Mister Dilsby Posted July 9, 2016 Author Share Posted July 9, 2016 (edited) So, if you think you were waiting a long time for me to get to Jool--we're finally getting to the images I saw in my head a year ago when I first thought to do the mission this way. Next up, we launch some Gumdrops! And for those keeping score at home, so far we've launched one of two Jooldivers and two of four Scansats.

rlin Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 Awesome! (Though I think Kenlie's speech bubble should be a bit more yellow. That's going to be confusing.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the past year, it's just been this twice a day: "TooWHEEoo. Sweepers, sweepers, man your brooms. Give the ship a good sweepdown fore and aft and all interior ladderways and passageways. Get on it, sweepers!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AviosAdku Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 At last, the "real" work begins and with all this character work, you haven't lost a bit of your ability to show a mission to us in an engaging way, it's just like the Eve mission operations (the later phases, such as the juggling game getting the M7 ready and the landings on eve and such) in fact, for a moment (just a moment though) I forgot about the Kerbulans.

Starhawk Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 What a feeling to finally be here and ready to launch the first Gumdrop! I can only imagine how you must be feeling to have reached this point at last. And with so much style! Have I mentioned how beautiful Intrepid is lately? Also, it's kind of relaxing to not think about the Kerbulans for a little while. Happy landings! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dman979 Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Ok, @Kuzzter, serious question here: now that they're going on a surface mission, does this image have any relevance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm... I can't really say, can I? But I'd like to think that all 12 crew of the Intrepid have had a bit more character development than Enzin Ricky.

Poor Enzin Ricky. Not only is he the 13th member of the Intrepid crew, that one kerb in the red shirt that literally everyone has forgotten, but now he's going on an away mission he is almost certain not to return from. If only he had some character development..... Or a different color shirt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
something Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Yay, so after about 9 months we're finally heading for one of the jovian moons. This story must be thrilling, considering its relatively long first act. Or are we already arriving at act three? Who knows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, there are three aboard, all engineers: Looty Comder Bill Kerman, Sous-Leuti Clauselle Kerman, and... So yeah, I guess I couldn't ignore the 'red-shirted ensign' trope after all One would have to assume that pre-spaceflight Kerbals watched some kind of TV show that had that trope. Who knows, it could have even featured retired officers who served on a certain seagoing aircraft carrier? And wow it is SO much fun to fly craft in the Intrepid's hangar and out into space. Sure, it was pretty cool flying those Gumdrops aboard back in 1.0.5, but that was like watching a slideshow. Now we're really flying! Edited July 11, 2016 by Kuzzter Bill's rank, "Dislby" again...

Starhawk Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 That episode was very fun! I like what you did with the trope. I'm very pleased to hear how much you enjoyed flying the gumdrops out of the hangar. Something that cool should give you that 'epic cinematic' feel. Happy landings! (no matter what @Deddly says.)
