I really love Ruby, me and my friends would sit around and listen to Ruby & Ruby Too, for hours. I'm surprised there isn't more fan art out there. ZBS has created such a rich universe and fun characters, it seems it would lend itself to all kinds of fan-created art. One of these years, I'll dress up as Teru for Halloween, wearing my pith helmet with purple streaks on it. Chiquita!

Bang!

Thanks for the comment. I still hold out hope I'll get to do more Ruby animations are a series. The media rights are held by another producer, for a year or two, now, but nothing has surfaced. I did like to see Ruby out, even if not my me. Thanks, again.

OMG I LOVE RUBY... please do more! She's awesome.

[DragonflyEnt]

Thanks, Orb105. I'll try to do more in 2009. I actually did a Dragonfly Flipz book of this and will post a movie of it soon. Thanks, again.

Hey this is cool. What program did you use to put it all together?

[DragonflyEnt]

I mostly used Photoshop to separate my story board drawings in elements, then I used Adobe Premiere to assemble the movie with moves.

I always liked Thomas Lopez' work. I used to talk to him quite frequently back in the '80's. I wonder if Phoenix still works there?

ZBS productions.

ZBS= "Zero Bull Shit."

Anyhow. Excellent sketch's. Not what I had envisioned, but excellent work just the same 5*****

Sweet! Nice work!

20+ years ago, I thought that with proper animation, this could be a great classic.

WOW! I haven't heard this since 1983-84 when a non-profit radio station played this episode by episode each night. It was enjoyable. I remember one episode where Ruby was flying over a desert wearing some HUGE butterfly-type wings. Very creative story. Ruby's voice was also very entertaining...crisp and clean with good color in it.

Thanks for posting this little video clip.

Have you heard anything else about being able to produce the Ruby Animated Series? I too just like everyone else, GREW UP listening to RUBY! I now live in Washington State, and when I visit Michigan every August, I have to bring my Ruby Cd's with me, so my father and I can sit and vegetate for hours. Drives our family bonkers ! LOL! GREAT JOB BUDDY! DON"T GIVE UP HOPE! WE ARE COUNTING ON YA BUDDY!

My siblings and I grew up on these... we have amazing parents. I wish the scripts had been written down (not the same AT ALL but... would be nice to have)
