current events! finally shelving 'nothing for nothing' for now, picking up 'foxhood' again!

after 2 years of toiling away trying to make it work on and off, i'm deciding to finally just shelf 'nothing for nothing' again for a good while, it'll probably be at least 2 years until i pick it up again because every time i try to do something with it, i spend years on it making hardly any pro...

probably stepping away from 'nothing for nothing' temporarily!

unfortunately i hadn't been able to get much done this week, i'm having a lot of trouble getting back into animating specifically for 'nothing for nothing' which concerns me given how much work i have cut out for myself animating episode 1.. i think pressure's getting to me in that regard, so i m...

good news!!! medicated at last!!

great news after this past week! my resting heart rate is totally normal again and i'm back on adderall! it already feels pretty crazy in how much better i operate compared to how i am off of it, though it'll still be a bit before i'm at where i was before due to that long period of A Whole Lotta...

progress has been made! things are looking to be back in order soon!

the 2-3 months ive had to go without adderall are likely soon to be coming to a close and i'll be able to get back to business soon enough, as the doctor's appointment i need is happening this week! so here's the current plan!

the script for nfn episode 3 is underway, though i'm having trou...

1080p of the silly mini christmas "special" + current status of 'nothing for nothing' + more plans going forward!

things have been going pretty well! given that i'm soon likely to be back on adderall so i'll be able to really get back into the swing of things, i've been hard focused on 'nothing for nothing' after getting this little christmas animation out within the week! i believe the script for episode 2 ...

more good news! plus a silly little WIP!

progress has been keeping steady! plus, my heart rate has returned to normal at least for the time being, so i may very well be good to go back on adderall following my doctor's appointment in early january! i'm not gonna keep my hopes up but it's good regardless! when all that medical stuff is s...

good news! progress has been kept up!

at this point, the script for 'nothing for nothing' episode 1 is pretty much 100% complete and just needs an extra gloss-over which i'm doing while i make an extremely rough animatic for it! the script for episode 2 is very near completion as well! the reason i'm able to get these done so fast is...

animation update! mixed news, but i'm getting somewhere!

so the bad news first, it is going to take at minimum 1 more month, likely 2 or more depending on the circumstances until i'm able to be on adderall again. the good news though! is that i found a good way to still be productive during this time, and it's for something meaningful: nothing for noth...

more general update! still pretty confused..

progress had been made on porting "boy arena" to the new networking scheme, a pretty decent amount thankfully, but i'm still feeling so uncertain when it comes to what i actually want to do and commit to right now.. i think the unfortunate answer is i don't think there is a solution, i'm likely j...

more general update! thinking of going game-y for the moment

after a good bit of trying this week, i think it's safe to say that i can't really animate under current circumstances, but that's ok! namely, i have ol reliable: game development, and something recently peaked my interest again, an old project called "boy arena"!

general update! things are getting a little rough

i've been sketching but ultimately not much was done this week again unmedicated.. bad news too, i won't be able to be medicated with adderall again until mid-december at the earliest, so there's an entire month ahead of me like that.

to be blunt, the reason i had to go off of the medicatio...

sunday WIP stuff!! general update + forgotten showcase!

heya! predictably, i wasn't able to get too much done this week without adderall, some progress had been made towards "episode 1" but it's far too early for me to decide what i really want to focus on.. i may be without the adderall for a while because of health complications that the medication ...

sunday general update! potentially returning to an old concept!

progress had been made this week on "fella kart" though i feel a bit bad about working on it at the moment because i feel it's not really what i want to do or showcase, especially for patreon, i want to do something more substantial! i'm not sure how well the "crazy weirdo" animation is working o...

(late) sunday WIP stuff!! 2024 10-21

i realize that for a while i've been caught up in the throes of hyperfixation, which unfortunately means it's very hard to stay entirely focused on animation when my body and mind basically refuse to do anything But something related to said hyperfixation.. that said, i've been hyperfixated on go...

happy to say! sunday WIP GIFs!

i thought i was pretty much sapped out of all of my animation energy, but out of nowhere i guess i really didn't want to give up, because the day after making last sunday's post i ended up doing the most animation i've done in weeks LOL.. it's still relatively slow-going and i can't do it for ver...

i think after almost 2 years of struggling and failing to work on or complete any major animated project, it's time for me to call it quits on animation as my main line of work, at least for now.. the more time goes on, the more i've struggled with it and the harder its become to make anything, e...

been a slow week, so why not some concept art for older animations?

this week i hadn't been able to get much of anything done between a relapse and hyperfixation taking hold, so i figured hey, it might be cool to show off some old concept art / thumbnailing for old animations that i don't think i've ever shown before! these sketches in specific are mostly for "st...

sunday WIP stuff! gonna experiment a little more to see what feels the most right..

this week was a pretty slow one with me mostly doing paper thumbnailing for the animatic, the amount of stuff i'd need to do to make and complete episode 1 of nfn has dawned on me a bit and it's a little overwhelming when i'm still just getting back into animation.. i still want to make it! but t...

experimenting with something! a potential return to "nothing for nothing"!

something i'm quickly realizing as i try to make progress on that music video i was working on is that i'm just not sure if i want to make music videos like that anymore, at least for the time being.. it just doesn't feel like "my thing" anymore, and i have rough associations when it comes to the...

sunday WIP stuff! animation's going slow, so here's a little something in the meantime!

unfortunately, not much in the way of animation has been done this week, i've certainly been trying and have made a little progress on cleaning up key-frames, but nothing really worth showing.. i'm having a bit of difficulty getting back into animating, because when i do it, i get stuck thinking ...

baby steps into the actual animation phase of this one as i'm getting back into the habit of animating regularly, but here's the animation so far! i've decided on an outline style similar to "Modify" where there'll be thick outlines surrounding all of the drawings, which is a little time consumin...

plans going forward as things settle down!

what you see above is a bunch of model sheet stuff for "nothing for nothing" i prepared around this time last year! they're a bit outdated since it was before a slight style overhaul, mostly maddie's because she in specific became a lot more angular, but i figured it'd be interesting to share reg...

sunday WIP stuff: let's talk animation!

here's something i whipped up this week: a full animatic for a new animation! ideally i'd like to commit to this one and see it through, but we'll see how that turns out... it's meant to be a pretty low-pressure animation that's more of a "Hey! I'm Still Alive And Working!" given that its only ab...
