Greetings Newgrounds Peoples and Fans.

Well another year has came a went and we're now heading into 2023. So... did you guys accomplish what you wanted to accomplish this year? Or there's some left overs? Then chuck it into next years plate, just keep in mind not to make a full plate if you think you can't eat it all. Meaning: (Do not take on any task more than you can handle.)

AI Image Generator.

Honestly we should have seen this coming sometime down the line and it's happening, this is what us artist have to deal with when new tech takes over, just as traditional animators had to deal with when computers came along, then computer animation and so on. I have to admit that this system can generate some pretty cool art but still has it's flaws such as parts of the body is rendered oddly shape or duplicated.

Don't get twisted, this new system is hurting a lot of talented artist and taking jobs away and people are calling themselves AI artists. I don't know how I feel about that really, but artist do use tools in other media form to create something amazing, so is creating a text algorithm to create image consider art as well? You tell me.

Re-Cap 2022

Well 2022 wasn't to bad, even with a steady job I was still able to pump out some projects. Yeah mostly fan art sprite animations, but never the less original works followed behind.

Art.

Was able to work on a few commission projects this year art wise, where a commission animation is pending. Not too sure if I want to take that job honestly. I did put some time into my shop a little and much love to those whom continue to snag prints it means a lot.

Studio Change

A couple years ago I mention in a post that my brother and I plan on opening up a small shop. Well... due to covid this dream didn't fall through as we plan. A lot of distraction and challenges got in the way, I won't get into details but let's just say a whole lot of bs.

Much Love To You.

I tell you guys, if it wasn't for streaming I wouldn't have come across an awesome supportive community, don't get me wrong you guys are my Newgrounds family as well. So much love to the new followers here. It puts a big cool-ad smile on my face when I see that bell notification lit up.

Thank you for daily pick on Guilty Force.

Queen Mascot

It's been a year since the Queen's first/second trailer I guess. In the November post was a mission to work on the Queen as much as I could. Mission completed. Animated Sprite Form...Check! Animated Emote and Alerts...Check! Get a plush made...Check! And what a feet that was. Here is a live stream re-cap of the Opening Box.

They did an amazing job guys! Since I'm not a big streamer to do a fundraiser to get plush made I decided to go straight to the manufactures to get it done. I just placed an order to get 100 made, this is going into the new product line up for my shop. Yes I will be selling these first hand.

I also plan to do a special live stream for people to get a chance to win one as one of the giveaway prizes, or people you can just purchase one.

For next year's project start off I will try to do another short episode of Fallen Kingdom. A new year and a fresh start to get things moving. Animation projects maybe a bit slow for next year where I'll be busy moving somethings around and getting rid of more stuff for spring cleaning. Going to keep a mind set of getting a new vehicle and a new place to move to. (For-reals!)

Well I think that's all I have as of now guys! This is basically the works for this year here and else where. Let's see what 2023 has in mind for us all. This post is not tended to be a bragging post, I hope it gives you any type of inspiration to just keep on going. Do not let this AI stuff discourage you from doing something you love to do! Keep moving forward!

Winter is here and the Holidays is around the corner, so this concludes the final post for 2022. I hope to see you guys next year. Be safe all and let's start next year off strong.

Until Then.

Guilty Force is Published.

Greetings Newgrounds Peoples and Fans.

Just want you guys to know I'm currently brewing up some goodies on the side, mainly for my Queen mascot character. I'm glad she's making a mark in the streaming community and we would like to do something very special for her.

Queen Sprite Commission

:O WOW! Much love to Zardoc for creating the Queen in sprite form. I love it so much! This will definitely have a place on stream.

New Alert

Will animate a new alert for stream.

Fallen Kingdom 2

I do plan on creating a second short episode for her web animatic comic. Thanks Queeny! You pretty much filled up the project plate.

Queen Plush Project

So for the next 2 months or so I will be focusing on her for a bit.

