  • I was vibrating with too much excitement for the Thunder Saga, so I decided to churn this out instead of sleepinggggg
    This may get fleshed out, it may not, but this is a WIP/rough animatic of how I envision the opening to Scylla goes!
    I know that Scylla and Charybdis are supposed to be close to each other, but I envisioned Scylla's Lair to be in this like canyon but above the ocean...so somewhere like dark and suffocating, but not like a cave (because there needs to be an exit lol). My design of Scylla is based off of moray eels! Not from the Odyssey, but other descriptions of Scylla have her with canines attached to her form, so I thought the little face appendages that some moray eels have were close enough hahaha. May share some better sketches as well.
    Ngl when I first heard this song on the livestream, my jaw dropped with Eurylocus' confession. And weaving that in with the song for Scylla is so good!! ‪@JayHerrans‬ once again knocking it out of the park!!

    Watching Odysseus' angered expression when Eurylochus confessed, I pictured his thoughts being like, "You?! You are the reason I have to take this path?! Why I've had to make this terrible choice?!"

      I don't think Odysseus cares that much about the sacrifice of men. He is angry that he is taking longer to see Penelope

    The anger on Odysseus’s face when he realizes that Eurylochus is the reason he lost his fleet and his best shot home.
    Ody: …Eurylochus hold this torch and stand as close to the edge of the ship as you can please and thank you.

    See its so much sadder having read the Odyssey and knowing in the story they were maybe a half days journey from Ithica. They could see the houses along the border, then somebody had to go and open the wind bag and send them all the way to Laistrygonian. If the bag wasnt opened they would of been home with the whole fleet basically 😢

    I love how you showed the inner conflict of Ody here before he finally makes the order for the torches, as if he was still struggling with the choice to go through with it until that was the straw on the camel's back that made him finally settle on it.

    Oooooooh, I sure hope that's defeat and betrayal I can see on the rowers' faces. After all, their friends died to Poseidon as well. They had love ones waiting for them in Ithaca as well. Together, Eurylochus and Odysseus robbed them of their own families and friends.
    Also, is that a Scylla dog in the center? I will never get tired of seeing monstrous Scylla doggos

      @@RawwkinGrimmie64 you would be right!! I wanted to capture the regret on the rower's faces because I imagine Eurylocus was sort of convinced to open the wind bag by the crew. He also probably wanted to know what was in there but wanted to stay loyal to Ody.
