Nah this is just the Good Ending to Ruthlessness. Ody immediately opened the bag and everyone hightailed it out of there before anything bad could happen
When Odysseus tried to follow Athen and she stopped him with her spear, it hurts so much :,) The new changes really add more weight to the song being their last goodbye

In a perfect world, this musical would be an animated movie/show planned and drawn solely by Wolfy 🙏😤 and they would be paid significantly large amounts of money ofc
My feelings exactly! I'm at the point I almost can't watch anyone else's animations of Epic because I just love all of Wolfy's so much, they feel like the canon art to me haha
I'm absolutely FERAL over Poseidan dropping his elbow on the boat and then smacking Odyssous down with the same water he shows the reflection with. THE COREOGRAPHY IS JUST AMAZING! GAH! LOVED IT. even if it was brief, thanks for sharing.
OMG THE RUTHLESSNESS ONE??? IT'S SO COOL??? That part literally altered my whole brain chemistry. Wow. I'm so sad it's in the graveyard now :( But Good luck with your finals! you're immensely talented, I know you're gonna kill it!
Those seconds of Ruthlessness were freaking AMAZING, Poseidon looks so genuinely threatening, intimidating, imposing, he is powerful and he knows it, he could kill them all so easily but he's playing with them all first, I freaking love it. It's also so visually pleasant, I LOVE the design, and the smile appearing from the water is so great, so creative.
thank you for sharing your wips, even if you’re moving on. 🤍 falling for your athena all over again-i love how even the simple shape of her mouth looks like a bird in flight. looking forward to seeing wherever your art takes you in the future!
I love the stuff you've thought of to remake "My Goodbye" and think it would've made it a lot stronger, but I am also fond of the original. Thanks for sharing the storyboards! Love the imagery of Athena cutting herself out of Odysseus's life tapestry.
You have my absolute favorite depiction of Poseidon and the emphasis of his size and power! I've been vibrating with excitement to see your ruthlessness take, and I can see it would have been awesome! But I also totally understand how the pressure to force yourself to complete something that isn't working anymore is detrimental. I hope whatever projects you're working on now bring you a ton of joy, and I look forward to seeing them!
aaaah I will miss your talent in Epic fandom, your Ody's design is my fav ❤ thank you for sharing those wips! love seeing Ody being manhandled by Poseidon and it was delicious in your interpretation 😚 the ending when Athena walks away from Ody is soooo goood! best of luck on everything you have planned, Wolfy!
idk why but the sequence starting from 1:41 where ody is walking scratches my brain in the right way idk it just feels so fluid and the subtle camera shift rlly does a lot for a such a short sequence. sad its abandoned but honestly even unfinished these animatics r great! have fun with the tma brainrot
Am I slight crushed that ruthless got graveyarded? Yes. But at the same time I understand the whims of artistic inspiration. It chooses you and it’s VERY temperamental. Go wherever the fandom winds take you. Make what brings you joy ❤️
amazing as always, but sad to see you leaving :‘) just wanted to say thank you since you, specially your unfinished ruthlessness animatic, is what got me into epic! i‘ve been following you since the mcyt days so looking forward to being dragged into another fandom in the future and seeing where life takes you x
I'm not Fully sworn off from making animatics since the songs are bangers haha, but yeah I'm very fixated on tma right now and will likely be for a good while
Even if these WIP are buried you got to hand it to yourself that doing these alone is impressive. It really does take a lot of effort that a lot of people forget about. Thank you for sharing this with us!
Wherever your animation journey takes you, please don't take these Epic animatics down unless you have to or you just can't bear to have them up. Yours is my favorite Poseidon, and this fandom has produced some _incredible_ Poseidon designs.
When I saw the title I was like "Uh, is there any Epic song titled 'Graveyard' or...? Maybe from another musical...?" 😂 Don't you worry Wolfy, this, unfinished or not, is great. I love wips, because your lines and composition are incredible, so I'm happy either way!! ❤
The opening for Ruthlessness is honestly the most epic and dramatic opening for any animatic I've ever seen. And the opening for Storm, with the fishes, is so cinematic. You're very talented.
Quite sad to see you leaving the epic fandom animations, especially that they REALLY helped me to get into epic in the first place and i had so much fun seeing the amazing work you kept making, I'm not a podcast person but seeing your cool looking art (and some friends encouragement) I started TMA and having a great timr!! i can't wait to see even more of your art in the future and thanks for sharing these awesome animations wips!!!
