CHILDREN: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack, Part 1

So at some point in developing my idea, the ending evolved from "kids scream and yell louder," to "kids scream and yell and also there's explosions," to "giant volcanic/thunderstorm cloud of fury with kids inside," to "kids go giant monster all-out attack." Originally, I saw this as them just becoming two giant fire monsters or something like the first concept monster there.



I didn't like it very much though. Also animating two giant fire monsters would get boring and tedious, in the bad way. Then I remembered how at some point before the summer I randomly described the fight as similar to a thunderstorm fighting a volcano; there's no winner, lots of destruction, and it doesn't entirely make sense. All good things. The sister already had her static-electricity stuff by this time, so the brother would be the volcano dude.



So my attempt at drawing the sister as a giant lightning monster was better, but not actually all that different from how I originally thought the titan would look. Also, it would suck to have to animate that in every way. So my brain wasn't working, but the wonderful Robyn's, fantastic Jeremy's, and tubular cousin Kyle's brians were. And they all made insanely badass titans.

Kyle's Version:


Basically equal massive amounts of extremely different kinds of badass.

There's five more pictures, but the blog won't let me add more to this post. Also I'm tired and sick, so I'll do it later.
