere,why must my favorite pokemon be swampert,why mus i see your pfp everywhere i go. Was the war crimes i commited against humanity this bad to see my favorite pokemon in a fetish art as a punishment,please god forgive my sinful existence,and plunge my eyes with the gift of blindness,and make me forget such grueling existence that is fat swampert.
@@VortexFhe is where you go I go
7-3 would like to have a word with you
YOU!
But yeah 7-1 and 7-3 gave me 0-S vibes
*Restarts*
"HEY, MIRAGE, CAN YOU TAKE OVER FOR THIS ONE?"
"Huh? Why?"
"I'VE SUDDENLY GAINED BOTH AUTOMATONOPHOBIA AND ARACHNOPHOBIA AND BOTH ARE TERMINAL"
mirage would kill hell itself and i refuse to believe she isnt the final prime soul
Get yourself a girl like Mirage.

Severely depressed and constantly having an existential crisis?
@@trulyagooseExactly.
@@trulyagooseomg she’s literally me
The top-down view of all the heads individually looking at V-1 felt like something straight out of a movie. This animation fucks.
timestamp?
@@EezePuffy0:11
what the fuck that's so subtle, like how good is your peripheral vision?
0:52
I like how you can already hear the mannequins crawling behind V1
Holy shit I never realized that lol amazing ears you got
I really like the idea that the mannequins are always staring directly at you when you don’t look at them
The breathing... death is a rare privilage in hell, and it's forever denied to those foolish enough to try to take hold of their fate.
I'll be honest, when I saw him pull out the shotgun, I thought he was gonna panic pump as they charge him.
Great stuff, now if only I got off my ass and finished act 2.
PLAY ACT 2 AND 3 NOW!!

I really like this rendition of V1's reaction to this mannequin part, the wings changing color when v1 is cautionary was such a fun detail. That ending was a neat twist, some real fire work right here 🔥🔥🔥
Didn’t expect you here
@@Guhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Who were you expecting, John Cena?
@@TheGlitchyFox uhhh guhhh buhhhhh 🕤🕤🕤🍞🍞🍞
Normally, I’m not a big fan of 3-d animation, but you really managed to capture the feel of this scene- the unsettling nature of the mannequins. And V1 getting out his gun was such a good detail! Good job, animator! Thank you!
wait, doesnt v1 store his weapons in his wings?
nah, they're for maneuvering in the air iirc @@SanitelTheSanitiser
both; look at the wings in the steam art for the game @@hedorah5
@@hedorah5 No, V1 does store weapons in the wings, you can literaly see it in the game cover.
The wings in the Vmodel does a lot of things
Such as preventing fall damage, infinite sliding, probably the ability to dash, store weapons or other things inside, probably a source of light if needed and many more
v1's choppy framerate compared to the more smoothly animated mannequins makes it more robotic and makes them creepier. its body language and behavior make it very animal-like. really Really effective sound design too. the timing of the soundtrack and the chirping of v1 and the metallic sounds when it moves its body and joints and the way you use the breathing of the mannequins. all of it sounds very satisfying. this is such a good fucking piece
it's always a big boost to my motivation when someone acknowledges the little details that i put into my work, so thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed them :]
man this animation is so good
i wish malformed-blood-covered humanoid spider people where real
good news!
Mediocre news.
Bad news
Secret news?
real news.
First off, awesome animation.
Secondly, knowing the lore, V1 wins this encounter, and that makes the animation being so terrifying even cooler, because no matter how much of a threat the mannequins are, V1 will always be stronger.
Incredble animation that perfectly capture's all of our first playthrough of 7-1. Great work!
Despite how creepy they are supposed to be, all I could think of was craving blood for when one would actually be killable...
I mean I wanted to style on them, yeah, that
core eject nuke: "I am about to end this entire room's mannequins' career"
If all the mannequins came to life all at once, I would be screwed
The war for the limited edition Stanley cup (red skull) at the local target:
You can actually see a mannequin moving on the floor behind V-1 to the left at around 0:19 shit freaked me out.
Oh i see it. Creepy
First time I played that level, I literally screamed when the mannequins suddenly started crawling up to me. Sent chills down my spine.
"Damn, you got the whole squad laughing."
