everything about the redesign is okay, but the eye-arches got to stay. it's what gives richard's face "menace" and expression. without it, he looks like he's made of dough.
I agree.... Everything is good but i need that eyebrow arch plus his signature double green ☑ on them
He's a sock puppet now...
Agreed
I would really think about redesigning the redesign
I'm frankly just glad to see more Richard. I'm fine with the redesign, but he gotta have some eyearches or something, its how he gives his sassy faces. Them sassy faces is the best.
Unless the result is a very very very good full feature series I would reconsider the redesign. It would be fine for silly shorts but it subtracts from the character. And if it was a full feature series i guess funding wouldnt be the main issue. The simplification of cartoons in the last decade is not anything to embrace
I cant agree anymore. Cartoons look so...lazy. In some cases I get it but others there is no excuse.
@@silverdragon147 Because I can
Lyo M yeah this has literally nothing to do with you kid. Go posture somewhere else.
I don't think he's doing anything with the movie/series idea anymore. I'm not even sure if he intended to make them at all. From the "This is War" kickstarter alone, he made almost enough money to do both it and the pilot episode based on the goals he created for them. The "This is War" campaign only needed $14,000 but it got $132,640. The pilot needed $196,595 and got $68,452. If he had put the leftover money from "This is War" into the pilot/movie like he said he was going to and asked for less money to make the pilot (by which I mean not just less than the goal but also less than people actually pledged to it) he would have had more than enough to make both "This is War" and the pilot plus he would have had a good amount of money left over. Either it was a scam or he's just terrible with money. I hope it's the latter but you can never be sure with Kickstarter campaigns. I wonder if the pledgers ever got their money back for the pilot and what happened to the $118,640 leftover from "This is War" that was supposed to be used on the movie/pilot?
Can't say that i like it, looks extremely cheap in a bad way. Just use Chibi-Richard.
Also what's up with the new studio name?
You can check it out here: www.lfg.co/well-hello-there/
You Can’t redesign Richard! He’s perfect!
now thats a bad redesign. looks like homestar runner in a robe. he needs his brow arches
Where's his brow??? It's not Richard without his brow ,___,
I'm gonna miss the old Richard design and blind ferret studios...
Agree with Richard. Don't like it.
‘Why don’t we hang out socially?’
...because you keep setting my cat on fire.
I miss Richard... remember when this was channel was called "blind ferret"
can't wait for this to go no where like the previous animated series'
Years later...
@@WaxDrag Months after that
@@SharpWits2013 Mmhmm.
And then we never saw him again...
A bit too cheap and simple for my taste.
It is also missing some of his features (green tatoos...)
I dunno, he just feels so bland and tame now. Lost a lot of personality.
Bland and tame, those two words can resume modern Western animation...
Leave old richard as he is, I love the classic design.
So what's with the studio name change? What happened with blind ferret Studios?
Would like to know that too
Check out this blogpost here: www.lfg.co/well-hello-there/
Also was wondering, thanks :3
How much money do you need to get expensive!Richard off the ground? Because you can definitely have all of mine.
Not a huge fan, but I understand it's more practical. Maybe keep the eye arches like someone else said? It takes away from the design's personality if they're not there, or make the eyes bigger and more expressive?
I've been being blue balled for eleven years now... stop teasing me and give me confirmation about the show
Can't say I like the change in drawing style.
If that's what you go with I'll be skipping the animated episodes.
Feels like the Teen Titans to Teen Titans GO! redesign... and.. I suddenly hate it more.
I miss green face tattoos...
something tells me they don't like the redesign either...
... Two Months Later....
."...Guess we'll stop this. Again. Maybe someday we'll get around to doing something with this additional thing we created."
*Sight*
Someday....
Wait are they really making a LFG Cartoon Network series?
great, now I want a "team up" between Richard and Black Hat from Villainous
Adult Swim that shit. Otherwise it'll turn into Teen Titans Go.
This, and the entire hiatus is making me sad. If i won a lottery, i would be like "here is 100 000 dollars, can you FINALLY finish the story and make a movie or do you need more?"
I understand the why behind the redesign, but it takes away from who Richard is. He just looks gormless now.
Hilariously, I haven't looked at LFG in 2 years.
Looks like he went back to first pages richard
Just got around to watching this. Sorry to say it, Sohmer, but this feels like a step backward. Richard should look sharper, not softer, and he's expressionless without the eye arches. Put the old Richard next to the new one, and you should be able to see that this looks like a downgrade. :( I'm as excited for an LFG animated series as anyone, but if this is what it would look like, may I recommend going back to the drawing board?
From a design and animation perspective, Richard looks great.
On his own, it is easy to distinguish him from the background. But in an animated series, Richard will often find himself interacting with other characters and will very likely be overlapped with some detailed background, like people crowds. A simple thicker outline would make him stand out, and it will also define his lines of action better. To push it even further, some tweeners (distortion and bone-breaking frames) would make the animations smoother and more fluid.
Check out McCree's POTG rolling animation from Overwatch. There is a very weird looking frame where he is super distorted, just to REALLY sell that barrel roll. It's one frame and it does the job so well.

I've been reading your LFG comic since page 32 was released, and you've grown so much. I can't wait to see what you do with the animated series.
Needs the eye arches
Am I missing something? Did they do a redesign just to never make more animations anyway?
I'm just glad he's back and still has that amazing voice.
Guess who’s back,back again
Awww . . .Richard was so perfect. :(
redesigned then never saw em again ):
Looks clean ~
It's so good to see Richard again! but then....he gets bland...ed?