Ok but the underwater shot from "Storm" ❤🤩🤩 and when the oar gets into the water and then we move up to the boats and the crew☺️. Plus, what you had so far for Ruthlessnes was just brilliant 🌊 Please dont give up on epic, your animatics are incredible
Hhaha. I get it, this is your goodbye, sob* Thank you for getting me into this fandom and for all your amazing work. You are such a talented artist. I hope whatever projects you fall into next bring you as much joy as you brought to this community
Ohh this is amazing! The ripping of the tapestry that showed his whole life and he's left to clutch at scraps and run after Athena but he gets there after she's already gone! All your sketches are so expressive and fluid. Thanks for uploading these WIPs! I really like them.
I am so sad to know these animatics will (most likely) never be finished, but from what you've shown they look absolutely stunning. Your talent is seriously beyond belief. I cannot wait to see what you continue to create with an ever changing, ever growing art style. Don't push yourself. Our special interests become chores if we force them, so let the creativity flow as it comes. Also cAN WE TALK ABOUT HOW GOOD THE UNDERWORLD SAGA IS I AM SOBBING-
I adore the movement of Poseidon in Ruthlessness! The way his form keeps slipping back and forth from water and man is just excellent, and I'm obsessed with how he tipped their boat by resting his elbow on it. It is such an effective way of making him project effortless power and, in my opinion, your animatic elevated the song.
im OBSESSED with the new style you have for odysseus, and although youre abandoning these wips with the old style, i would love to see literally any epic animatic content with your new version of him. It makes me insane i havent been able to stop thinking about how you draw him now
Ah, such a shame these won't be finished. I love your direction. The start to storm being the oars hitting the water was so good. Just little things like that. Well, I look forward to what you make in the future.
Take care for your mind health! I used to compare all videos with yours. Yours turned out to be something of a benchmark for me regarding EPIC. I'll be following for your new content!
I just have to talk about how much I love how incredibly playful and callous your Poseidon is. Bro is literally *still* chillin with the waves even as he's about to murder a good 500 people.
I adore your animation. Keep up the great work. Even these are amazing. And honestly props to you. Your art is amazing. Just....keep it up and also good luck with finals
Your Poseidon is definitely my favorite interpretation in Epic. Every part of his scene makes him feel like a proper ocean incarnate. Also the plans for the choreography were stellar. I'm glad I got to look through these WIPs, and I wish you luck with all future endeavors, no matter the passion.
Wolfy, I can understand what you're saying about your change of style and needing to "see" the scene to be able to animate it and still needing to do that before the motivation runs out. I suffer a lot from creative block. But I also need to say how your animations made Epic come to life for me. Seriously, I don't want to put pressure on you or seem like I'm demanding, but your animations transported me into the myth. Your videos made me cry and smile along with Odysseus, they made me feel every emotion, and honestly, it was even because of them that I'm hooked on the musical today. And well, I know that this is much more than just the style of animation and drawing. This is thanks to your vision, your interpretation of the scenes and imagination that fill the animation with so much expressiveness. No matter how much your style changes, I'm sure you won't miss this detail. Well, all this just to say that even if you remade all the animations I would watch it again, even if it was a stick figure. And sorry for any spelling mistakes, I'm using the translator, I'm Brazilian and I don't speak English very well.
Not a graveyard, but a touching and beautiful memorial to projects once full of life, now laid down to rest as a tribute to growing as an artist and as a person, ever changing and evolving skills and interests. Thank you,Wolfy.
I love all of this. As someone who is aspiring toward a career in storyboarding, it's so fascinating to see the process behind the finished animatics! Especially the My Goodbye remake, I love seeing all the little notes and choices that went into it. And the changes you would have made in a second attempt. If EPIC ever gets picked up for an animated film (small chance, I know, but a girl can dream), I sure hope you're on the storyboard team - your boards do such an amazing job of bringing each song and each character to life!
Personally, I really like how Athena's lips were designed. They easily reminded me of bird beaks, and one of her many symbols is an owl (which she could also transform into)
Gorgeous work, even with them being wips. Finding one's artistic voice and style is a journey! Thanks for sharing these and looking forward to whatever you fo next! ♡
Oof, I really liked Ruthlessness so far and I love the proposed changes to My Goodbye, but this is just how it is as a creative. Hope this means you're moving on to greater things! 🎉
Wolfy, we want you to be happy with what you’re working on (even if we will mourn the masterpieces never made). Your Poseidon is my favorite, and it’s a bummer we’re not likely to get a full Ruthlessness. BUT allow me to tell you that your strength is your creativity and your ideas and your innovation, and that will show up in anything and everything you make. So have the most fun doing whatever makes you happy! Can’t wait to see what comes next! 🎉
Honestly, this made me feel so much better about my animations. The fact that even your amazing work goes through a "gooey" phase is really comforting. Thank you for uploading this!
