continuing to try out the shape fill/connecting-pen approach (and lack of clean up/refining) with this explosion it's actually been pretty fun wheeze #2DFX #2danimation

(hopefully less compressed GIF version:)

Here is some behind the scenes for our legend sixty s*ven trailer for @Brawlhalla! I actually did both character animation and compositing for this one. It was a fun challenge! #Brawlhalla #animation #art

trying a different drawing method no cleanup/touchups, auto-fill connecting pen/brush, and just drawing whatever shapes and timing came to mind #2dfx #2danimation

handful of FX done for the recent This is #Brawlhalla 10th anniversary animated short (hopefully not super Twitter compressed)

Tis more blessed to give than receive! 🎅 Happy Brawlhallidays and Merry Christmas, one and all! @Brawlhalla @RaymanGame #Rayman #Brawlhalla

If you’re even remotely celebrating what happened to Charlie Kirk because you disagree with his politics, you need to reevaluate your values. It’s absolutely horrific.

RIP Charlie Kirk. It doesn’t matter what your opinion is of Charlie or his politics if you don’t view this as one of the darkest days in American history than you are part of the problem.

BG animation and sparks from earlier in the same shot was a bit rusty on BG animation stuff, but it was cool to try something like this again

ending explosion and flare FX

I got to animate some cool stuff for this crossover, including a bunch of FX for this trailer the explosion at the end was almost cathartic, since it's been quite a while since I've gotten to animate one like that wheeze

I was able to storyboard and co-direct for our Kung Fu Panda crossover trailer! This was the shot I got to animate myself. #brawlhalla #animation #2Danimation #kungfupanda

Most of my Brawlhalla stuff is generally all in-game, so it was definitely cool to be able to contribute some quick FX for some cuts in this short

So apparently this is going/went around on Twitter and IG, so just to clarify: while I did do FX work on this, it was only at the VERY end, and a pretty small part at that- what's shown and analyzed in this clip is nothing of mine

literally coming out of my tweet retirement for this one

Hot takes: as much as I love Yakuza 0, somebody *PLEASE* end the Baka Mitai meme and end that dang stickbug too, it's basically Spinning Roach 2.0 yes, I am aware what the obvious responses to this will be but I had to get it out there, I know I'm not the only one
