Woke up to a bunch of new followers, thanks so much!
I'm Kreid, a 2D animator from the days of old. I used to do a lot of web toons (Studio Yotta, Eddsworld, Weebls-stuff etc.) I've worked on Super Meat Boy and directed on Smiling Friends!
One day, I hope to revive my personal work, Vampire Pixel!

How rude

KREID⏎ @kreidoodle.bsky.social · Mar 28

Fuck I'm jealous

KREID⏎ @kreidoodle.bsky.social · Mar 27

Oh hey! Good times!

Oh hell yes! I use a Nextar 6SE that I managed to get a good deal on. Amazing to have a computerized one for photography but the field is pretty wide on it

KREID⏎ @kreidoodle.bsky.social · Mar 20

Oh hey, I got to work as a lead on this!

Another show I worked on is getting promoted. This one is a fun cartoon. Very funny!

Oof yikes yeah, that room was so unique in the original

I played through TTS recently for the first time and the whole game's colour palette feels so dull. Not in the grimy, secret nuclear facility kinda dull either. Just no real differentiation between areas. The prison cell was the worst offender imo

Really makes you feel disposable, too. If I don't make this hip funny cartoon of Mario and Sonic dabbing for the 12th time, then some other poor shmuck will. I left YT stuff feeling burned out and hollow.

KREID⏎ @kreidoodle.bsky.social · Feb 20

If you don't know your own worth, someone else will dictate that for you. Likely in their favour.

KREID⏎ @kreidoodle.bsky.social · Feb 20

I started my career with a lot of YT work and this thread is some solid advice for starting up. Don't repeat my mistakes and put yourself through hell because you think it's the only way to "make it". The "struggling artist" mindset is BS. Respect yourself. It took me too long to learn that.

So you're a young animator with mad skills about to do your first freelance commission. Do yourself a huge favour and get a contract that sets out the scope of work and agreed payment terms.

It may seem big and scary but remember that this is to protect both parties involved.

That means you.

That looks clean! Tau vehicles just have so many huge, smooth panels that I'm worried about if I did it by hand

KREID⏎ @kreidoodle.bsky.social · Feb 19

I need to get an airbrush soon. Trying to get my combat patrol ready and I don't think I can do a Devilfish by hand

Man, I still vividly remember making out the rings of Saturn for the first time. I love astrophotography, but seeing it with your bare eyes is just something to behold