I will be grieving since these are most of my favorite songs, and yours was my favorite potrayal of Poseidon in ruthlesness, I hope we can get to see more of your work cause it's always so dinamic and pleasing to watch!
RIGJT WHEN THE UNDERWOLD SAGS COMES OUT TOO????? WOLFY YOURE EVIL😭 ILL MISS YOUR ANIMATICS SM THEY HAVE BROUGHT ME SO MUCH JOY MY ODYSSEY BRAINROT IS AT OTS PEAK RIGHT NOW IM GONNA KMS /hj
I don’t understand how you always draw characters exactly like I picture them in my head and I love Poseidons smug bastard smile it’s so good! Your expressions are always on point ❤
Hi there! I am a student whose major project to finish their course is an animation. I've been looking at your work as a huge fountain of inspiration! I love seeing your unfinished WIPs (abandoned or not), as they sort of "demystify" the process of animation by seeing all the shapes, squiggles and lines that formed the scaffolding throughout the making of the craft! Seeing the WIPs makes me much more confident to trust my process and tackle down my assignment instead of procrastinating like I've been doing for so long. So, thank you for sharing your work, and, specially, for sharing the unfinshed WIPs. Congrats on surviving your finals, and I hope you manage it through the mid-artsyle crisis! :)
Omg all of these were cooking, I love the choices you made. Poseidon was so menacing!!! And storm looked so cinematic! The end of my goodbye was gonna be so cool and dramatic too!
I have been looking for my favorite animatic of Ruthlessness specifically, but I couldn't find it anywhere on youtube. And then I realized it's here in your graveyard! It's so perfect and closest to how I imagine, so full of life and impressive like all your other animatics. So tanks for posting even if unfinished! So beautiful (I think you're actually what got me first into Epic too, so thanks for that!)
All of your videos in this series have been a pleasure to watch and even in the WIP form your designs and storytelling concepts shine through. Truly epic work! Thank you for sharing these even if they won’t be completed it’s a beautiful thing to see!
Thank you so much for sharing your epic the musical animatics with us until now ! As always they look amazing (absolutely love your poseidon design) and i look forward to your futur animatics on whatever inspires you the most at the moment !!
Storm actually looked cool. That is one animatic I would love to see pulled from the grave, even through the rough scribbles it was clear what the was happening and the emotion.
even in just the storyboards, your concepts are soo cool to see, like athena slicing the tapestry of Odysseus's life and the bit where poseidon puts his elbow on the ship and tilts the whole thing, this honestly rules
I’m a big fan! You really have brought life into these characters and the songs from Epic. Thank you for sharing these. I can’t help but rewatch your videos over and over again! Wish you the best as you continue on your creative journey!
I know as an artist it's kinda sad to loose the energy in a project, and to see how much energy and effort put into a piece only for it to feel like sunk-cost. But also as an artist I love the fact that you still showed this to us, because even sketches and art studies are placed in museums. To see your process, and clearly follow the narrative and tell the emotions with just the guidelines of the head shows sooo much artistic talent and helps those that might study your work (I know there is definitely people that love how you do expressions, including me) understand how you get to the spectacular animation level your at. I know I'm excited to see your process from start to finish, for every upload you do, and if some end up in the graveyard it's still cool to see what you were envisioning as you heard the songs!
Your renditions for Epic are my favorite amongst the bunch and has inspired me so much - the nuances, the character design and compositions and the flow - I was really hoping to see Epic animated with you at the lead. I actually still play your videos whenever I get into an animation slump, and I'm always showing it to people! Sad to see you jump ship but wherever you swim to next, I'm certain it'll be great and I look forward to it! (no pressure though! Relax and do what you do, but take care of yourself for sure!) [ ^_^];;
The boats have won.
They always do
i love how even when they're blobs you can tell who Odysseus is because he's shorter than everyone
SHORT KING
he takes after his voice actor

@@3nitii the one with the smiling horse? If that's the one yeah, that things creepy asf
@_nenzi_ yeah that one :)
Adding to this, Neal Illustrator also made an insanely good version :D
I'm not gonna lie, the changed to "My Goodbye" are straight cooking, those just look dope as hell, I can see the vision. Rip WIP
yeah, the concept of there being tapestries in the background is just amazing!
