Shattered Heaven - Complete Art and Animation Hub for the series.

[Azure Knight]

I'll be using this thread for both my traditional art and the Flash animation for the series.

In short, Shattered Heaven is a novel series I started years ago. A 6 book series, in which 4 are done and I'm in the midst of the 5th. In 2007 I decided that I wanted to do an animated special of the series but figuring that it would take too long to release one full special I split it into an episodic series. It is a mech series, not Armored Core based. This is strictly an original series.

The mech designs were influenced from both AC and Gundam and I used various mech series including Gundam to help me with animating the fight scenes. But, the writing came first, the art and designs after, so in no way was this influenced from Gundam. On Newgrounds I get tons of people just going on about how I "ripped off Seed Destiny's plot" when it's complete BS, and you can't even compare the two, but most do because there's mechs fighting like Gundam, so naturally the story is exactly the same since they involve mechs.

Animated freely in Flash using voice actors, both amateur and some of which who have begun a professional career the series has released 2 full episodes and the first 2 scenes and a preview of the 3rd.

Episodes can be found here:

The episodes are on youtube and Newgrounds, I am in the process of getting my server to stream the HQ videos of them that I have.

Haha, thanks. The amateur production studio works for now.

I should have some updates and actual new art in 2 years this weekend.

Finally started getting back in the mood to work on some things.

I'm currently trying to finish the 2nd opening to SH.

This is the WIP so far.

And here's the WIP of the 3rd scene of Act 3

I don't know why the mp3 player is there on the preview page. Which reminds me, I have to make that a pop up instead of embedding it in the page.

Released the full 3rd scene from Act 3. It's rough, the final version with lip syncing and some details and extras will be either out tomorrow night or Wednesday.
