What you see above is "Outcast Hero"'s animatic in its entirety. After almost a year of standing on my cupboard, at risk of stray gusts of wind or stray flailing arms, I have finally put all these individually-drawn panels into a proper box.
Before I really got to grips with Flash, I was working in a more physical format. Even after I felt more confident with the program, I didn't have the heart to suddenly switch to making the animatic in Flash, due to a drastic shift in how it would look. Don't ask me why I was so concerned - after all, the majority of people will never see it. I guess because I saw it as a work of art all its own. And, in a sense, it is.
For two and a half hours of footage, the contents of that box doesn't look much. But consider the fact that quite a few frames were just edited variations of a hand-drawn one, and the amount of paper panels starts to look more realistic.
