Space Stallions
may look like a promo for a Thundercats/Voltron/BraveStarr-era cartoon, but it's actually one of the Bachelor Films from students at the Animation Workshop at Denmark's VIA University. And that's not all!
There is LOAD, set in a weird world where the protagonist wears armor made of post-it notes?, Slug Invasion, the eternal battle between gardener and pest, from the pest's viewpoint, of course, Ride of Passage, in which a young hunter on his first expedition gets help from a surprising source, Vaesen, a classically styled (and NSFW) tale of a son's quest to do right by his father and Wing, which answers the question "what is a one-winged bird boy to do?" The Animation Workshop's YouTube Channel has lots more cool stuff, from previous years' Bachelor Films to spots made for a Danish animal welfare organization to "The Trailer Project" with short previews of movies with the same titles as film classics - and nothing else in common. Enjoy.

Haven't had time to watch all these yet, but Space Stallions is f'ing EPIC. That has got to get made! Brilliant find, foop, thanks.

That's no mule -- that's a space stallion!
