Last week, we brought you some fantastic character art for Ninjasauras Rex, an original animated series being developed by Emmy Award winning director Frank Paur (HBO's Spawn, X-Men: Evolution) and Steven Meyer (The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes). Today, we bring you some artwork for the pilot episode of the show!
The character descriptions that came with the concept art gave us a taste of the overall tone of the show. The pilot synopsis gives us even more insight into the relationship of the characters and their dynamics, the amount of action we can expect, as well as the mysterious world it takes place in. The dino-warrior series takes place in what seems like Feudal Japan, but in actuality, is a world where the country has become a mix of different races and languages. "This is what happened to Mad Max after everybody got their shit together." There's some pretty exciting possibilities with this concept -- the remnants of "old" technology going up against warrior steel and combat, the main character himself being the result of some left over Jurassic Park-type experiments.
Check out the new artwork from the series, and let us know if you'd watch this show!
The World of NINJASAURAS REX
It had been so long since the tyrants took over, most people had given up on ever being freed. Fractured kingdoms formed into even greater empires... Military powers so great that any opposition to them would be suicide. Caught in the middle are the people of the land, helpless to do anything. But a small group of the impoverished refuse to give in. What they lack in numbers they make up for in skill and rage toward the injustices of their land. They are the Ninja, the strongest and deadliest fighting force in history. However, the Empire’s numbers continue to grow and the battle is quickly being lost. The Ninja need a new warrior, a born leader, somebody who can show them the path to victory... What they’ll get is a girl and her dinosaur.
Here's some art from the first Episode:
