Full Melon Jacket sound track

I wanted to create a track that felt like Vietnam war era rock, which means noodly guitar solos. The first part is of course derivative of Jimi Hendrix's All Along the Watchtower. I created the guitar lead parts by first programming them and then playing them one bar at a time. I'm out of prac...

Full Melon Jacket (Finished!)

Thank you for supporting another beautiful cartoon! It was great to animate Ragemelon again.

I will upload a public version for non patrons in a few days.

Ragemelon project update

It's been over 10 years since I've animated a Ragemelon cartoon and I am revelling in how much easier it is to animate characters with floating limbs and heads.

My technique for character animation in the last few years is to have a head symbol with all the head assets inside so that can mo...

Ragemelon: Melons in the Mekong

I'm back at work after my month off as of the 23rd and I've started a new project which will either be called Ragemelon: Melons in the Mekong or Ragemelon: Full Melon Jacket. Or perhaps another name if a better one can be invented. It's about Ragemelon trying to play a game of...

First look at crab parlour, patreon pause for 1 month

Above is the new look crab parlour and the first big shot of the interior. The first crab parlour that got destroyed was more of a stone structure but I felt a ramshackle wooden look fitted better.

Pleasure Island: CRAB TAB Part 1

Thank you for supporting this project so far, I am very happy with Part 1.

If you want to wait for the finished project and not watch this fair enough by the way.

CRAB TAB Update

The post contains mild spoilers. I've pretty much finished animating the first scene, though I've skipped lip syncing and don't even have dialogue for parts yet. Progress will feel faster in the second scene because there's more dialogue, the first and 3rd scenes have a fair bit of action.

Pleasure Island: Crab Tab update

If you missed my last post, I paused patreon last month on the 23rd for a month to do a short storyboarding job. It will resume tomorrow, the job went fine and I ended up spending a lot of the month on the cartoon anyway. The title gif above heavily referenced the spinning back kick animation I...

Pleasure Island Crab Tab first look, Patreon pause

The video above is storyboard -> animation for the first 6 shots, without dialogue or sound effects. If you don't want to spoil anything, maybe don't watch it, though it only shows the first 20 seconds of the cartoon. I've done more shots but these are the ones finished enough to show.

PLEASURE ISLAND CRAB TAB Storyboard completed

This one will be a doozy. I decided to throw caution to the wind and add some action shots that aren't strictly necessary to tell the story but are things I want to try or that will make the cartoon better. I haven't added any voices yet so I don't know precisely how long it will be but probabl...

SWEAT

I enjoyed returning to the Manwhore Industries building, if only for a short time.

The bike animation is rotoscoped, and the sound is my bike as well.

I'm shelving Groanstaff to make a 30 second Fernando and Gooseman cartoon. It won' take very long.

My new idea I'm working on is doing various shorts of them and combining 3 into a compilation. This will mean a new cartoon regularly for as long as I do it. Two other ideas I...

Let's Kill a Catboy!

Here's an idea for a series. If it does ok I can take suggestions from audience for how they'd like to see a catboy die. The people who love catboys get to watch catboys. The people who hate catboys get to watch catboys die. Everyone wins!

Gazza of Penrith sound track

If I was really trying to ape The Wiggles I wouldn't have included a guitar solo because they don't have many of those, I thought it suited the song though, although in retrospect I should have turned the distortion down a bit. When I say "guitar solo", I played it piece by piece and stitched it...

Gazza of Penrith

I'm a big witcher fan, read the books, played Witcher 3 (not 1 & 2 though) and even watched the netflix show, so thirsty was I for witcher. I thought it'd be cool to make a witcher parody way back when I was playing the game in 2017 but didn't have a strong idea for it. The idea of making an ...

Gazza update (almost done)

The above track is a short wiggles parody song I'm working on for the credits. I want to add a guitar solo and another verse at the end. I haven't been playing guitar much recently though...I wonder if I can pull it off. If there's no guitar solo in the track when it's finished then you'll kno...

Gazza Update, Treshtog toy imminent

Very happy with my thumbnail painting above, the shadowy figure is kinda the elf and also the dog beast, which doesn't make sense but the Elf's silhouette wasn't ominous enough.  I wanted the dog beast to have eyes like that in the cartoon but apparently its too similar to the berserk dog. &...

Sentient Hat (unreleased 2008 cartoon)

A deadbeat meets a genius hat.

The year was 2008.  I had just finished making a series called Angry Dog for a company called Aniboom.  They had an interest in acquiring series ideas and pitching them as TV shows.  I pitched this idea to them near the end of their spe...

Gazza of Penrith update

The above video is animatic -> finished animation for three of the more interesting shots so far.  Contains minor spoilers.

Does patreon video not work for anyone?  I will add a youtube mirror if so.

My throat finally recovered enough for me to sing this without retching. 

This will replace the music that currently plays after the cartoon ends.

Meth Orcs Soundtrack

Quite a few tracks for this one, my favourite is Draven's Lament, I love an excuse to break out the pan flute.  This cartoon was challenging for me to score, probably cause it's a bit stop start in nature.

Meth Orcs - The Stench of Failure

Thank you for supporting this project and being patient with how long it took!  I fully expected it to take me 2 or 3 weeks less than it did.  I'm not even sure how it blew out so bad.  The next Meth Orcs I'd like to make is a bit shorter.

I'm not going to make it public yet,...

The post title is a joke.  The video doesn't exist.  Unless....?

Because I'm near the end there is not an awful lot I can share without spoiling plot points.  I've been posting gifs on discord with spoiler tags but patreon doesn't have that function.