I dislike the current cheap animation thrend. I understand why one would chose it, after all a lot of half decent show used that trope as a marketing argument, but none the less, producing arts that is inferior to what you were doing ten years ago seem counter intuitive.
I still like this guy tough.
Needs the eyebrows
Need to redesign the redesign to make him evil'er. Hes more expressive with the simpler design, but he needs to stay menacingly spooky
I've wanted to see this become like the comics ... but animated. So is it finally happening?
Can this time we belive that something will be done?
like that one movie that never was?
You lot are awfully snarky. Don't you read their journals??
Excitement abounds
Where is our next animation of a Richard sing along? Just give me one thing to enjoy life.
Miss you guys! qnq
wow...this was almost 3 years ago @Laughing Dragon Studios when is the new video content coming out...or at least an update video explaining why this channel is dead and what you have been busy on
The Gritty bit rolls me!
Didn't even know you were still animating.
Really don't know how i feel about this and been using this avatar for a decade now.
What happened to his voice? His old VA was perfect
Same voice actor as always! Dave B Mitchell www.imdb.com/name/nm2022559/
Shame the movie never happened.
Los amo
As long as his attitude and dialogue are same old Richard, he can be a floating circle with his name on it. Animation isn't an easy task, so do what you gotta do.
He is my hero.
Gritty is scary as hell.
Give him back his sinister overarching brow and his eye tattoos and you have a deal.
PLEASE do some more LFG animations.. XD sell it to whatever network, just do a series... This animation will do perfectly..
.....Are you guys still around or did youtube kill you like they did to Glove and Boots?
I hate how all my favourite youtubers seem to have all died back in 2019......damn it.....
i gues....... it's defintly not an upgrade... but if its to costly to animate the old one....
I dig the new design, but he just doesn’t seem as grumpy & “likely-to-incinerate-you-for-no-reason” as he usually does.
The last video of our man rip, I haven't read the comics in years but lfg used to be super important to me I remember what feels like ages ago binge reading the whole series up to Aug of 2010 the night before my first day of high school and regardless of status I'm still waiting for origins of dick. And did the top down game ever get made? (Edit I can't find anything about the lfg game I know I saw a trailer for so either I'm getting Mandela effect'd or it's been wiped but I clearly remember seeing something about it and getting pumped at like 15-16 but that was 12ish years ago so idk)
Okay, I'll be honest. I do not like this redesign. It looks cheap. Really cheap. Maybe I'm just too used to seeing Richard in his, I guess, "original look". I got bored of LICD a while back, and if this is the way LFG is going to go, I'm out. Sorry guys, this just isn't my jam, anymore.
I *love* the logo. Oh: and as a VA, you're a pretty good cartoonist.
whatever happened to the LICD with Tara Platt and Steve Blum and a bunch of other great VAs that got a kickstarter a few years ago?
It's still being shopped around
And now the comic is over :(. We will never see the movie and now the story is done. Sad.
Sadly Richard loses very much of his "life" of his personality with the new design. :(
Of course it saves very many hours of work, but I'm unsure, if this is a good fit for him.
What happened to this project?
Add back eyebrows at least, it needs them for expressions
This is fine I suppose but what happened to his eyebrows??
0:04 is that flowey's laugh but non-demonic?
feels like a bad chinese knock-off.. both looks and voice.. OG design and voice ALL THE WAY.
he loses soooo much expression with the "new" design and really just comes across as a LAZY attempt at immitation.
Man if you are really trying to get on Cartoon Network more power to you! Woot! Good luck! :)
HELL NO
I also ha-- cartoon network set? hm.. I still hate it.
For those looking for more info: www.lfg.co/well-hello-there/
expensive to animate? arent you doing it in a animation programme on your computer ?
So... did they just give up after everyone hated on it?
This is worse than the Sonic attempt D: change it back! :P In honesty if it generates revenue it'll be worth doing as later down line we can all get the Richard we remember and like, baby steps with a new studio :) congrats btw
What are the odds of another video?
Where’s that movie at !!!!
They're just changing him for the animation, right? He's gonna be the same in the LFG comic still?
I mean its fine but you stopped after this? I hope you're doing well regardless. 💗
I like it!
welcome back, lil' Dickie
What happened to Blind Ferret?
You can find the answer here: www.lfg.co/well-hello-there/
i hate it too
Honestly I think the redesign is amazing, great, except for one. little. thing. his head shape, I think he shouldve at least kept the brow and the green tattoos. I feel like it was a key component to his design as well as very useful in his expressions, considering richard lacks pupils and the entire rest of his face is covered up.
Is Richard's VA different?

Jesus Christ no. no more cheep and chibby things i know its exspecive but if things are bad patreon or ... anything besides that. are you guys getting tired of this or something? if you are don't kill it just end gracefully. >.> move on if the joy is gone just for the love of god don't get sloppy or half ass the art. it feels like im being cheated.
don't go the path of Bethesda or cartoon network with the rushed or safe or cheap. they just kills everything. makes things soulless. we can wait if it will take longer this just makes a heap of no. again WE CAN WAIT FOR GREATNESS!!!
well I didnt think Id see this today
I hate it too.
I mean... this is what I always wanted
I too hate the new design...
Careful, or you’ll be next!
-i
How refreshingly pessimistic....
You guys have already pitched the show to Netflix? Or are there some things or people that even Richard wouldn't even sell Cale's soul to?
Soooooooo... back?
