tell me why this budgetless gay youtube series made for fun by a group of friends has the best editing and writing of anything i’ve watched in a year.
also tell me how this single scene can contain every single one of the top three most iconic lines in history.
edit: whoa, i didn’t expect this to blow up so quick! putting the source in the tags was a bad idea, sorry. this is brian jordan alvarez’s the gay and wondrous life of caleb gallo, and you can watch it on youtube or vimeo! he makes lots of other hilarious gay videos too, so you should check out his whole channel.
so apparently preview images for the art book releasing in july are available on amazon, and there’s a bunch of neat details in what little is available!!
•concept art for lots of scenes that would end up in episodes
•what appears to be an early version of sardonyx?
•pilot rose concepts!!
•pilot pearl art!
•pearl’s early designs toyed with ideas such as her concealing her gem with her bangs so she could look human, a conchshell inspired outfit, and multiple pearls in her hair. rebecca seems to have had a lot of trouble designing her.
•early plot ideas had the gems as beings sent from another universe to protect the human race, with a strong emphasis on “magic” as opposed to the current sci-fi tone the show eventually took
•rose would visit steven in his dreams and give him advice. whenever this happened, he would wake up surrounded by newly grown roses, which he is embarrassed of
•pilot alexandrites + an early sugilite?
•each crystal gem had a theme early on; garnet was space themed, amethyst was based on flora/fauna, and pearl was based on fire and rocks.
sapphire would probably b so patient w/ padparadscha cuz she can forsee that pad will catch up eventually, but their conversations would end up structured so weirdly lmao
This semester I assigned myself to draw Portugal in the Steven Universe style! Tbh I can’t even believe they all done SMH! Steven Universe and @rebeccasugar is a huge inspiration to me