Lokking at V1 saying "really bro? Why you disrespecting homie like that"
i like how V1 actually shows visible fear with it's wings having a red tint to it as he's looking around panic'd
GOD I HATE THAT ENDING SO MUCH IN A GOOD WAY, this honestly captures the “Oh shit.” Moment grabbing the skull while experiencing the level blind and expecting all hell to break loose seeing them all look directly at you.
First play through and I did not break eye contact with that room after leaving until I turned around the corner, love this animation man.
I love how you portrayed V1 to be human like even though realistically he would zoom into the skull and ignore the mannequins all together, only locking to potential hostiles while blitzing
"damn bro you got the whole squad laughing"
The squad-
*Mannequins moves to see at you*
"K, alt + f4 and openning animal crossing"
V1’s wings changing color is such a good way to add personality without sacrificing a more game accurate look
When I first got here I picked up the skull, saw them all staring at me and without hesitation, turned back around, put it back and walked out like it was none of my business and looked for more secrets.
we all knew the mannequins were gonna attack you when we played 7-1 yet the speed and spider moments still made us piss ourselves
I remember my first time I was just like "...hey fellas just gonna walk on past" just very slowly and cautiously walking. this is exactly how it went
ngl that part of the first level when the mannequins start attacking you actually made me scream lmao,, like i had to pause the game and stand on the porch for a few minutes to get some fresh air its a bit embarrassing
I swear 5 years from now somebody is going to make a full length Ultrakill movie in SFM
Not gonna lie, I damn near shat myself when I first played this level. I worked so hard to not get spoiled and got jumpscared as a treward
Honestly the color change in the wings was a really cool touch I haven't seen done for the V models, adds character and I like it!
I absolutely LOVE how you used the mannequin breathing sfx it’s so creepy
This is how it felt like the first time
Incredible animation, and you really nailed the look of it being in-game lighting tbh
This is one of my favourite ultrakill animations now, it really hits the vibe that the first violence level has, like you have captured it so perfectly dude.
OH MY GOSH, THIS is truly ULTRAKILL. Really this is amazing work man, the tone shift from other content had NOT effected it's quality at all. The framing makes it superb as well ( As ULTRAKILL has NO maps in SFM ) monumental effort for truly a fantastic job. 11/10
Edit for a question: how is it you animate the whole body without moving the feet, as the pelvis bone moves the whole body in SFM?
thank you, i'm glad you appreciate the work that went into it. it was a headache and a half to work on but im glad it turned out well :]
im a bit sleep deprived so my bad if im reading your question wrong but i usually use a script on the workshop called "auto-rigger" which creates an IK rig for an unrigged model. applying an IK rig to a model essentially makes it so that when bones (i.e., a hand bone) are moved, the connecting bones (i.e., the connected elbow bone) move as well rather than that single selected bone just stretching out. so when you select and move the pelvis, all of the bones connected to it move as well (minus hands and feet, which you can remedy by selecting those at the same time as the pelvis). bit of a messy response, but hopefully it answers your question (if not feel free to clarify the question a bit for my tired peabrain and I'll see if i can answer it correctly)
@@spunklord5000 You answered my question perfectly man! I appreciate your response, and with confirmation of needing to auto-rig for the IK rig, I can do some of my own projects better. I hope you get some sleep and continue to animate such great works! :]
0:28 i really love the unsettling part of the music here
Always refreshing to see an actually serious animation on ultrakill, needs to be more of these.
this felt like a horror level when i first played it
I literally said out loud ‘oh wait they’re gonna be facing me now huh?’ I’ve never paused a game to recover from a heart attack before but damn it got me
Really captured the first reaction you had right before the "jumpscare" room
Playing through this layer blind was an amazing experience
I kinda assumed he would grab the skull then core nuke without even checking to see if they moved
OOO THIS IS SO COOL
You managed to get exact atmosphere to that room omg
Do not look at the ceiling...
gawdamn. dis is like hollow knight with the place with the spider nest
King Minos: *PREPARE THYSELF!*
_The 4 cents of spare change in my pocket:_
You managed to add chills down my spine on something that already puts chills down my spine
This triggered a fight or flight response out of me. Brilliant work.
The silence and skittering at the end as they close in on V1 is so good. You did a great job with its body language to convey its caution as it realizes that something isn't right.
