Making of Doomsday

[SweaterSwagg]

Guys be patient. I know firsthand how long this crap can take, there's ALOT more to it than you think, not to mention he's a grown man with a job and other priorities. This ain't sprite tweening, it's so much more.Plus the render times will be FOREVER whether he likes it or not, so just chill out and go watch some Sonic 06 rants or Playthroughs.

[xShadowParadox]

I have no idea what your timescale is for this project. Could you give us a vague idea so we know how much longer? After all, it's been nearly a year... have you given up?

[adilsongabe]

There will be a second part? *----*

[NikoBelic4]

How long did it take you to do this project? did you work with a team, or by yourself ?

[arlobo1]

@NikoBelic4 they only are 2

[NikoBelic4]

@arlobo1 oh, all this took two people, wow. i seriously commend you guys with making this with two people. this must have taken you a while to finish!

[marioroxmysox]

Hey Major, can you put up the Classic Tonado-1 model (1:06 - 1:20) for GMod with and without the rocket thruster and take away the master emerald holder?

[IwssGaming]

MajorDump how do you get it so you can see the textures on the metal parts like in the video on the eggman robot it looked like full metal,

[SonicShadowSilver365]

I've got to admit, these videos are by far the best sonic animations ever. You should get hired to work for SEGA and make some kind of legit Sonic short for the games. Like Sonic 1, 2, CD, 3 (and Knuckles), and 4: Episodes 1 and 2 (and unlikely future episodes). Maybe even others too.

[TheCPKStudios]

when will part 2 be done?

[BoriquaBoY34]

@mauw360 he's going for the original sonic style with modern sonic models. Originally, super sonic's eyes were green, so he's using that style.

[BoriquaBoY34]

@MajorDump hey man can you tell me where I'd be able to find the song in this video?

[alexiscastanedahello]

so when is part 2 coming out

[mauw360]

Why are super sonic's eyes green? They should be red.

[zerogenhunt493]

So is part 2 something you plan on doing someday? I just want to know if you may do it someday because that would stop people from complaining.

[SweaterSwagg]

Hey Major if you ever feel like people are being jerks or obnoxious about part 2, just remember: the SMBZ guy (Alvin-Earthworm) has it worse. Lolz.

[residentevilSOS]

how long did it took you to finish Doomsday part 1 and is it really complicated to do this animation?

[tmwyt]

Who made this version of the death egg theme? are they on youtube?

[residentevilSOS]

what program or what did you use to make sonic animations?

[Themisteryification]

when you are going to release the part 2?

[Frannkybob]

@SpecialOperations can you update the Model for sonic to be classic? Or is that too hard? I have a feeling it would be hard. Also I found a little 'bug' in your Super Sonic Model as it has Green eyes rather than red.

[prodigy10690]

What software did you use to create this masterpiece?

[CyanLaserFan10]

@MajorDump so wen is part II is comin out?

:D

[Hiigaran05]

What application was used?

[prawnshaggers]

when is this coming out (part 2)

[343TheSentient]

New animation please :)

[PhoenixKing0617]

You shoulda kept model 1 super sonic because his hair quills resemble Sonic 3 super sonic but hey this is a modern version so what the hey

[PhoenixKing0617]

@darkdragonballs Keep in mind that in Sonic 3&K his eyes were green When he was super (or hyper)

[birdsofafeather1990]

It would be great if there was actually a full-length animated movie based on Sonic 3 & Knuckles. It would be exactly like your work, which I must say is very good indeed.

[SweaterSwagg]

Hey MD don't you think those comments saying you should replace SEGA and things radical like that are annoying?

[MajorDump]

@SweaterSwagg

Just the ones where people are saying a fictional anthropomorphic blue hedgehog shouldn't breath in space.

[DarkHedgie]

@MajorDump Which makes me curious though, what messed up theory does SEGA have for them breathing in space? Is there really air in space in his world? ._.?

[NikoBelic4]

@DarkHedgie that is called video game logic sir, just plain video game logic.

[DarkHedgie]

@NikoBelic4 Screw physics then, SEGA could just say Sonic and the others can breathe the stuff in space ._.

[NikoBelic4]

@DarkHedgie as a game designer in training, i would like to say that logic is one of the most important things that is needed in video games, anyway it could be that because of the chaos emeralds, him turning into super sonic could give him oxygen to breathe in space.

[DarkHedgie]

@NikoBelic4 Then how do you explain before he transformed and how in SA2B he was up in space on the ARK and able to breathe the whole time, even on the exterior of it?

