The artist responsible for the animation, AdrianTheGamePro, shared their mind-blowing work on the Red Dead Redemption subreddit. The scene was created using Blender, a free animation and 3D graphics software, in just a few days. The moment from the game they chose to animate is a scene from Red Dead Redemption 2 where Arthur questions Dutch's knowledge of Spanish.

AdrianTheGamePro's animation does a fantastic job at elevating the subtle comedy of the moment, filling the exchange between Arthur and Dutch with a long, awkward pause and hilarious camera angles. The post already has over 10,000 upvotes and a long list of comments praising what a great job was done by the animator. Many comments expressed wishes for an actual LEGO version of Red Dead Redemption to happen in the future, since AdrianTheGamePro's work proves that the franchise would be a perfect fit for LEGO's specific brand of humor. The animation is so spot-on that it's amazing that it was achieved in only a few days, showcasing this fan's incredible talent.

Developer Traveller's Tales' success with LEGO games has created a unique niche for itself, and it's been a great way to see various beloved franchises in a new light. LEGO-inspired adaptations have brought forth some of the most unexpected successes in gaming, and there are plenty of great titles that would fit the bill for a LEGO rework. However, thanks to the amazing work done by AdrianTheGamePro, it's clear that Red Dead Redemption needs to have its LEGO moment.