This has been a long time coming for my little mascot and I think she'll will be worth every penny. People will get a chance to win one as well as to purchase one. I'm currently getting my pricing with different manufacturers as you reading this. If anyone know a really good manufacturers that can provide a really good deal for a low budget price. Let me know. I am searching on the Alibaba site.

Until Then

Winter is around the corner and Universal Flavor is ready for it with new long sleeve T-Shirts and Sweaters. Get ahead of nature and snag your print today! I've got mines :p

Guilty Force

Thanks for the love on the Rival of the Bullies match up.

I had so much fun working on it that I decide to brew up another match up between Leona and King vs Satsujin and Jam title Guilty Force.

The theme I have in mind with this is Leona and King are part of the Guilty Gear Force and wants to unlock the power Satsujin possesses with her hair. The concern I have with this project is will flash be able to handle the HD sprites?

There is the option of limiting the amount of sprites I can use as well as effects, and second is to create a split file to lighten the memory load from the other. I would like to stream this project as well but first is to prep the library. If this works out you can catch the making on my Twitch Page come join the chill stream and also chances to win prizes.

Be safe all!

Until Then

Rival of the Bullies!

Until Then.

Greetings Newgrounds Peoples and Fans

Well summer is over and the leaves are beginning to fall, that autumn cold feeling is here and this can be a sign that winter is going to be a cold one. Summer still hanging around a bit but not much longer.

Rival of the Bullies.

Yup! I know I've worked with Sakura in the Ryu vs Akuma saga and yes I'm giving her one more shot in another upcoming 2 on 2 bout between Karin and Ingrid vs Sakura and Hinata.

Sakura is finally done putting up with Karin's constant bullying, with her partner in crime Ingrid. Pretty much a typical school rivalry to prove which one is the best. And now the stage is set to end this rival once and for all.

Catch the making live on Twitch this weekend. Sorry I don't have set times when I stream, you'll just have to hit that follow button and turn on that notification button.  

Until Then

How do you handle things at work?

Hey guys! I would like to hear from you about how do/would handle things at work if you get annoyed by some of the things that take place in your work field.

Do you see managers/workers slacking off? Managers bark orders more than lending a helping hand or even taking the time to explain how the job should be done then just asking questions on how it should be done.

I find this quite annoying! Don't get it twisted, I'm a very hard worker where I'm sweating my ass off. But if I'm doing all the hard work and others just standing by watching instead of helping, it would be hard for me not to say anything without coming off as being an asshole.

So that's why it's always good to cover your own ass by taking picture of before and after snap shots before completing a job. Make a portfolio of what you do and you are covered. And you can pretty much tell them to go...

Art

Now that the rant is out of the way, as I mention in the last post I was going to invest in a new tablet and I have. After a couple of weeks of searching which tablet will suite me well. After comparing prices on ebay and amazon, thank god I just happened to come across the Xppen website. I don't think you will find any better deals on tablets than them.

So I got myself the Artist 12 standard version. Didn't wanted the touch screen or extra perks that comes with the other version. This tablet is perfect for what I do and I must say I love it! It's my very first screen tablet and thank god it works with the programs.

Also thank you guys for the front page! I know I'm late about it, but this is my very first front page pic, and I'm glad the Queen made it happen :D

New Universal Flavor Print Now Available.

Tough Girl 3 is here! I'm getting a shirt. :p

I'm currently trying to reach a 1300 follow goal on my Twitch channel. Once goal is reached I will be doing a big prize giveaway stream where you can win steam games, prints, sub to the channel, become vip, and money.

Must be following the channel for some time and no alt accounts are allowed to claim prizes.

Commission Close.

My schedule may get a bit busy again and I need to find that balance where I can sneak in some more contents. I'm not taking any commissions at the moment, not risking taking on more than I can chew.

Thank you! 3K on Youtube!

