#StuGo- Pantelevision
Boarders @natemorebikes.bsky.social and Ron Stanage made a channel surfing episode with mostly reused designs (heroes)- so not much BTS- But here are designs by @sbosma.bsky.social and @nooree.bsky.social, and a pick-up script made by Bobby Mageau that I thought looked funny.

Graphic cards by @sbosma.bsky.social. Lullah's club- lines by Jesse Balmer / paint by Yudi Chen. KORM's design took some back and forth between Sam and @wolfhard.bsky.social, but the only evidence I have left of that exchange is this sketch of a jaw.

"Deep Trent" was one of the first episodes I got to color supervise on #StuGo! Though I joined midway through the season, the team was so incredibly welcoming (and SO talented, holy moly). Excited to share more as new episodes come out! Art directed by @sbosma.bsky.social
#StuGo - Disaster Play - BTS 1
@sbosma.bsky.social put a lot of thought into what exactly would differentiate a Chimp from a Chimp-Mutant. Here is some of his previs.
Final design by Justin Noel, color by Emily Wang (who I think had the nail polish breakthrough).

BIG MITCHELL!! We had no idea what kind of Mutant he should be, but Sam saw it in his mind very clearly.

I'm gonna start posting behind the scenes/making-of stuff from this first season of StuGo. I'm about 6 behind so get ready for a picture dump
Normalize thinking, "none of my business."
I'm not quite sure how to start posting about STUGO, but I guess I'll just get into it. Here are some early designs for mutants. The main goal with them was to push the specific animal strangeness, picking a feature of each animal to hone in on (shark's weird forehead, gator's gullet, etc).
