Road Trip [SFM] 

Hearing heavy saying he has no time for bs is total bliss.

"Why didn't you just repair the car?" For once, The Soldier of all people is asking the smart questions. XD

Nice to see Pizza Demo still running till this day, delivering pizzas.

Everytime I rewatch this I find another little detail I love about it. Heavy's slow turn and shocked almost pained face as Engie realizes he could've fixed the car. The way everything in the van moves realistically all the way from the stacks of jars and the medallion thing hanging from the rear view mirror to Snipers wife and how her ear twitches. Every face is always easy to look at to with realistic movements. Like the way Sniper gives that cheeky smile after hitting the rock(possibly on purpose). Everything about the video just drips with the time and love put into making it. One smaller thing I also really love is the music choice. My favorite by far has to be the bouncy, cheerful music at the start.

A detail I really liked: at 1:48 when the Soldier asks Heavy how to hitchhike, Heavy goes “just do this” and gestures to his hand giving a thumbs up. But at 1:56, we see that Soldier misunderstood and thought that Heavy was referring to both of his hands, so he’s holding a thumbs up while constantly gesturing to it with his other hand

I can tell this animation is beautiful as something simple like smoke particle you have to change in each frame. Each movement expression has a lot of detail and I love it.

Give my condolences to Sniper’s kangaroo wife.

I really do prefer these wholesome "we're all friends here" SFMs to the "We hate each other" ones. They've been forced to work together for at least two decades. Sooner or later, you learn to appreciate the small things.

Wasn’t expecting it to just end like that. So strange for an SFM to end peacefully.

I'm concerned that every time Sniper's Kangaroo Wife is onscreen It's always the most replayed part.

2:50 Love how Heavy just yeets Engie into the van but carefully places Soldier in.

3:51 i love the implication that it took them multiple hours to drive 20 miles

And now we have a model for Sniper's wife. I'm sure this will remain wholesome forever.

I love how Sniper's Kangaroo Wife is just accepted as being canon

The way Heavy moves Soldiers limbs like a doll into a sitting position is hilarious.

Okay, did anyone else notice that, at 3:25, Engineer licks the roof of his mouth as if he was about to say something smart-aleccy, but then realized Soldier was right, and just kind of clicked his tongue and then went "I don't know..". Very realistic and small details like that make this even better! Lots of thought and effort went into the little things!

Gorgeous. SFM is as old as the game, but still capable of excellent animations. Fine piece of work

*19-2000* reference deserves a full-lenght video.

You know it is good when the sentence mixing on Heavy is _even_ better than the animation.

Another detail that I didn't see mentioned here yet but that I really like. At 2:44 when heavy opens the door but gets blocked by engi, you can see Kangaroo Wife scooting over to the left instead of just "teleporting" when it cuts to the driving scene, like a lot of animations would do. Also I really hope we're gonna get an actual name for her at some point, even though soldier is probably gonna continue calling her Sniper's kangaroo wife.

The most impressive part of this one to me is the really nice, soft lighting. Makes the environment feel very warm and comfortable. Everyone has this nice rim lighting that makes them look almost like they're glowing (especially this short building sequence starting at 3:42). And the time of day changing really felt believable thanks to the lighting too. I also loved how the headlights looked at the end (at 3:56). Superb work as always. Feels very slice-of-life, very casual, not something that had to be carefully thought about and planned out and then meticulously animated. Very natural.

This guy might take a long time to animate but the payment is satisfaction from the viewers

Oh my god. The legendary cross over. The best SFM to ever be created. Requiem for pizza is amazing. Respect given.

Starting at 3:19, I've only JUST noticed Heavy moves his head in response to Soldier and Engineer's conversation.

This was made with love and fun, there's no other way. You cannot do something like this without passion and care for every detail. It feels realistic, some of the details that I found was: In 1:30: rubs the hand brake In 3:23: Engineer moves his tongue while thinking I loved this part, 3:16, not only Engineer forgived Soldier, but he's treating him like a bro, wholesome.

I love this channel! Eltorro64rus, Stblackst, crazyscoutFIN, Doctor Lalve, they all have a zany and wacky way of portraying these boys. But you, Kosta, make them endearing and adorable. I love these mercs so damn much, and I'm glad they got to go on an awesome adventure together!!!