FR
Giant Poseidon leaning on the ship to freak the crew out is such a nice detail. I think the size people decide to make him is really interesting.
Sad it's a graveyard but nice we see these. Your Epic animations (especially first just a man) are so heartbreakingly awesome.
i love seeing wips because there are panels where only the artist can figure out what the hell is happening
Nah this is just the Good Ending to Ruthlessness. Ody immediately opened the bag and everyone hightailed it out of there before anything bad could happen
Just got here and the line "I turned to tma the same way a Medieval peasant turns to Jesus christ" made me lose it
When Odysseus tried to follow Athen and she stopped him with her spear, it hurts so much :,)
The new changes really add more weight to the song being their last goodbye

Todo se ve increíble. De verdad me gusto mucho la forma en que estabas animando los mivimientos de Poseidón y toda la parte de "My Goodbye"✨✨

Hi there!
I am a student whose major project to finish their course is an animation.
I've been looking at your work as a huge fountain of inspiration! I love seeing your unfinished WIPs (abandoned or not), as they sort of "demystify" the process of animation by seeing all the shapes, squiggles and lines that formed the scaffolding throughout the making of the craft!
Seeing the WIPs makes me much more confident to trust my process and tackle down my assignment instead of procrastinating like I've been doing for so long.
So, thank you for sharing your work, and, specially, for sharing the unfinshed WIPs.
Congrats on surviving your finals, and I hope you manage it through the mid-artsyle crisis! :)
I am so sad over ruthlessness :(( this is one of the best depictions of Poseidon and such stunning animation... Love your work! ❤
Omg all of these were cooking, I love the choices you made. Poseidon was so menacing!!! And storm looked so cinematic! The end of my goodbye was gonna be so cool and dramatic too!
I have been looking for my favorite animatic of Ruthlessness specifically, but I couldn't find it anywhere on youtube. And then I realized it's here in your graveyard! It's so perfect and closest to how I imagine, so full of life and impressive like all your other animatics. So tanks for posting even if unfinished! So beautiful
(I think you're actually what got me first into Epic too, so thanks for that!)
All of your videos in this series have been a pleasure to watch and even in the WIP form your designs and storytelling concepts shine through. Truly epic work! Thank you for sharing these even if they won’t be completed it’s a beautiful thing to see!
Thank you so much for sharing your epic the musical animatics with us until now ! As always they look amazing (absolutely love your poseidon design) and i look forward to your futur animatics on whatever inspires you the most at the moment !!
Man I was excited for ruthlessness animatic, I love what is there though
RIP the WIP, praying one day they can be revived but they're amazing nonetheless and I hope you know how much we love your work!!!
Storm actually looked cool. That is one animatic I would love to see pulled from the grave, even through the rough scribbles it was clear what the was happening and the emotion.
I would have killed to see a full ruthless animatic from you 😭
even in just the storyboards, your concepts are soo cool to see, like athena slicing the tapestry of Odysseus's life and the bit where poseidon puts his elbow on the ship and tilts the whole thing, this honestly rules
I’m a big fan! You really have brought life into these characters and the songs from Epic. Thank you for sharing these. I can’t help but rewatch your videos over and over again! Wish you the best as you continue on your creative journey!
I know as an artist it's kinda sad to loose the energy in a project, and to see how much energy and effort put into a piece only for it to feel like sunk-cost. But also as an artist I love the fact that you still showed this to us, because even sketches and art studies are placed in museums. To see your process, and clearly follow the narrative and tell the emotions with just the guidelines of the head shows sooo much artistic talent and helps those that might study your work (I know there is definitely people that love how you do expressions, including me) understand how you get to the spectacular animation level your at. I know I'm excited to see your process from start to finish, for every upload you do, and if some end up in the graveyard it's still cool to see what you were envisioning as you heard the songs!
Your renditions for Epic are my favorite amongst the bunch and has inspired me so much - the nuances, the character design and compositions and the flow - I was really hoping to see Epic animated with you at the lead. I actually still play your videos whenever I get into an animation slump, and I'm always showing it to people! Sad to see you jump ship but wherever you swim to next, I'm certain it'll be great and I look forward to it! (no pressure though! Relax and do what you do, but take care of yourself for sure!)

the way you draw Poseidon is the perfect level of unsettling just god damn you are talented
