Popeye meets the Man Who Hates Laughter

oh my god this is hilariously terrible. Folks, this is what you call "animation without life"

I'm pretty sure they traced most of these characters and badly

I get to set things on fire for my job

I need to figure out how to spray fire at things. Anyone got any good online resources?

I'll make another ACTUAL post next week about how things are going (I've been pretty darn busy) next week when I finally have some time off!

I got back at midnight and my brain wanted to try a quick animation test :I

random pictures + amateur food porn

life's been busy, yadda yadda, have some random pictures.


Candy Calzone: First attempt









You could really only eat little bits of it at a time because it was so freakin' rich.



fusion short ribs with jalapenos



baked chicken with ramen (and bacon)






not food porn. They did have fried dough at the Franklin County Fair in Greenfield though!










I love the concerned looking crowd behind the bike







I'll admit that last one was pretty creepy

Dr. Sketchy's Northampton

Aww yiss.


Awesome time last night at Dr. Sketchy's anti-art school in Northampton!

I should mention that I got FIRST PLACE (YEAHHHHHH) in the "best sketch of the night" with this one (selected by the lovely models, of course):




I definitely have room for improvement, but this isn't bad for a 10 minute drawing in the dark :3

Other drawings:




















And yeah, I won this awesome poster (drawn by Carly Monardo, Kate Beaton, and Meredith Gran)



Awesome night. I even got to hang out with the models afterwards! Definitely going back to the next one :D





And some random shots of Rhode Island last saturday before the hurricane. The waves were maybe 10 feet fall before the storm hit




PART OF YOUR WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRLLLLLLLDDDDDDDDDDD

Lack of updates, ARCELIA NOW LIVE!

Whew!

Again, sorry for the lack of updates. I've been busy trying to do TOFA reviews, wrap up production on games, make new games, attempt to coordinate a vfx team, life, etc.


guh. being an adult is HARD.

Anyways, BIG NEWS!

The game I worked on is now LIVE!



heck yeah! It's THE SECRET OF ARCELIA ISLAND!
(it's a hidden object game. Think Mist)

I dunno, I spent the past 8 months animating effects for this thing. I think it looks pretty snazzy, and the artists I worked with are godly amazing at painting (and the programmers and designers do magical stuff that's amazing)

So yeah, try the demo! see my animations! I'm proud of it! :D

A TRUE AMERICAN

I spent July 4th eating sushi and drawing the french chef.




yeah yeah it's pretty bad, I know. I'm teaching myself to draw again. Also yeah, it's Julia CHILD :|