Sniper having a literal kangoroo wife is just part of the Kosta's universe now *_Is nice_*

2:38 Engineer slowly getting back up

2:52 It's rather impressive heavy is able to bend soldier like that considering soldier is basically a psycopath and doesn't ever move unless told to

For some reason, I find it adorable when it's just these videos of the mercs doing everyday things like gardening, farming and going on a road trip. Celebrating the little things means a whole lot.

2:07 This is the most ambicious and unexpected SFM crossover I've ever witnessed. AMAZING!

Sentence mixed Heavy saying "I have no time for your bullshit" is the greatest thing I've heard all year.

3:45 I just fricken love how this is accurate to the game mechanics on how it literally only takes a max of three hits just to fully repair something.

3:51 Heavy blinking like a frog was incredible

Your style of animation is so unique and fluid compared to other SFM animators, I love every frame of it!

No animation has ever made me feel such sympathy for a funny little character before. Engineer’s reaction to his car being total felt absolutely real and as if it were actual person

I love how realistic the faces are! For example Engie's tongue moving at 3:24 wasn't necessary at all but it just kind of works

1:33 the breaking bad reference was just perfect

Three bros on a road trip. The beautiful story. The scenery. The comedic timing with the "PIZZAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" Demo. Everything was amazing.

1:18 I like how the hats change in the accident and stay that way until the minute 2:23

I love Soldier and Engineer's spirited dance-walk at 3:30. The optimism they have, despite having to walk 10 miles, is something wonderful! Almost makes it hard to believe they were trying to kill eachother in the previous episode. I'm glad their friendship prevailed, (and that Jolly Rancher had a spare can of RED paint to put Soldier back on the team)

The subtle twitching of Kanga-Wife's ears is such an underappreciated detail and testament to your impeccable talent as an animator. It's that kind of petty & meticulous detailing that makes these all-the-more enjoyable.

I love how sniper's "Kangaroo wife" started off as an insult, then Kitty made it literal, and the literal idea is being used more often. But yeah, the attention to detail here is amazing. Lots of subtle stuff scattered throughout that would take all day to list.

2:02 One of the best cameos I've ever seen

3:20 One of Soldier's few moments of making sense/being intelligent.

3:01 i love those kind of harmless casual conversations between the mercs.

The fact that sniper's kangaroo wife is the most repeated part is very sus

I love the detail that soldier puts his hand under his thumbs up after heavy showed him how to hitch hike

Gardener Heavy reining in Engie (hold your horses, bronco. She's married!) and Soldier having a flash of brilliance really tie the skit together. Each character has their own personality, and it really makes them feel alive. Looking forward to what happens next! And yes, TheMCzorro did a great job on some of those sentence mixes! Very cool!

3:14 Sniper's "oh fuck" smile is so genuine and perfect, literally that smile says that he is a funny guy.

The amount of details, touches, and gags you put into these animations is insane!!

This guy's a legend. He can make Heavy say 'we must hitchhike' with sentence mixing alone.

This literally proves a tf2 show would be awesome.

This is so chill and wholesome for an SFM, it's nice, honestly. Mistakes were made, but nobody holds a grudge, sniper is in a stable, supportive relationship, and then everyone goes home.

That... That was freaking beautiful. The flimsy and whacky way the car moved, the happy and cartoony aura, the breaking bad reference, even that evening was incredibly detailed, or the fact that Sniper's van is full of jarate in the most scary way possible. Thank you for still making animations, you basically skyrocketed through companies with their own buildings full of people thinking and animating. I couldn't enjoy those 4 minutes more. I'm happy to hear that you upgraded the resolution. These videos have the dignity to be watched on a tv now.

Has no one somehow not realized the 1900-2000 re-creation in the beginning because I love it. nice job and great SFM you got Kostamoinen its top quality.

i gotta admit, i didnt expect the sniper's kangaroo wife to appear again. still love the kostamoinen original characters and lore getting bigger and bigger!

I admit. When Heavy said "That was fAking cOoOol." I felt that.

