#vile faculty
Here it is! Dash Haber is such a fun character to draw and his and Zacks dynamic was super fun in their episode! I had a blast animating Carmen Sandiego character again after such a long time!
The audio is from Community :)
I hope you all like it!
After many months I’m finally working on another Carmen Sandiego animation! It isn’t done yet (though it should be in the next couple days) but I thought I’d share one of the finished frames because I put far too much effort into the lighting lol!
wait how did the faculty explain why carmen wasn’t named black sheep anymore? did they just tell her she woke up one day and wanted to be called a radically different name and everyone just went along with it?
I like to imagine it went kind of like when they told the graduation class the true meaning of V.I.L.E. but with anger not pride. Like:
“We have a new enemy.” -Dr.Bellum
“She use to be one of us.” -Coach Brunt
“Many of you may know her.” -Countess Cleo
“She went by black sheep.” - Shadowsan
“She know goes by.” - Maelstrom
“Carmen Sandiego.” -all five say together
At the edge of Summer.
May I offer you some Bellums.
My perpetual love for these rowdy ones <3
We are approaching one-year-anniversary of CS finale faster than ever…how time flies.
Back at it once again~
I can’t believe summer’s long gone now, it’s almost one-year anniversary of my Carmen Sandiego watch (since I started to watch this series last October). O how time flies,,,
CS artdump <3
“mm, papers”
VILE FOUND FAMILY AU TEA PARTY
Bellum: Maelstrom, pass me the sugar
Maelstrom: Cream as well? Cleo pass me the sugar bowl
Cleo: this is ridiculous, the sugar bowl’s full of plastic cubes and Saira, your cup’s empty.
Coach Brunt: Now, now, you heard the professor, pass him the sugar bowl. We all want Lambkins’ tea part going smoothly.
Black Sheep: You want more tea Shadowsan?
Shadowsan: As long as I’m the one who’s brewing it

The Carmen-Sheena Relationship we deserved could’ve had
The Lucky Cat Caper:
[Carmen Rolls window down during high speed chase]
“Hey there, seen any stamps lately pretty kitty?”
“Can you PLEASE return my hairclips?”
- They have prank wars and Carmen makes the effort to literally steal and send her stuff back to VILE
- Sheena sent her a framed photo of herself
- Carmen sends VILE headquarters a video of her crying over a “Sheena shrine”
- Them wearing something from each other every time they meet
- Carmen sends her Hello Kitty themed accessories
- Sheena shows up in the next capers in them
- Sheena sends Carmen anything red
- she sent her a fire extinguisher, a pencil topper, and a way too small kid bracelet
- Carmen put the pencil topper on her laser
- She put the bracelet around a string and made it a necklace
[Sheena only wearing one claw]
“I TOLD YOU THAT WAS MY LAST PAIR”
“You dropped in in Java, finders keepers”
Basically little sister big sister type of thing
orflirty enemies
“Have you seen El Topo’s new hair?”
“I mean it definitely looks like he does ground work”
•
[Fighting]
“Why does Gray’s hair look like that?”
“Maelstrom gave him hair gel, probably training him to have the same hairline”
Confrontation where Sheena admits to Carmen how great of a thief she truly is and how she’s jealous of it, how wanted to be just as good basically the himalayan rescue caper but jealousy
Graham Crackle Head canons (after getting his memory back)
- frequently spaces out, stares
- wonders which operatives have been memory wiped
- less trusting and more snappy at VILE faculty, rarely makes conversation with them on missions, doesn’t take the convos seriously
- maelstrom is one of the faculty that frequently talks to him, he tries to be as guarded as he can around him (see himalayan rescue caper on why)
- Jean opens up to him how scared they were for him and for themselves
- tried to act the same when carm got wiped, fails and constantly masks
- only there for the jobs, not for the people who give them
Red is a smart color for you.

Maelstrom:I still remember Black Sheep’s sinister pranks like a scorching taste on my tongue.
Brunt: Maelstrom, she gave you a jalapeño cheeto.
you know how le chevre and paperstar have phones?
VILE operatives started complaining that black sheep had a phone for a year and still went undetected so bellum made a literal phone company for the sole purpose of everyone not getting pissed. the only catch is that they assign operatives to market the phones and somewhere in the world is a commercial of paperstar creepily voicing over the sleekest phone ever. a poster of crackle holding up the phone as if it was his pride and joy
neal the eel is lactose intolerant, eats everything with dairy, and lets it rip in VILE academy
Paper star(looking up and down at the operatives’ stealth suits): wooooww, and they say I’M psychotic, at least I’m not BLAND.
[2 am]
Neal The Eel: Why are any of us here, really?
Museum Security: I’m asking about you, specifically
Maelstrom:I want you to take this man down but make it seem like an accident
Mime Bomb:✅
[Later]
Zari: looks like the killer beat him
to death with a crowbar and then
placed a banana peel by his feet
Gray: Don’t weep for the stupid. You’ll be crying all day.
Le Chevre: Thats why we didn’t even bother after you were gone.
Gray:
Le Chevre: Good to have you back.
Gray making a journal filled with not only his memories and opinions, but for everyone in his team if ever the time comes they’ve been wiped clean.
The time Carmen gets wiped, the journal is in scribbles and furious writing. Him being unsure of his writing and if what he puts down is what he wants Carmen to be, or is what he remembers of her.
Carmen: Alright team, how are we looking?
Player: I haven’t slept for 72 hours red, my eyes might look like a void if you stare at em long enough, but i’d say i look dapper as ever.
Ivy: The red really brings out the sexiness, and the coat still adds that mystery. Sexy AND mysterious, looking great carm.
Zack: I’d say that the maroon in my shirt really brings out my eyes. Like, a piercing blue gaze amidst the sea of red.
Shadowsan: The guards are all knocked out. We may enter now.
