What's up people! Just thought I'd pop in with my bi-quarterly reminder that I'm still alive.


Also still very slowly working on Kerslash. One of the reasons it's taking so long is because I've been developing a lot of supplemental shorts and comics to fill in a lot of the world building that was left out of the first 2 episodes. I've been calling these shorts "OVA's", but they're only going to be between 30 seconds and a minute long. So the format of Kerslash will go like this:


-Episode 1

-Episode 2

*mid season break*

-RECAP Short

-Kerslash Zero shorts

-World building backstory

-Episode 3

-Episode 4


So the overall gameplan is to do all that stuff and then recut Kerslash into a short film of some kind, with corrected/updated animation in the earlier episodes. And I'm not just doing it by myself this time around, so preproduction is kind of going at a snails pace. Coordinating money/payment, scheduling and just finding talent that can replicate my artstyle is what's been taking the most time. The art part is easy though, and I have a lot of rough animation I can't really show yet, It's just a matter of waiting for all the puzzle pieces to fall into place.


Anyway, here's some new Kerslash art and a process video of me struggling with this angle:

Also, if you guys are up for helping me out with Kerslash hit me up!

I realized I go through these long waves of not doing fanart, not because I don't like doing it, but I get so caught up in my own work I don't even think about it. I really want to get in the habit of doing fanart regularly, so here's a quick Lola Bunny to start things off.

I've been streaming at odd hours of the night, working on an short animated thing about Vampire Jubilee. Did you know Jubilee was a vampire?


I stream usually between 1 and 4 am. I'll try and switch to regular hours when my sleep schedule goes back to normal...

I got tired of how sad and mellow all the "lofi beats" mix's are so I made one of my own.

I call it HiFi Beats to get Hype to, hopefully it'll serve you as well as it serves me:

This is the first in a series of videos I'm doing about animating on paper in the present day. For people unable to get access to a tablet, but who still have a working computer with a scanner.

Here's a guide I made for people just getting started in Adobe Animate/Flash.



I also made a video showing off a quick little tip for coloring faster in Photoshop:



Hopefully someone will find these useful. I plan on doing a lot more in the future so let me know if there's anything you think I should go over.

Just doing my scheduled check in to prove that I'm still alive. And I'm still making youtube thingies:





Might be looking for voice actors in the near future for some upcoming things.

It's fun to go back and look at your old stuff with fresh eyes every once in a while, and experience it the way everybody else did.


I talk about animating on paper, having to make scenes from the comics, and being too worried about action, among other things.
