This short, pointless cartoon is my first flash project using characters from my "Mortasheen" world, a realm of grotesque creatures I illustrate and develop for fun. It was originally intended for various game projects, but I never learned how to make my own. You can follow a link at the end to see all of its current monsters; over 320 I've drawn in pencil over the past few years. I'm sure you have noticed by now that drawing monsters is practically all I ever do, and nearly all of my Flash work is just another vehicle for that. I've been doing it since I was a toddler. I probably come up with a dozen creatures a day, and just wish I had the energy to draw them all.
I know this is just some dumb cartoon gags and not much of a plot or ending, but I had to make SOMETHING involving these guys. I also know the tiny eyeball guy bears striking similarity to a character from Gegege no Kitarou (one of the only anime series I respect) which I suppose is about 50% homage and 50% the simple fact that there's no easier way to draw a tiny eyeball guy.
If anybody likes this, I implore you to comment on my other Flash submissions as well. A few of them went largely unnoticed compared to some of my other submissions, and that includes a few I put my greatest time and effort into.
If you DIDN'T like this...you should check out my other stuff anyway, because it varies wildly in tone, pacing and genre. It's still all just a bunch of damn monsters, but some of it is funny, some of it is creepy, some of it I kinda hate myself, and some of it I'm genuinely proud of.

Nice job
Great job.
Disturbing yet your animation skills are superb.
I dont mind creepy or gross creatures so long as youre not useing your talents to sway a public or exploiting icons to gain popularity. Sorry but there is an artist who has your talents and makes everything subliminal to the viewers of this website... he attracts all the racist natzis and jesus hating douchebags that view this site.
^_^
I personally loved the ending! it was great and cleverly cute.
10/10 5/5
I like your idea of animating fun.
I've never fit in with the "horror crowd"...not that all of them are asses or anything, but a lot of them are just into the genre as a form of defiant punk mentality, rather than for the creativity and art that can go into it. No idea what person you're referring to bthough :)
