Fan Project - The Exodite (teaser)

[No Foes Remain]

So someone posted this on reddit and damn does it look good. Seems to be (from the title and content) about the Eldar as the protagonists and with the Imperium (just Astartes so far) as the antagonists.

 

 

 

Please visit the youtube video itself as well and like it or whatever it is that kids these days do.

Well, this looks promising

[Interrogator Stobz]

Very cool.

[Pork Chop Express]

Wow, that's very intriguing. Can't wait to see more!

[Kain Mor]

Looks great! Very crisp animations.

[Dagoth Ur]

Now this looks snazzy!

[rookie40K]

Super crisp! Can’t wait to see more.

[MegaVolt87]

Very cool- I mean for Xenos I guess. 

[tangoalphatwo]

Not gonna lie, I’m diggin all these new 40k animation shorts. Can we get a feature film or tv series on streaming yet? Hell, with every company making their own streaming service, G-dubs could do their own, yeah?

I merged the two topics.

[Doghouse]

Nice, this looks very cool. it of a terminator homage going on there.

[Doghouse]

This got a second teaser and...wow.

 

[mel_danes]

Hmmm what are they speaking?

[Wulf Vengis]

Hype, my friend. They're speaking hype.

[Doghouse]

It's their version of the Tau spoken language I think, I thought that was a really nice touch if it is.

 

 

Edit: Looks like it is.

 

"We'll be publishing the lexicon our team member made so you too can know the joys of Tau'sia!"

 

Very cool! :tu:

I love how many 30-60 second beautiful clips there are by fans..that never go anywhere past that.

[Doghouse]

I think the main problem is that they take so long to produce as fans. I personally hope this comes into being simply because of the quality and attention to detail.

 

GIven that Astartes was such a huge success and Richard Boylan being given a job to produce an official series this may prove to be a new incentive to build on that promising work for a lot of these artists.

An update on The Exodite, which obviously joined WarhammerTV a while back; it's the next animation after Hammer & Bolter, and is scheduled for early next year.

 

Pumped for the classic stealth suits!

 

[StraightSilver]

I'm very much looking forward to this, but is it me or does it look very different to the original, first trailer? That seemed a lot more "grimdark" and this trailer feels a lot more "anime" - which is not a criticism, as that fits T'au perfectly, but I think I prefer the original trailer (which may still be part of the show).

[Shinespider]

I like that every article about this has to include the obligatory "Yes, we know what an Exodite is, stop asking why this isn't about Eldar" line. 

 

The character's face still looks a little too round and soft to me. It's not as bad as it was in the earlier trailers (and that one dark shot in the suit looks great,) but they still kinda look like a plush toy.

Hopefully it'll have better sound than Angels of Death.

Have to agree though, the first fan trailers looked much better than this newest one from GW.

I guess this is what happens when passion projects get picked up then hit the reality of expectations and deadlines?

[Taliesin]

I also though that trailer from a year ago was better. But what surprised me is how short this was, Warcom said there was a " huge new trailer"  and there's like 25 seconds of footage.
