For this week's update, I thought I'd share a still frame that I made for a scene in ep.12.
In the script, we have Duo shouting after Heero, but there's obviously no actual shot of that happening. Originally I was just going to edit Heero out of the room and make it look like Duo's just shouting from his bed, but I thought the joke would h...
2023-03-03 19:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostSo I haven't shared a song before it's finished before, but I just got this proof of concept from the artist we're commissioning (Valileo, check them out here). And I think it's so cool that I wanted to share with you all in this week's update!
It's unfinished and more ...

After hearing from you all on what you'd like for progress updates, I've decided to stick to a schedule and offer small updates on progress, previews, or behind the scenes looks every Friday from here on out. Rather than worry that an update is "big enough" to warrant sharing, I'll just share something new from what we're working on every Friday...
2023-02-17 20:00:05 +0000 UTC View PostSimple question. I'd like input from every Caper who sees the poll.
Since I'm now working on three episodes at once (though ep.11 is baaaaaaaasically done minus the parts I don't have lines for, which is like a third of the whole thing) I'm wondering what sorts of updates I should give. We want to keep you all more involved and up to date ...

Since we're shifting focus to working on three episodes at once while we search for a new voice actor, I felt inspired this weekend to work on thumbnails for the coming episodes, and thought I'd share with you guys.
As a bonus treat exclusively for Capers, here are the final episode titles as well. Just so you can theory-craft on what we'r...

Hey all. I figured we should share this update now rather than later.
Due to circumstances that will remain private, we need to recast our Quatre. We're thankful for all the work Egamar has done and were really excited about his performances so far for ep.11, but he will no longer be able to perform for us and had not finished recording fo...

Hey all! Recently in our Cool Capers channel on Discord, someone asked how I layer my edits, and it made me think that sharing a behind-the-scenes look at this scene would be cool.
Remember that ep.10 preview that was cut from the episode? Obviously Trowa can't be in Wing in the middle of Antarctica, so we altered the script to put him dri...
2023-01-14 20:27:58 +0000 UTC View PostHey, Cool Capers! Here's a two-minute finished preview of Ep.11 exclusively for you guys, for all your support. I wanted to release it at Christmas, but we fell behind getting Santa With Muscles done and had to focus on that. (If...

I think it's been long enough now that all of you have had a chance to watch Ep.10. I've been holding off talking about my favorite part of this episode so as to not spoil anyone. But now, let's talk about it!
We chose to bring Sylvia back because we were so impressed with Natepeach's performance on such a minor character in Ep.9, where sh...

Now that episode 10 is out I'm letting Grey take a rest after all his hard work and I'm taking over the Patreon! My goal is to update you all ev...
It's been too long, and we're happy to finally have a new episode for all of you who stuck with us. We also made sure to include everyone who has been a patron in the last two years in the end scroll, even if you aren't currently a patron. We felt it was only fair considering how long we made you wait. Everyone contributed, and everyone deserves...

Ep.10 will release this Saturday. It'll be available on both our website and Vimeo. If you have a different idea for where to release it as well (that isn't Youtube), let us know in the comments.
This only happened because of fans like you guys sticking with us and encouraging us to keep going. I cannot possibly thank you enough.

As we did for Ep.9, we want to celebrate the impending release of Ep.10 with a handful of finished screenshots from the episode with absolutely zero context. This'll be our new tradition right before new episodes release, so all you Cool Capers have a sneak peek that doesn't outright spoil things.
As for Ep.10's release, I don't yet have a...

Hey all! Exciting news to share:
MSAGW Ep.10 is nearing completion.
Our final recording date is tomorrow, and barring any unforeseen problems, we're on track for release in the first week or so of October. We're very excited for you to see it, and will decide as we get closer to release how we'll actually release it. As...
So, I realize it's been like a year and a half since my last edit update, but I decided to still name this one "#3". If you forget #2, don't worry, that scene was cut from the script. Whoops.
I wanted to showcase this visual edit because it was made entirely by LuckyBlue, who is taking a more active role in working on MSAGW to help me make...
2022-09-01 17:01:03 +0000 UTC View PostQuick post to share for everyone who wasn't able to make our panel discussion on the Gundam Wing fan server on Discord yesterday.
In case you weren't there, we finished the Q&A with a little surprise: the opening eyecatcher for Ep.10 (with Hiroko Moriguchi's fantastic jazzy cover of Just Communication) followed by an announcem...
2022-08-29 17:32:03 +0000 UTC View PostAs promised, we have one last video preview for the upcoming episode ten of MSAGW. I wasn't originally planning on making another preview, as I don't want to spoil too much of the episode before you get to see it in its full context, but in case you missed it, our last episode preview actually... uh, isn't in the episode anymore...

Hey all. For your patience while we get our act together, I want to give you an update on where ep.10 of MSAGW stands, when we expect it to be ready, and what you can expect between now and then.
Ep.10 was rewritten, but the script is now 100% FINISHED.
Those of you who have kept up with our previous updates should k...

2022-04-01 20:08:50 +0000 UTC View PostToday is LuckyBlue's birthday (go harass him on Discord, he loves that!) and for the occasion, I wanted to give something to all of you who have continued to support us after our channel was taken down. It's a short minute and a half clip from Ep.10, made entirely with edited still frames. It's fully finished, though I may do a couple retakes wh...

Hey everyone.
It's been a bit since we gave you any updates. That's entirely my fault. Some changes have come to my life that I wasn't prepared for, all while I waited for the Youtube situation to resolve itself. It clearly hasn't, and I believe now we truly have no choice but to continue without getting our channel back.
With a memb...

I apologize for the lack of updates in the last couple weeks. I've been trying to stay focused and work on content with as much free time as I can while simultaneously trying to get our Youtube channel back.
But I'm happy to announce that our next Movie Night Mondays video will release today at 5PM EST on ...
2021-08-23 17:08:55 +0000 UTC View PostSo this is the first three minutes of the episode, minus the eyecatcher opening. I may make some tweaks to lipflaps I don't like before release, but otherwise, this section is the final product.
We've had this bit recorded since March but it's a difficult part to edit due to all the motion. The hallway in particular took me over a week by ...

While I was visiting my parents this past week, I had my old PC fixed up and shipped there so I could work on Ep.10. Overall, I probably got about 30hrs of total work in, and I'm happy to share that I'll have a full, finished three minute preview of the episode for you by this weekend.
This preview includes the clip you se...

Assuming you've watched our newest Sowing Discord today, you no doubt have questions about the ending. Questions like:
What is "G-Unit"?
"Dual Story G-Unit" is a manga set within the Gundam Wing universe, but in a different part of space. It stars an entirely new cast protecting Colony MO-V from OZ Prize. It was publish...
In the wake of our problems with Youtube, we felt inspired to revisit our first ever Sowing Discord, which was in itself a tongue-in-cheek response to our problems with Youtube two years ago. Think of this as sort of a direct sequel to Sowing Discord v.1, starring all the Gundam pilots.
We recorded this script alongside ep.10, making it ea...

2021-07-14 20:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostHey all. Sorry for having nothing but bad news lately. It's been too difficult to work on Ep.10 with the specter of a copyright takedown hanging over our heads.

With our channel's future currently up in the air, I spent the last few days putting together a professional-ish looking website to host all of our content safely away from Youtube. The only reason I was able to do this so quickly was because I decided not to work on it from scratch, which was the original plan. Instead, I purchased a Wordpress ...