[NikoBelic4]

@DarkHedgie good question indeed. Again, nothing is more important than putting logic in making a video game.

[CapoeiristanoBrasil]

wat game is this/

[Cleverconveyence]

I WANT TO BELIEVE

[BLACK3Yz]

i really hope u land a deal with sega to re-make sonic 1 - 3 and sonic and knuckles, i would SOOOOOOOOO BUY THAT GAME! and it would be nice if you landed a sonic the hedgehog theater movie!!

[natedeanmaan]

I hope you get the second part up soon! I loved the 1st one a lot!

[JaredHedgehog]

Dude, do you use Blender for your animations? Only wondering. :D

[marioroxmysox]

Can you do a remake of part 1 with the classic Sonic model?

[ultravictor1]

what program your use to do this?

[AerobianAngel]

Considering the epicness of your work, I feel honored that my animations are in the related videos section. Keep up the great work on your animations, MajorDump! Whether or not you finish this, you've got a large following to back you up the whole way!

[Sonic34555]

EVERYONE PART 2 IS NOT COMING

If You Go To His Doomsday Video and READ the description you would know why

[darkspinessonic35]

@Sonic34555 While that was said, he also noted that since his job moved him away from animating, he was hoping to come back to finish this up. Especially since, in this video here, he got his hands on that new model to use for Part 2.

[Sonic34555]

@darkspinessonic35 maybe but most likely he wont

[ultranx2010]

@Sonic34555 did you read this description and watch the video and see the new models at the end? he's continuing it, otherwise would he put new models for part 2 in the video as a surprise?

[Sonic34555]

@ultranx2010 maybe but most likely not

[Ketch1730]

part 2 is going to be the best thing ever made

[TheGRI7]

Hey , when the Part 2 will be ready?

[Blackshadow363]

How much looooongerrrr!!!! :(

[crystalphoenixalpha1]

Interesting behind-the-scenes bits to look at! I'll be looking forward to when Part 2 comes out, no matter how long I'll wait!

[SweaterSwagg]

To everyone asking what program he uses, it's Autodesk Maya.

[Blackshadow363]

New sonic models look so much better. And WHEN IS PART 2 COMING?! D:

[tailsnicthehedgehog]

What programs do you use?

[gjtrue]

@MajorDump I hope you make more "way past cool" Sonic goodies! Will you continue "The Doomsday Zone" film?

[SRB2fan100]

What Program Did you use??

[THEsuperMATTHEWshow]

this should be a vid in sonic generations or cutscene

[reg00d3]

when is part 2 coming

[waltdisney19282008]

Part 2 is actually Still Alive? QUICK! SOMEONE GET PART 2 SOME P0RTAL CAKE! NOW!!!

[sonicandsally11]

What  is this music, p.s you are amazing!!!

[Hitsugaya256]

this would make a badass Sonic 3 movie.

[TheMorningshadows]

I can has part two? D:

[TomicTheHedgehog]

When will part 2 be uploaded? :D

[supersonic25730]

wots at da end

[MysticYokuo]

Very cool.

[SBroproductions]

is that model from Unleashed or Colors? looks like unleashed to me.

[Fanime456]

@SBroproductions its from SSBB

[SBroproductions]

@Fanime456 the new model not the old one.

[LiamKawa]

Does this mean we can expect a part 2?

[LuisAngelAlcantrara]

coool



[sondowultimate]

Hey what remix was that you use in this video

[SpecialOperations]

Hey Major...I was wondering...how did you animate Sonic's eyes? I had a pain in the arse to do it and nothing. Please help.

[MajorDump]

@SpecialOperations

Hey there. I have controls set up to offset the UV coordinates of sonic's left and right eye. Essentially scrolling the texture of his eyes left, right, up, and down. Since the whites of his eyes are the same colour, I'm able to do it rather seamlessly.

[DashtheHedgeh0g]

@MajorDump so are you still working on part 2

[mariosonicfreak]

@MajorDump when will part 2 be up ?

[Sonicyay4]

@MajorDump And please don't forget to make Super Sonic's eyes red. In games Sonic Adventure-Present, Super Sonic's eyes are red.

[Simplecompexity]

@MajorDump are you gonna upload part 2?

[TheSuperMegaUltraMan]

@MajorDump On an unrelated note, and not to be impatient, but how far have you come in the making of Part 2?

[darkdragonballs]

@MajorDump you do know dat supersonic's eyes are red

[IRAngelFan]

are u still making part 2

[mechashadow]

Where'd you get the Death Egg remix from?