Another fire animation, it captured the feeling i had ahen in the intro specially beause i already saw the teasers i knew they whould come alive but now how it perfectly encapsulated the suspence congrats!.
Rare footage of v1 did'nt go burst into enemy and sliding:
This was honestly one of the best animations of ultrakill I've ever seen, everything from camera to how everyone acted was perfect
Winfs are kinda already canon if count the V2, which already as i remember changes his wing color in response to changing battle emgagement, from defensive to agressive
I threw coins into the crowd after I turned around, saying “keep the change”
Love the music, the animations, all of it! Truly the lord of spunk (and ultrakill animations).
I love how they stare at him like “dude wtf”
Very nice animation! I like the little details, like V1s wings changing color and the subtle movements of its head.
Always wanted to see a 7-1 animation like this
that was the second scariest part of the level for me, and the scariest part is not talked about enough
the red skull room, when the mannequins scuttled towards me at supersonic speeds, i just about spewed my bowels all over the chair
Ultrakill didn't need to bring the ultra spoopy.... But im glad it did tho!
I hate the mannequin
Not as an ennemi they feel fun to fight
But the concept, bring back so much doctor who angel feeling, they were the most terrifying ennemis in it, until one episode we don’t talk about, and the mannequin manage to get that feeling so well
the spider in the bathroom at 2 am:
And in that moment V1 hear a "ploc" sound behind it... when it looks... it finds a brick, a big red and smelly brick.
This entire layer had me on edge. Always looking over my shoulder and dreading every corner. I thought this was an action game, not a horror game
I feel like I'm the only person who noticed the Mannequins change poses when you look away from them on my first time going through this level. I've not seen anyone else mention it yet.
this is just too godamn well made
I am normally used to you making shitposts, so seeing a proper and well-crafted animation is really cool! I like all the small details you put into how V1 moves and acts. It adds a level of unspoken charm and personality to them in this video.
0:19 you can see (and hear) more crawl in under V1's arm for a split second before the camera change
I cant imagine V1 not sliding and dashing around out of combat, even in animations
V1 fr said "their right behind me arent they?"
The extra 15 minutes of waiting for that 30-ish minute announcement was worth it
He's so silly I love him and I want him as a bestie to cuddle with and keep me safe at night
I like how the camera shots were in beat with the music, it's just *chefs kiss*
Now i can only imagine a door opening showing the room, and everything, EVERYTHING is red, and he comes out of it looking like V2 because of how much blood he's coated in
i love how almost everyone's first reaction to this is pull out the core eject and gets ready to nuke the whole room
I
consistently love your animations.
In particular - the framerate style,
with Ultrakill especially, the choppier movement feels perfect, and you use it to such high results.
This is very good. You know how to cinematography
did you know this in one of the rooms, some of the mannequins have jojo references? one is posing like jonatham joestar and i think the other one is josuke
i love the use of 2d animaton techniques (animating on 2s and 3s) along with the 3d models, it has a nice charm to it and perfectly captures the feeling of seeing a mannequin for the first time
I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS im very happy to see you play around with a more creepy atmosphere and i also really liked how there is just...music it is very cool
do not get me wrong i like some of the suprisingly well done meme shit but something that has a unbroken sense of eerieness is REALLY cool especially since i haven't seen much of that actually be done in the community and it saddens me
have a slug day and hope you keep doing what you love
These fuckers scared the absolute shit out of me when they first rushed me, I wasn't expecting Ultrakill to dabble in horror like this lmao
The way you animate things feels super fitting for ULTRAKILL for a reason i cant explain.
ouhhh absolutely lovely animation ur animations always make me so happy. the snappy movement is SO good
This really captures what it feels like to play 7-1 for the first time.
The sheer detail here is amazing
Core eject+nuke type situation
They were already scary enough and now you make them look even more scary😭
that room makes the level the second scariest level in the game
God I shited myself even without scary sounds or screamers
This is just menacing 💀💀💀
i jumped from my chair when i first played this level lmao. I expected them to move but i still got jumpscared
the size of the mannequins make v1 look small and twinky by comparison
twinkbot
I love the wings changing color for a second 👌
0:48 Yooks watching me butter the toast like a Zook.
Love the fact you can hear V1 pass the checkpoint at the doorway
