Where's Tarboy?

[PICONJO: Reqiuem]

I love how he gets ass fucked across infinite different parallel universes. The Singularity has begun.

Your shitposting gives me strength. Invite me for the next one ya hear?

[Finding Richard Aiken (Resident Evil)]

My new favorite part is when Jill makes the rather Sherlock Holmes-ian deduction that he has been wounded, while standing in a confident feminist pose showing the powerful woman she is.

10/10! Amazy-Daisy! C-word!

[Life is like a sandwich]

Your animation style has some real potential, keep practicing and improving

[Sketch Collab 2020]

Nice to see that NG is supporting the Sketch Collab series for a change. I was the animator that did the finale on the 2013 sketch collab. Back then we got maybe a day or two on the FP, which was really discouraging to home grown collabs on here. Now it seems that every other month there is a new collab involving the whole site.

I guess NG realized that they should encourage the up and coming animators rather than FP'ing the stuff by the same artists over and over again for weeks like they did back in the day. Who knows what NG would have been now if they gave those collabs this level of exposure. Might have fostered some of the really talented animators I knew from taking off due to a lack of appreciation.

Anyway, glad the spirit is still alive and the volume of high quality animation parts has increased. Cool to see all the new animators on the scene before-hand I didn't know about.

Well done

[Fanimation: Sonic - Triple S! (Sonic the hedgehog)]

Be careful with your line art on close ups. You probably want to clean that up more in flash, especially early on. Over all cool style, you're definitely exploring more of a 3d space. Keep it up!

[Hustle Boy: Essential Worker]

I can usually get a nice cheap laugh out of the "Fat degenerate brony" punchline, but it sort of just feels like an easy crutch with this one. It didn't feel clever, just banked on grossout humor. I get it the guy is disgusting, hilariously relatable and awkward, the end. I feel like I've seen it before.

Also not really sure why it was set in a Blade Runner-esque setting. Since the coronavirus is present day, why would this exist in the future? Is the virus repeating itself? Wouldn't there be a cure by then?

I like some of your previous stuff where maybe the references felt a little more creative and unexpected. The latest Rubyer also felt like it was going for more of that #relevant humor too unfortunately. I guess the latter isn't my cup of tea.

[The Lighthouse Girl]

The Digipen valedictorians return... Creme de la creme :p

Beautiful still, and we were just talking the other night on the streams about you releasing on NG. Cool of you to share it here too. Like everyone is saying it's aged extremely well, looks like you might be having a brush with something timeless. A lot of love in this project.

Catch you on the streams.

Esty

[What Really Happens when Some Pokemons use these moves]

Nice work for your first one, keep it up!

[Super Mario Adventures - Chapter 1]

Wow I thought you did something semi-coherent for once. Turns out it is just an rip of the actual comic Super Mario Adventures. Okay then. Nice try subtly adding Kentaro Takekuma's name next to yours like he helped write the piece above lmao. I guess ripping off works is still second nature for you; although at least you credited the fan magazine.

The traced line draw parts clash pretty bad with the rest of the works. (Although there were some non-traced parts that could use some work, but I have to give you credit there, I think.) A lot of the sprites are too low resolution for close ups like with the toads.

Also I think a lot is lost in this comic being turned into an animation by you. For example you look at the comic of the shot where toad introduces the messy pipes. The original comic shot has depth and complexity that's humorous due to the ridiculousness of pipes.Your shot is flat and looks like it took all of 2 minutes to layout of pipes all at the same angle. Not even twisting around each other. A characterizing shot turned into one that lacks character. There were some nice ideas like the way Mario attached the pipes and certain canned reactions. But it always verges on being another smbz rip. Not something that feels like an adaptation of the sprite world meeting the comic.

I think that's about it, probably more than what I needed to write anyway. I do think this is some of your better work, but that might be because mainly it wasn't written by you. Could have been worse though!

*Behold below a man child's attempt to take criticism. Same as it has been all these years. vvvvvv