Much love to the new followers here on Newgrounds as well as the subscribers on my Youtube channel. Wow we reached 3K :O! Ohh that is so hot! Here's some naughty gifs for you!

Lol seriously! Thank you guys so much! It means a lot! I'm in art mode now, so it's going to be some time for me to do flash work. With that said, I've play the TMNT Shredders Revenge game and I love it! If these sprites happened to get ripped I have something in mind for our green heroes. As well as other projects I have in mind.

Anyways, this is where we conclude this post folks, just wanted to give you a bit of update.

Winter is coming.

Until Then

Sonic Zoom The Sonic Boom Music Video is Publish! I normally don't work with chibi type of sprites but I'll make it an exception since it's Sonic. The blue speedy hero. I must say working with Sonic was pretty damn fun I like how the project turned out. And I hope you sprite and Sonic fans get a kick out of it.

Until Then.

It's been a while.

Hi guys, yes I'm still alive, just been busy with my new schedule. A lot of my time was taking up the past couple of months and now things are a bit calm where I can relax a bit and continue to create contents.

Art

I will be revamping my shop soon with new design soon. I'm currently saving up for a new pen tablet. Been on a long break from creating art and animations... well that's not all true, I have been working on updating my Twitch page and website.

Sonic Zoom – Flash Sprite Music Video

Yeah it's true, I normally don't like to animate with these type of sprites but I've wanted to try my flash skillz on Sonic. No this is not a Mario vs Sonic or Mario Ball Z type of animation, this is just another one of my shits and giggles project I have in mind. This is just going to be a typical Sonic speed run to reach Robotnix. No story line, I would say more of a music video to show some love to the blue ball.

I got a chance to see the Sonic 2 movie and I must say I enjoyed it. In fact I would say it over shot part 1 by a long shot.

Doing a Sonic animation was in the back of my mind and seeing the movie just brought in front. I do plan to stream this project soon, so you're more than welcome to give me a follow on Twitch.

Well that's all I have for now guys. I've been lacking with inspiration lately and just been stream gaming when so. Enjoy the rest of your summer guys and be safe.

Until Then

Greetings Newgrounds Peoples and Fans.

Well summer is around the corner, time to put away the winter clothes and just let it all hang out.

To much BS is going one with the politics and who did what in the popularity contest, sorry not my cup of tea.

Community

Thank you new followers and supporters. I'm glad you guys like my content and I'm happy to do more when I can. But for now I will be taking some time off from Newgrounds for a bit until I can establish even more.

It wasn't a bad start for 2022, I was able to pump out a couple of movies as well as to host SD 4, also I've been active in the Binx community to where I got a custom paint job you can apply to your derby car.

If you're lucky you can come win the paint job which at times I stream on Friday's community day. To win one, you must be a Binx member. Highly recommend to join if you plan on becoming a Twitch streamer. A great active supporting community with lots of games and prizes you can win.

Lost a Sponsor! :/

On the downside, Twitch has been making some changes with their API system for what ever reason they have, which also cause one of my sponsors to leave the platform. I assume it's mainly for those pesky spam bots that's been harassing members about want to be famous or buying views. :/ Who would cheat their channel and why? Speaking of views, they also plan on dismissing all time views for channels due to some data can be inaccurate due to viewer bots attacking. So before so, I might as well take one last look on how I did for the past few years...

All Hail The Queen

Queeny is still getting a lot of love from the fans, I'm glad viewers are playing her game a lot more and she's still her sassy self. I've also went back to an commission animation that @mindchamber animated for me. It's an early version of the Queen so I went back to update her design frame by frame in Illustrator.

That's right! Illustrator. Yes I could of use Photoshop or Flash but I happen to find Illustrator a lot more easier to control the vector tool. Also getting the color pallet to match from Illustrator to Flash would be a pain in the ass to do and will require a lot more layers when drawing.

Well that's all I have for now guys! I may not post movies for some time.

Hope I can have some fun this summer and let loose.

Until Then
