Smiling? She's smiling? Woah, never would have guessed that.

Looks more pissy to me XD

Capt.-Ben: All will be revealed in October. Hahaha, well, January actually. We'll launch! I promise!

Big-J: No, smiling like I was when I wrote that because I get to animate. The drawing of the girl is totally exasperated. They say you draw what you know, right? Haha

Anyhoo, animation break took a little time to doodle

Ahhh, tis the secret art of the jumping-flamingo-burning-weevil punch!

I like your art style. It does kind of remind me of Ren and Stimpy. I enjoy looking at your artwork. Can't wait for your animation.

big j: it's no secret anymore! hahahahaha oh man

lyxek: thanks man. i get the comparison to ren and stimpy a lot (thanks! great compliment in my eyes). i think ren and stimpy is one of the only shows out to carry the torch of solid, golden age cartoon styles. i like ren and stimpy, but i like tex avery and looney tunes adn stuff even more! hopefully someday people will tell me my stuff looks like looney tunes!

anyway, think you guys can keep quiet about something? i wanna share a little animation preview and share a bit about my animation process.

underneith you will see really rough drawings in a low opacity. that's my animatic. i rough out my WHOLE film super rough. i do a soundtrack and then cut up all the scenes into their own .fla's for rough animation.

i dropped my animatic in, put a box of high opacity white over it, and i've been starting to animate. this is my rough animation where i go in and just try to get the basic motions down. i don't try ot get details or anything else. i'll do that when i tie down the key drawings and get ready to clean stuff up.

Didn't realize public nudity was considered a business. I may have to become an entrepreneur.

I adore this style, unique, but with the noticeable qualities of the good cartoons out there. It's a perfect balance!

big-j: no more mr. nice guy

cap'n: if it was a business and i still had great market exposure and decent profit sharing margins, my stock prices and net value would be on a bull market, with the deviating syl-... what i'm trying to say is that i've got a small cock *sigh*

serenity-starlight: wow! thanks for the compliment!

"the carrot..."

"muah"

"i say"

"BEST FOOD EV4R!!1"

"so eat your carrots. don't get computer screen eyes."

Reminds me of when bugs bunny gets all hulk in Space Jam.

Goddamn, man, you are amazing. I love Newgrounds, I always pop in when there's an awesome thread going on. I'm totally psyched for your comic thing getting released!
