first genuine storyboard exercise I've done for myself (and first one I've done in general since animation college) and had a blast!

utilized bits from Little Mermaid + Thomas and Magic Railroad's shockingly wide library of workprint/BTS materials

full disrespect but it's funny as hell seeing people on here be like "oh its only getting hate so people can be misogynistic" or "oooh its just another age gap discourse" as if [as a former fan] as if this comic wasn't the most embarrassing dogshit by the end

Lore Olympus getting its series greenlit after half a decade in development hell, the comic itself crash'n'burning and becoming a joke online, merch sales tumbling, and the previous showrunner selling out to AI after wrecking her career be like

So I've just ended up paying for a very costly car repair job just before a big pair of out-of-town trips this weekend, and it's drained my account a loooot more than I'd like to admit

If anyone is able to throw a few dollars my way to help out, it would be very much appreciated

watched Muppet Christmas Carol with family after turkey dinner per the choice of my siblings

was a purist and went "nooooo you gotta do the 4K cuuut" at first, but glad it was switched after When Love is Gone because trying to keep steady at "Not Tiny Tim!" felt like

I wish we got more behind the scenes stuff for the Hercules series because we get beautiful things like the prop designers being told "okay so we need you to design a Grecian Super Soaker"

me: man I really wanna get more active here even though not many of my moots are active in these parts. What am I so afraid of?

a certain creator any time someone speaks even the slightest criticism about her cartoon:

I think we should acknowledge more that some writers and creators just plain suck no matter how many chances they're given and maybe its the folks surrounding them that actually cook instead of them

"what's the problem it's just fiction not reality"
