This is long overdue but I want to thank everyone for the positive response from Baystaters and Psychic Psycho got, from the comments, the extra animation done by BigtexasTony, Huntercomics, Proud9000 and especially Jaster , if it wasn't for him i most likely would've completed both animations through his encouragement.

Baystaters

I also wanted to talk about my series Baystaters, its this series i've been making recently with the help of some friends, a slice-of-life show fallowing the lives of the main characters living in Worcester. It came a long way since I had the idea back in 2016 and 2017. But a problem i've been recently running into is not giving it the proper attention it deserved. While working on episode 2 (which is currently being worked on) i've had ideas for other animations i want to do, some that i probably won't even have the opportunity to make until next year, as well a barely talking about the show or drawing the characters, so i figured i'll change that for better now, as my mind wondering on cool stuff i want to make is getting really distracting.

I've also been working on the show for a while, so redesigns and art changed or inevitable, the show already looks nothing like it did in episode 1 now, as multiple characters have been redesigned and changed for the better, i need to redesign more characters in the future but this is what i've done so far

they look a hell of a lot better then their first incarnation, back when my art was a Matt Wilson clone

Art and Animation

Like i said before my mind always wonders on creating new content instead of working on the stuff i have, this is because of a sort of work process i have. i feel like i need to be constantly animating something, and if i'm not i'm wasting my time. So whenever i have free time i feel like i need to work on something, whether its a friends project, a test animation or something else, i most haven't taken a solid 1 month break from aniamtion int he past 3 years, and i'm ok with this, but the problem is with my free time as an artist. i want my art to impove, or at least try soemthing different, so whenever i have the freetime to draw and try something different i either do it for 5 minutes and stop or give up and ask if someone needs something to be animated. this may seem like i'm taking art to seriously or trying to hard but i think my perspective of art has changed in the past 3 years when i started drawing. I've read more comics, seen more movies, and gained a lot more inspirations then i did back then, i made this image back in august of 2020, and since then i had a lot more fun drawing and animating and trying new things

once i'm done doing the work for my friends i need to sit on my ass and do art, even if it looks like shit at least i'm trying something different, especially with animation as there are different techniques and ways of animation i want to do that i've been inspired by, and i need to just sit down and improve my craft, i know it won't happen in a week or maybe even in a couple of months, but i feel like it would be worth it.

Hobbies and Skills

During the past couple of months i recently took an interest in 3d, after i gave up on it a couple of years ago. I'm glad i'm doing something different, even though it seems really daunting i'm willing to try 3d, and i feel like it could be really fun to do, as well as incorporating it in my animation. I've also taken an interst in video editing, nothing crazy, just simple stuff what i can do if a want to make a ytpmv or something, i feel like i need an interest that isn't related to art, you could say video editing is art but i feel like its different enough to feel less derivative compared to me modeling a charcater or drawing an in-between, ya know?

The Future

You probably won't see an animation thats longer then a minute anytime soon, especially one that isn't an animation test, bump, or stupid joke, so if you where waiting for the next beautifally animated 15+ minute cartoon coming out your out of luck, i've just been busy with art, school, and my friends.

TLDR:

want to imrpove art, ty for the support, want to try new things in the future

that pretty much everything i wanted to talk about in this post, hope this doesn't make me sound gay or whinny but i feel like this was needed, cya!
