Newgrounds.com — Everything, By Everyone.

Just released my newest toon, Explosion Force 5 2: Explode Harder. Join Brick Benchpress and Granite Stone in their newest action packed extravaganza.

Starring:
SRM as Brick Benchpress
Cousin Mel as Granite Stone
Jethro Jebediah as the Commissioner
Jebediah as thug #1
Greg the Llama as Llama the Greg

This is actually a sequel to Explosion Force 5 which I made 2 years and 8 days prior to Explode Harder.

Personally I think of this as a great evolution - the humor is much snappier and quicker than it has been in a while, the art is a huge improvement, and the backgrounds actually have some attention and detail in them for once. I used proper perspective (vanishing points and the like) to get them to look right and used a lot of reference pictures. SRM can actually turn around in 3D now, but it's only in the flash for a second or so, unfortunately. Also, the long zoom shot is making fun of the film Ultraviolet, but instead of going into a character's eye it goes into their ear. Absolutely terrible film; watch it for a good time.

Anyway, hope you guys like it - review it and/or leave comments here. Also, check out the kickass poster my good buddy xander1062 put together for it:

Thanks :) Always love to hear from a loyal fan.
I need to put Wuggeh in something new; it's been forever since I've used him in anything.

Thanks!

As for your suggestion - I always listen to suggestions, but I think it needs a little more development. Keep it up though :)

Hey Battosai, I just realised this after watching explosion force three times, cthulu and just recently your Cod4 SRM. You seem to mention people watching lost alot any reason or do you just like to put it in at random?

May. 20, 2009 | 12:57 AM Battosai810 responds:

Thanks for noticing - I actually changed a line in Explode Harder just to make it again.
I made the joke in the CoD4 flash just because it was the first show that came to mind. I put it in the Cthulhu flash just as a bit of a running gag, as with Explode Harder.
I have never, ever, ever seen the show, but Xander1062, a close collaborator of mine, absolutely loves it. If he didn't like it so much I probably wouldn't use the reference as often.
And I like putting things like that in my flashes so people like you notice them :)

i got a new ideea its called srm 3d

May. 20, 2009 | 5:35 PM Battosai810 responds:

What would that entail? I'm working on giving SRM some dimensional space and making him less 2d.

Vote 5! awesome!

May. 24, 2009 | 9:08 PM Battosai810 responds:

Please do!

Oh, well about you never seeing lost before, trust me it's really good. Just if you started watching from any episode but number 1 it will make no sense and I doubt you would enjoy it. You'll probobly see the smoke monster or something and just shut it off.

May. 26, 2009 | 1:36 PM Battosai810 responds:

Yeah, that's what my friend who's a hardcore Lost fanatic says. Watch it from the very beginning or else it's incomprehensible. I just don't have the time to dedicate to watching 4 seasons of an hour long show. Somehow managed to squeeze in the time this past weekend to watch 24 episodes of a really girly anime (I honestly don't know why I loved it) but I doubt I'll get that time again.