2:00 fantastic reference i love that so much

dude your expressions are amazing on sfm models!!! engie doing the bottom teeth thingy around 3:50 is like a cool amount of detail and something i also frequently do lol

Engineer is really sending his condolences to Sniper’s Kangaroo Wife

a cute detail for those who didn't notice , Spy drives pass and didn't help them 2:22

Just wanted to say every video you make is fantastic, from well written stories to meme shitposts, they bring joy to my day

[2:15] This came into my memory bank a few months ago, I tried remembering where I heard the rendition and now I've come full-circle! As a whole, I heavily appreciate your animation style, may take some inspiration from all of your work!

2:50 When my friends take their sweet ass time while I'm ready to go.

the whole gang jumpin in a car that's a bit small for them and going for a joyride already gave me gorillaz vibes, then when 19-2000 kicked in it got a good laugh outa me. nice one

Engineer managed to hit every base of relatability, from Not thinking of the simplest thing of just fixing the car, to simping for the kangaroo waifu

2:30 sniper being a true lad

I loved the jazzy, sort of TF2-vibed cover of Gorillaz's 19-2000 and clear obvious reference to the music video, the Breaking Bad reference, the tiny details like engie licking the back of his teeth while thinking, the fact that their hats don't magically change back to their original owners after a frame change, accurate expressions, especially the part where engie is trying not to fall asleep at the wheel by leaning forward and focusing really hard. A lot of hard work is put into these animations and it shows

2:10 He still trying to get that pizza to the girls

0:27 I love the implication that Heavy entered through the sunroof.

It’s odd now that I think about it that others haven’t done the whole obvious reference to other sfm creatures styles and characters. Sure, we’re all got the same models, but the pizza demo is obviously THE pizza demo from a particular series. It’s good

3:09 Didn't expect the Jarate Sniper Rifle, cherry on the cake

The Cinematic TF2niverse is starting to come together and I’m all for it.

I adore the way the ears move on sniper’s kangaroo wife. Such a small detail that you wouldn’t notice first time. Keep it up!

2:38 what r u looking at 😳

2:31 When a blu engineer gets autobalanced.

3:02. If Sniper didn’t caught Engi staring at his wife’s knockers, he would punch his teeth out.

0:59 That shot of Soldier hanging his head out the window like a dog is so bizarrely adorable. I love the way you animate this guy

00:43 love the Gorillas references, music and the car movement, I freaked when I noticed it I love Gorillaz

I love how fun and relaxing these videos have been. They are such good friends and I love how they wasted so much time. Also, fun that Sniper's wife is still a kangeroo. Heavy saying he was done with Engi's bullshit was great.

Man I love the animation, the sound design, and the "Totally not Gorillaz" music. A damn good job, dude!

Love me some SFM’s that have continuity. Good stuff as always mate.

0:38 Nice remake of 2000 💀

A sequel to a masterpiece. Continuation of Sniper's Kangaroo wife. Explanation to Engie's derp face last video when smacked and his preferences. A standing here version like crawling in my crawl. A cameo of Pizza Demo from Requiem Of A Pizza. 10/10 would sit in the back of Sniper's van.

1:55 the detail of soldier still with his hand under his other hand really shows his inability to human

This is all a man really needs in this world

BRUH THE ANIMATION QUALITY IS SO MOVIE LIKE YOU COULD ANIMATE A MOVIE THIS IS AMAZING!

I’d love these shorts enough if it were just immaculate vibes and wholesome adventures, but you’re seriously one of the best animators I’ve ever seen. All the little details are dearly appreciated, and the characters are so damn lively and interesting to watch.

1:17 that sentence mixing tho

I am absolutely adoring Kosta's version of Heavy. He's like this big lovable brother to the other Mercs! Dear lord, these animation are adorable. They're just so feel-good.

The music ABSOLUTELY ELEVATED ME

Just Engineer's satisfied reaction to seeing Snipers Kangaroo wife again was perfect. Fantastic animation.

The subtle movements in the yawning and posing looks amazing! A real show of animation skill and quality. 3:51

3:24 god DAMN that tounge movement was quality. Shoutout to the kangaroo wife reference

2:07 i love the requiem for pizza reference!!

I was expecting Heavy to say "I have no time for your BS" and I was not disappointed.

Wow, you included a reference to Requiem for Pizza. Did not expect that, and now I am happy

Heavy carrying soldier into the van somehow makes me randomly says "what a great brother moment"

2:00 requiem for a pizza is cannon to this universe
