  • It’s here at long last! Happy Tugs week everyone. Apologies for the late release of this episode, unfortunately I fell victim to the SP5 upgrade for TRS19. Luckily though I was able to download SP4 again so I was able to make this episode for you. Enjoy!
    Big Mac and Top Hat go out to assist on docking a group of Top Secret naval vessels which are docking in Bigg City port. But at the same time, a well known Gangster known as Johnny Cuba drops Anker in the estuary of Bigg city port, while awaiting a tow Johnny realises something strange and he’s the only one who can act.

    I don't know if it's intentional or otherwise, but the two set critics I have for you are that you need to put something in those ugly blotches of missing texture and consider replacing the basic TS19 track for dock tracks. I could just be making an assumption and, as you said in the description, it was the upgrade that might have caused assets to get jumbled or lost. But I would definitely take some time and fix those issues.
    Other than that? Awesome stuff! The voice work is good, video production quality is consistent, and you make great use of the sets and models. Keep up the stellar performance!

    Interesting. I like how you managed to make a nearly 20 minute long episode from one of the book stories. The plot is decent with what creativity you used to fill in gaps of dialogue and story. Such as Captain Star not saying anything about the spy aside from the indirect mention of bubbles. I also noticed how you used patterns mimicked from what the characters have said in past episodes, such as Bluenose offering Johnny Cuba a spot in the Navy and Warrior explaining why he couldn't give Johnny a tow and his exclamation when he was late. Overall, I've always been curious to see an adaption like this and I think this has potential.

      Though, it’s nice that Bluenose offered a place in the navy for Johnny Cuba.

    • @LesStarport
      @LesStarport  2 роки тому +1

      That’s the whole point you saw the characters reactions to bluenose, top hat winging, even Grampus was shown to be dreading Bluenose. How it follows the timeline is quite well, Bluenose recovered from his shock, went back to his old ways and then was surprised and impressed to see what Cuba did.

    I'm wanting to do Thomas films soon including more TUGS Films Series five I still wanted to do and there's changes with Sunshine as he's visiting his creek, in a shed plus all the Star Tugs wanted to see it. No lines for Hercules though from series 4 we did.

    • @LesStarport
      @LesStarport  2 роки тому +1

      Well kiddo, all I can say is you need to work on ur series. With making tugs episodes here are some things I’d strongly recommend:
      Full Voice Cast: Reach out to fans of tugs and Thomas I’m sure some will wanna voice characters for you.
      Use modern filming equipment: You can still use stop motion but it might be ideal to use cameras that can take high quality photos. You could even go Computer animated (like I have) there are thousands of softwares you can use to film the series in EG: Trainz, Roblox and more.
      Use music from the series: a common problem I see with your videos are the lack of music usage. You can record your own (but maybe make it higher quality)
      Use sound effects and sync them with the pictures.
      Take inspiration
      Make the series genuine and not cross universe (like you did with series 4)
      Make Captain Star the narrator.
      Have Voice actors assigned to a particular character only. It doesn’t matter the number of characters they voice (just the fact they don’t all sound the same)
      And Of course, be sure to make it British sounding

    • @LesStarport
      @LesStarport  2 роки тому

      @bethania tesfai true, I totally agree. Only catch is and no offence the only way to get tugs to sound right is with British accents like heard in this episode.

    • @LesStarport
      @LesStarport  2 роки тому +2

      Because of my timeline. Logically I would have used that model, except I decided because I started the series using him. I’ll make it part of my timeline. If you visit my wiki on this series and read the Top Hat page it explains why he is in grey livery.

      Hold your horses lad, these projects take time. This episode alone took about 2 months to complete. Besides I’ve already planned ahead, you’ll find out what happens Cuba soon enough. Outback Tugs is literally cancelled due to popularity of this series and I have real life personal stuff to deal with. Hence long gaps between episodes, I’m not a wizard or magician. I can only wish I can forfill this request but it’s impossible, besides it’s my channel and I upload what I like on it.
      And incase you don’t know, my channel is about talking boats and trains (mainly relating to Tugs, the TV series). I don’t do videos solely on ocean liners, and besides I have no intention for any of those liners to make any appearances in any episodes any time soon.
      Dreadfully sorry it’s not such a bright reply, it’s just what I do on this channel.

      G’day Ian08,
      Most of these models are private. However at some point I’m thinking of releasing some in the near future.
      Now I’ve released A munitions barge, The munitions factory and Jack The Grappler. They can be obtained by visiting my Discord server (link in channel description)
      Ten Cents was released in a Christmas package by WildnorWester on deviant art. However, I’m not sure if it’s still available as I downloaded it more than a a year ago.
      Good luck Tuggin’

      Les