[Zantom07]

@mechashadow OCRemix. It's called Chromium Asphyxiation.

[Blackshadow363]

When will part 2 be uploaded? :D

[Sonic34555]

@Blackshadow363 read the description of doomsday zone part 1

Maya is annoying

[MajorDump]

@Sonic34555 I'm not sure where you're getting your information from, but I never said that.

[Sonic34555]

@MajorDump well you said maya is tiring you cause you work all day on maya

[MajorDump]

@Sonic34555 Being tired of something doesn't mean it annoys you. I love maya, but when I was using it day in day out it gets to be a bit much in your life.

[Sonic34555]

@MajorDump oh srry

the point is, yor not doing the doomsday anymore

[segajeep]

Go knock on Sega's door and tell them you are going to head up the remainder of Sonic 4's development. You did a better job of modernizing the classic sonic than they did.

[AerobianAngel]

@segajeep

I could've sworn that I was watching Sonic instead of playing the game.

[Excalibur5k]

could you make him go hyper sonic in part 2?

[Stellerman7]

I thought you weren't gonna finish this, glad you changed your mind. :)

[MarioSonic2010]

Sonic's eyes turn red when he's Super Sonic.

[PlatinumClaw999]

@MarioSonic2010 actually back during the Genesis era, sonic eyes were black and when he transformed into super snoic, his eyes turned green. His eyes turned red when his design was updated.

[QCDeViLMaN666QC]

Wooot part 2 gonna happen <3

[Nicolasduca]

what is the surprise at the end?

[Enrecave]

Dude, that tornadow is awsome, i caint wait, i do miss the brawl model though.

[Espalicious]

Oh my this looks absolutely amazing! Can't wait till the part 2! Love the accurate model of the old Tornado there <3

And the song (Death Egg Zone-remix) kicks ass!

[Jigsaw5999999999]

respect

[ToxicBear]

hey, just wanted to say congratulations on the hard work u put into this. it's all very appreciated since ur bringing back what was going on in my head while i played that stage as a kid. keep it up and all the best! :)

[Leishmaniasisably]

Why did you make this and how long did it make? Just wondering... the video's awesome.

[TripleWalkthroughs]

i bet it will be AWESOME! btw take your time on it. no sense wasting it by rushing through it! plus it will look even better if you just do it at your own pace.

[Blackshadow363]

So is this basically a little hint on part 2? I'm really looking forward to it by the way! :) (Please Respond.) Oh, and don't forget ti make the eyes red this time, JK. Models look better. More... Modern Sonic.

[ScionCrimsonWind]

Are you planning to use Hyper Sonic in part two at any point? Not many people seem to recognize that the hyper form even existed anymore. Sad thing really, it's far more impressive than just the Super Form. (just please... be sure to not make the mistake most people do in thinking the Super Emeralds are a separate set of gems. The Super Emeralds are the Chaos Emeralds with the Master Emerald's power split between them. Less control, more chaos, more power)

[jaouaddd]

You gotta continue this shit man. That is seriously the best death egg music I heard ever. Sooooo epic!!!!!

[BingBangPoe]

This is what SEGA should be actually doing, a enhanced remake of the Genesis Trilogy of Sonic the Hedgehog.

Nice work man!

[KyubiNarutoUzumaki]

Is that game?

[KitsuneNights]

And this STILL looks kickass!

[JayFoxFire]

WOW, awesome

[moesamuri]

Ever thought about doing a mock of the Classic Sonic design from Sonic Generations for this piece?

[Toonami198]

Are you currently making part 2?

[zecle]

[Technoguy3]

You are amazing.

[warlock923]

[TheChowderman]

[SuicideSeason7]

[SuicideSeason7]

[DarkSonicGold12]

[MajorDump]

@DarkSonicGold12

Back then I was. Now I'm using 2011

[bub2kman1]

@MajorDump how do you make these,please respond back

[twilightzoney]

So you used brawl sonic and Unleashed Sonic cool should make your own models though. For the Sonic and Tails stuff other wise really cool.

[TheEvilReverend]

That's cool, dude. I'm workin' in Maya right now in my 3D modelling classes, so I know it can be a hassle buildin' some of these things, but you pull it off insanely well.

[MaddZekrom999]

Whats the music

[hondraejordan95]

the sonic modles looks sooo awesome ^_^

[GioShadowGolden]

which is the remake or remix of that death egg from Sonic 3 & Knuckles?

this incredible! ;)

[ultranx2010]

You rule! Can't wait for part 2!

