Just A Man - Kingdom

This is an animatic that I have had in the back of my head for the better part of a year now, so it is beyond satisfying to be able to actually get it onto paper and moving the way I've always wanted it to.
The majority of the characters featured in this animatic are not mine, so here's the lovely folks who made them:
Our main Man of the hour, Amadeus, as well as Ro and Jophiel are from my good friend over on Jojenis on instagram -
instagram : / jojenis
King Midas, a name familiar to some already, is from my right hand man, Peitalo Peitalos -
instagram : / peitalos
tumblr : / peitalo
and Aldwind is from my lovely partner ♥ !
Lastly, I know I didn't mention it a whole lot on my Art Fight prep video, so I want to formally say thank you so much for the overwhelmingly positive support from my last animatic. Never, in a million years, did I think that animatic would blow up the way it did. It was an absolutely surreal experience, and continues to be one, so thank you so much, I hope you guys stick around for more :]

Mmm love the move of a villain putting a hand through their enemy. "I need no weapon" energy right there. Lovely art as always and such a great turnaround :)

God I like this :D Nice seeing the illusionist again, but wait- did she just punch a hole through the other woman's body?
Also did the guy get a transformation into the fanged dude (King Midas??) or is it something else
I watched this but I got a bit confused on the next half

Hi,
Not Tempulian- BUT creator of the main guy you see singing here!
He is not Midas! Rest assured-
he IS crucial to the villain line though- he indirectly caused the split between aine and illusionist ! ;)

@@goonryane383 OH that makes a lot of sense now! Thanks!

Did that lady save the Illusionist, only to be killed by the Illusionist?

[@tonypringles2285]

Come back to listen. This sounds a bit different then other animatics. Is it like a slightly edited version of the song? Also is there anywhere we can get more for OCS like a full story

[@tempulian]

it might be because Rivera-Herrans re-recorded a few of his albums, and this is that version.
Also we don't have a full story out for these guys quite yet, but we have a tag under #kingdom smp on Tumblr if you wanna check out the art ! Otherwise, the animatics on my channel are probably the most direct way to get the story
