We recently created a new IMPS The Relentless Facebook page for people to "like." This will be our official Facebook page where we can post news link updates, productions notes, images, answer questions directly related to the project and other items. This should make it much easier for our fans and followers to receive Facebook notices in a streamlined manner.
Please know that we still promote the IMPS group page and encourage people to join it as well! If you're only interested in just IMPS updates, etc, please visit and "Like" our page!
Our main news postings will still be here at impstherelentless.com but we'll make notices on Facebook.
Thanks to everyone in the group for keeping it alive and welcome to any new followers!

"You are given the options of Fast, Good and Cheap, and told to pick any two."
At the very beginning of this project we never truly knew it would be such an extensive, long term commitment. We do, however, intrinsically believe we can accomplish such a massive project but not as fast as everyone would like. We chose the option of Good and Cheap and we're doing the best possible with the resources and time we can scavenge or borrow. Hence, this project does take its sweet time.
We do want to thank everyone who is patiently waiting and are still at our sides anticipating the next chapter. We’re all still aboard the Relentless cruising along.
As of right now all the final FX shots are in the editors hands and are placing them into the final cut for Chapter 3. They can now put together the last 20% or so of the shots. The rest of the team has moved on to chapters four and five.
As for a new update pic, we’ll let you take a guess at what these are. The top two images are related and the bottom two are related in terms of model parts. Both models do have something to do with one another. (click the pic to enlarge)

Hey everyone! Production on IMPS is still moving along and we're proud to have just recently brought on board some help. We have added two modelers and two graphic designers to contribute thier talent to IMPS. We just recently had an armor fest and have added a few pictures below to show the workings. Was a lot of fun and still have some (actually a lot of) work to do. We are still unable to set a release date for chapter 3.

We know it's been a long dry spell between news items here on the site, but a quick note to let you all know that we're still working on the I.M.P.S. project. We do, however, post quick updates on our Facebook page from time to time so do check in there, or join the group if you haven't already. In the meantime, here are a few images for the upcoming chapter 3 and we have one that is from chapter 4. Of course, much more will be released as soon as we near release for chapter 3.

Hey All,
Just posted some new props for you to check out. Seven new armor images and one weapon. Here are a three in-progress images. Chapter 3 is still in the works but unfortunately we won't
be able to get it out by Thanksgiving of this year. Right now it's looking like it won't be until early 2011 that we'll be closer for a release time.

Hey Everyone!!
First, a big thanks too ALL our fans out there that gave a shout for us in the final 48 hours for the "Time Top 10 Star Wars Fan Films." We managed to place 3rd! If you haven't already, go check out the great follow up video showcasing all the fan films that made the top 10.
During this month we had to grab some pick up shots for Chapter 3. Below is a few snapshops of the crew working the green screen. We brought in a couple new troopers to help us out and welcomed them aboard the Blacksheep Team.

Hello IMPS Nation,
Some interesting news we’ve discovered. Time On-Line is having a “What’s your favorite Star Wars fan film?” listing and they’re putting the judging up to you - the Star Wars loving public. We were pleased to see that clips from our project found their way into Time’s examples of popular Star Wars fan film history and we’re all pretty proud about it. However it looks like since it’s a vote of numbers, the lot of us here at Blacksheep Productions aren’t going to get many votes on our own. So if you find yourself going to TIME YouTube and viewing their expose on it, please give a shout out for IMPS, The Relentless Chapters 1 or 2 if they are your favorite. We’d appreciate it.
Both Chapters can be viewed on YouTube at IMPS The Relentless YouTube Channel
Post for Chapter 3 is going forward and picking up steam as Pete is delivering amazing shots. Edits are for various scenes are getting the finishing touches. We can’t wait to see it done too.
Happy August,
`Nathan and the Blacksheep Squad

Hey All,
Marshall and myself (Eric) have completed the necessities for Chapter 3 and handed them over to Pete for rendereing. Pete has already handed over half of the shots to the editing crew and is working on rendering the new items. While they're working on that, Marshall and I have now moved on to chapters 4 and 5.
Blacksheep Productions has spent the last six months re-tooling all the post FX in chapter 3 from the ground up. Everything learned from the first two chapters is now being poured into the next chapter, this time with 2010 technology. Chapter 3 is going to have a new look from the previous. Chapter 4 and beyond, even more so.
Below are a few images of work in progress. There are no spoilers as these are just model re-works, textures, lighting and atmospherics. Enjoy, more to come!
Eric (HK-882)
