I like this method, doing a lot of backgrounds before laying into the animation itself instead of halting the keyframing to stop and do up another background. This is working. Also I don't know if I'll have that ceiling window break spectacularly or to leave it as a huge tease that ALMOST breaks just to build tension to relea...

You guys make it happen. Thank you so much for your patience.

GUYS! Thank you so much for not hunting me down and sticking my head on a spike for missing a deadline by so many days. We were tweaking and nudging things to such a degree that I got a little carried away in the alterations.
AT ANY RATE. I am gonna let this bugger compile up then fire it off to Newgrounds first,...
On the animation front I am currently working on Madness 9.5 PART 1, and I hope to HECK I can get this done in time. It's only a part one, and while it isn't as short as the dedmos series parts, it is a setup to the meatier half of 9.5 while still being thick with satisfying violence. Wish me the luck, I could use a few stran...

Just a reminder to myself, the goals are achievable. I just hit the 3 minute mark. I should have something of 'okay' size and quality by Madness day (September 22). It will be the first part of the Madness Combat 9.5, and we're looking at just a bunch of strange nonsense but at the core it is 'moar madness'. Thank...

I'm really trying to trim the amount of frame by frame flamey/electric artwork I gotta do if I intend to get a part1 done by Madness Day, but I just can't help myself. Sometimes things just gotta look cool.
That said the silver lining to this quarantine is that I'm spending a lot of weekend hours on this, the rea...

I'll have some news and updates on 9.5 in a couple days for you patrons. Stay tuned..

Look what ya'll made me do.
So as I get into the 'second act' of this cartoon I wonder and think. Really just some out loud musings.
The dedmos series was 5 shorts that mushed together into one long cartoon that was uploaded separately. Did you guys enjoy being told a story in this format or did getting 1 minute at a time (or sometimes 4 mi...
Hey guys. It's me, that guy that you're supporting (Thanks for the food, btw. For real. These gainz are brought to you by this generosity)! Why haven't I released that new short yet? Well, I'm just waiting on a lil music! I was a fool and didn't start the ball rolling on getting the music soon enough! But all is not lost! I'v...

But then I was like, "what if we spend 4 hours making a background and some scientist shrugging his shoulders"? The cartoon will be better off for it, and I am glad ya'll're patient with me as I stumble through the art process on stream!

Hey guys! You know that toon I'm working on with the guys that do the hand stretching? Stream tomorrow, maybe noon EST? Sound good to you? Alright? Alright!
EDIT; SORRY I FORGOT I GOTTA THING. It has to be saturday evening EST.

Hey guys! So I know a lot of you follow my twitch, so you've been seeing me stream a little more, working on this little xprmnt.fla thing here. The motivation for this is that the .5 is taking me a lot longer than I would have liked so why not bang out a super short lad and engage with youse guys while I do it, right? I hope ...
2020-01-12 05:00:41 +0000 UTC View PostI had thought I was done with this scene but after leaving it behind I realized it could have been a bit 'more' if I added something to the transition. I don't know how much it 'adds' to the cartoon as a whole but it looks pretty cool, and you get a cool close up, right? This cartoon is carting along pretty well, despite the ...
2019-11-17 20:48:38 +0000 UTC View PostHA HA HA!!! I've loosened my tie a bit and can go even faster! regular speed :c
I wanna watch toons and do some concept art with youse guys, so heads up; stream like, tomorrow and either friday or wednesday. Either way I miss you knuckleheads.
Making backgrounds ahead of time is cool as hell. Transitioning from one scene to the next without pulling the breaks to make a new BG is a joy I have just now discovered and I think I might be hooked on doing things this way, now.
Project Nexus continues to dominate my schedule, the hours I put in after the office tim...
Hey guys, this last month has been a pretty turbulent one, eh? As far as flash goes I've gotten some more road under the ol' tires, and having Madness Day 2019 come through invigorated me, as these things tend to do! I've stopped mindlessly hacking out backgrounds for the .5 and actually BEGUN ANIMATING the ...

Hey there folks! Just dropping a post to let you guys know what I am up do. You might remember that I have started on mc12, we've had a stream or two where I assembled backgrounds, and off stream I have been building animatics and trying to figure out just what to do next. mc12.fla is certainly staged for some key...

Still plugging away at this one when the evenings permit, but this has been a hell of a month, with things finally starting to chill the hell out. Checking in with you lads to ask about whether or not you're following the streams, what you think of the progress, or any other distressing concerns.
I've been thinking a l...
The progress on Madness Combat 12 has been less than ideal. The process has been making backgrounds, character set pieces, and a few layouts with pages of notes. Of course; knowing my process those notes are going to be trashed by the end, devoured by the process. The backgrounds, however, are primo and are helping me s...

After the dedmos adventure reached its conclusion I was left kinda spinning my tires, as it were. A good chunk of time was spent not even thinking about animation and just focusing on Project Nexus and drawing garbage, and all that cleared out some nonsense in my head about how I should approach MC12. After some loose s...

Thanks for watching, friends.
_ redesign 'that' goon
_ finish off the final bit of characters moving around
_ one more background for conclusion

Sooner, rather than later. An update to thank you for your patience. By the end of this cartoon we'll have some clear narrative direction for the next cartoon. Maybe we'll chat a littl...
I ask you guys because hell, you're flipping the bill and keeping me fed in the evenings while I work on this, so I figure I'd run the question by you, right?
So, The most important thing about this cartoon is the end, and that could take a few sessions by itself, so I'm wondering how much fun filler violence co...

Only for a couple hours, just wanna do a little bitty of the violence.
Stream later today, gotta take care of some shit but I wanted to let you know that there is some animation going on today, a little delayed, not cancelled!
Going to be doing it on twitch again because archiving is great.

I've gotten a good start on the final deadmos cartoon, I am considering making it substantially longer than the four cartoons that came before it, but we'll see how that goes as I start nailing down scenes. I guess it depends on if the action is engaging because the plot sure isn't! Last weekend I fired up a surprise st...

I am massively thankful that the reception for MC11 has been so positive. You guys are entirely too kind to me. Being such a large undertaking I'm skittish about taking on something as large as that again, so I'm changing gears (or rather, have been changing gears) into a bombardment of canonical sorts. The dedmos...
