PIKMIN BITS CHARACTER REFS

From left to right we have: Captain Karolyn, Krik, Notch, Drip and Neuron. These are the main characters of Pikmin Bits, pillaging the land to make pokos and build bio-mechanical creatures to dominate the land. They're the good guys!

MEET THE STARS

Captain Karolyn - Often dreaded by her boss and co-workers for her overwhelming persistence and the chaos it bri...

PRODUCTION JOURNALS - "Bomber Folly" (FINISHED)

(EDIT: This Bit is hereby COMPLETE!

LINK: https://mega.nz/file/vQsBFQ5T#WE31OizlTbuDntlUYrkMSKrBqGhYWgGODyK0Aiuj2iY)

I want to get a good backstock of Pikmin Bits, so I started another one right after finishing up "Krik's Kid". I drew out a 3-point outline, and doodled f...

This idea has been sitting on the backburner for a bit, actually being slated for the bi-week I was working on "The Bulbear Gets Bul-BOMBED". I ini...

PRODUCTION JOURNALS - "Vi's Lunch Break" (SHELVED)

WHAT UP, SUCKAS!

The poll I made had Vi as the second most requested behind Pikmin Bits, and while I'm still working on Pikmin Bits, I lined out the next Vi Bit quickly in a storyboard.

And here's the animation for this version.

BEHIND THE SCENES - "Maple Vs. The Soldier Constructs"

Seeing as how Karolyn could pass as a Pikmin character, I wanted to take on The Legend of Zelda with another character, so I chose Maple. I wanted to try animating something that was primarily action-oriented, while also simplifying a TOTK design. The Solider Constructs looked like they'd be fun to see get bashed, so I chose those.

BEHIND THE SCENES - "Swooping Snitchbug Snipe", "Celebrating 1,000 Followers on Twitter"

Heyo! These two were much shorter and simpler than the previous Pikmin Bit, so they're gonna be bunched together. These two Bits weren't changed drastically, just a few light pose changes and an update on how Karolyn's hair was drawn.

We're starting with "Swooping Snitchbug Snipe". I wanted to exact my vengeance on the Swooping Snitchbug, especially after they became insufferable in Pikmi...

BEHIND THE SCENES - "When a Bulbmin Grows Up"

Welcome! This time, we're looking into production deets on "When a Bulbmin Grows Up".

This idea came from reading the Piklopedia entry on the Bulbmin, and noticing a horrid detail. I sketched out some initial poses and gestures to get a good feel down.

I texted the idea to a friend, "I've ...

BEHIND THE SCENES - "Into the Bulborb's Eye"

HEY-HO! Let's take a peek into production pieces from the very first Pikmin Bit!

As I've mentioned in the description for the YouTube upload of this Bit, this was a brief animation based on when I was first playing Pikmin, and I wanted to draw it. I started doodling a page worth of poses and expressions on Pikmin and a Bulborb.