[CAOTBY209]

make part 2

[donicx1]

your are extremely talented

[HypersonicHero]

So I came to your channel, not expecting anything new, and all of a sudden, THIS.

[kepple23]

yes

[MrPibePlay]

awsome you are great

[HyperShadicX]

Man I wish I knew how you did your animating. Sonic's expressions look spot-on on that Unleashed model. :D

[moesamuri]

Name of song please. I know its a Sonic 3 death egg zone remix, but which one?

[truemetalsonic]

your probely asked this alot but are you making part 2? :\

[SonicFreak77]

so a model for part 2...are you going to finish this now? :D it would be awesome!

[SweaterSwagg]

Did you model Sonic and Tails?

[nucleardeath07]

Damn. You have some serious skills.

[moesamuri]

Hey have you ever thought of persuing a career in game development/ or design? ;:)

[MajorDump]

@moesamuri

Why on earth would I do something like that...

[moesamuri]

@MajorDump Becuase you've got skills dude! This is absoulutly amazing. To this day I still watch the 1st prt of Doomsday and I get blown away everytime

[RideThunderRoad]

@moesamuri The description on the first vid says he is working at BioWare, so um, yeah...

[moesamuri]

@RideThunderRoad hahahahahahaha!

[trackddiesel]

@MajorDump Part 2 please!!! =[

[TheRagingLion]

@MajorDump Can you add Hyper Sonic.

[moesamuri]

Dude, please finish this

[lukethefluke7]

The new model of sonic looks better than anything sega's animators have done so far, that says alot don't it? xD

[Neon2314]

@lukethefluke7 So you are saying that his model looks better than the Sonic Colors model? And the Unleashed model? Gotchya

[NeroTHChannel]

@lukethefluke7 I think that model is from SSBB.

[SweaterSwagg]

Can you help me with Maya?

[EnXh94]

is this a death egg zone music remix? IT sounds EPIC O_O

[raysmashbrawl176]

still it looks awesome!



[ChaosMarioBros1]

Does this means that Part 2 is on the way?

[Fiamonder10DX]

Absolutely beautiful.

[thesoniczone11]

Hey when you make Pt 2. this is a simple request. Make regular sonic's eyes black. I dont have anything against green eyes. this is justto fit in with how things were back then. and MAKE HYPER SONIC!!!!

[MoonWalkingDino]

Awesome! I subscribe the day before and a video pops up the next day! :D

[MoonWalkingDino]

@MoonWalkingDino The new Sonic model looks awesome btw! :)

[SonicGenesis89]

@tudssquadbusiness If you ever played Sonic 3 And Knuckle's you'd know that Super Sonic had "Green" eyes in that game which was in 1994. So originally his first eye color was green and it debuted in S3&K. Since this CGI movie is based on one of the scenes in that game its more than fitting for him to have green eyes. Personally I like Super Sonic having green eyes more than red. When he and Shadow are super together they look to much alike. Green also just looks nicer and more appealing to me.

[TheSonicdude97]

That's one awesome, fresh looking Sonic model you got for part 2,

ROCK ON!!!

[SilverXy7]

Glad to heard your gonna finish this, I hope your job goes well for you at bio ware.

[AnubusStar]

Sega should be shitting their pants, knowing they don't have you as an animator working for them. XD

[sonicshooter15]

out of all the companys that coulda picked ya bioware did...really good for you

[SteamTMH]

GO MAJORDUMP!!!

[UltimateLF]

New Super Sonic model is awesome,btw, i love green eyes it makes him look like Super Saiya...oh i mean like Soper Sonic from S&K =))

[Whackjood]

"Part 2"

Ah, so you ARE going to finish this! Fantastic!

[srb2Espyo]

Sooo... Why aren't you an animator at SEGA yet?

[Winduct]

Holly Molly! These are terrific. Great job, Sonic's design looks like SSBB.

[ArtFenixAsordis]

Epic!

[YouDuck2345]

"New Sonic model for part 2"

"part 2"

I'm sorry, whaaaaaaaaat?

Its things like this that make me wonder, why the hell do Sega keep sonic down with their mediocre games? (werehog, swords, air boards and evil monsters voiced by dan green e.g) If its because of poor staff with plot bad ideas then why do they not employ people like THIS?!?! Because theres clearly alot of people out there that still care for sonic and would likely do a better job.

Don't get me wrong though they've been going in the right direction with colors, sonic 4 and this years 20t
