This plug-in pack took me quite a while to make.
Here are the following stick figures present: The Second Coming, Red, Green, Blue, Yellow, Purple, Orange, The Chosen One, The Dark Lord, Victim and Corn Dog Guy (yep, he's here too. And even though he's not relevant to any major current storylines yet, he's in there.)
Here's the thing... It's was the planning... Well, more like trying to arrange how the layers will come together in Photopea.
The first two poses/frames (the arms down) we're manageable enough with a single clipping mask, but the next two poses with the arms up? Now you have to account for the inner arm, the body and the outer arm and the details for each, and then applying their clipping mask per layer.
So basically, it was a mess... And it took a bit more time when doing the Hollowheads, which made me modify the head and adjust the lighting and the shadows. And then you get to King Orange, who is a bit more taller than the other sticks...
And being so tired that I can't even redraw another taller stick figure one from scratch, (especially with how I did the next two frames,) I got lazy and elongated it... And he also gets an extra set of frames with his crown.)
Here's the .psd file. Open it in photopea.com and see how I even made them.
Here's the JSON of the entire thing in all of it's glory... And for YOU, future plug-in makers, who are willing to put custom categories and templates to avoid code redundancy! (It's my first time utilizing them, which makes the coding process much better!)

1. Reworking King Orange - If the time is right, I'll redraw a tall stick figure from scratch and give the kingly father a proper drawing of him.
2. Additional Features - I would like to give Green his yellow-orange rimmed shades from his Influencer Arc, Purple's Elytra and Red's Yellow bandana? (I'd also like to add their certain faces from the "Faces" and "More Faces" shorts that Alan Becker posted.
3. Speaking of which, Alan Becker - Either the cursor or his own stick avatar. (Though that means I have to add in DJ, which is a bit too much work.)
4. Seemingly improbable, Other Characters -
Maybe not. Again, too much work and they're different models.
So, that has been a long 2 days of working on a plug-in... And I think I'm starting to grow tired of it, especially with how I'm now screwing up my sleep habits as I drag myself to 12AM to 2AM as if
Oh, I should do a fridge of some sorts as a plug-in when I come back, and the Pluginator, the statue of Himmel, the Potato power plant, the sword in stone— But for now, I'll be prioritizing myself first. I have my fun streak of making plug-ins... But I definitely don't want to crash myself to death with it as I waste my sleep if I continued this, that'll suck.
