Ricker Than Fiction is a commentary on franchise fatigue and AI's attempt to fix it to give the fans what they want...even though they will complain anyway. I got to design James Gunns model for the episode which made for a fun animated Hollywood villain. The first concept is a rough first pass I did on Baron Thistles headquarters that evolved a bit further than this but stayed within the general setup here with thistle missile launchers, half organic cactus and half military fortress. Next is Baron Thistle, Rob Schrab had an initial rough sketch that I elaborated further on. The Weed Minion, Baron Thistles disposable organic henchmen came together through many rounds of drawings with the help of Doug Olsen, Adam Burnier and myself. Lastly is a rough color script I put together for a sequence Doug Olsen boarded of RaM getting digitized into the movie.
