Description Okay, so this is the first of our 'Easter Egg' series. This is a page from my sketchbook where alot of Galactico ideas are formalised (I have to draw some because I am retarded and cannot think of something for long). Also, this is the kind of quality of things that people are too embaressed to put on DVD's, so they put them as an Easter Egg...AND IT'S EASTER. DO YOU GET IT?

Anyway I guess I better explain some of this as my handwriting is pretty illegible. Okay so this was from a while ago when I decided we needed a henchman for Rodrigo's band of scallywag's, and this is how Damon Hill was created. You can also see I drew a pirahna initally but that wasn't so hot, but might make a good extra. I use the fish body shape later on in the sketches and you might see it in a real Galactico at some point.

Little bit off topic here I know but, you know how high paid Real Madrid players are called galacticos? No, neither did we when we created the frickin' name. THANKS ALOT, SPAIN.

You can also see a very loose sort of sketch of a monkey, which, after ALOT of refining became the Glen alot of you know and love. There are also alot of notes on there but I cannot read them from the scan and I left my sketchbook at dav's house, so it's probably covered in sex by now.

Okay on the next page we have a horrible sketch of alfonso's skeleton. Couple of point here - It's probably a bit too realistic. I was trying to base it on an episode of the webcomic 'Woo...Hoo' (you should Google for it because it is twenty kinds of awesome) but it came out a bit retarded. I thought it was funny that they have boney spikes instead of genitals, for some reason. Actually, I still find that concept amusing. Also, this skeleton was done before we started animating - you can see with our screensavers that the galacticos can detach their arms like Rayman, which was done because we didn't want hell of stretchy arms bastarding up the screen like Mr. Men.

Okay so I hope you liked our first Easter Egg! I am doing some more RIGHT NOW.

haha, okay, I'm clueless, what are "Real Madrid players"? Perhaps athletes? Gameshow contestants? haha Anyhow, when I think Galactico, I think like, SPACE AGE FUN TIME, or something, due to resembling "galaxy," but ending in "o" which gives it a sense of cah-razeeeeeness

Real Madrid are a spanish football (sigh...'soccer') club who have alot of money and often pay weekly wages of 100k+ to their 'Galactico' players.
