Goin through an old sketchbook right now and goddamn I'm fuckin hilarious. What the hell even is this.

A study of Misty Copeland and Brooklyn Mack in their history making performance of Swan Lake. Utilizing the glazing technique, which would probably save a lot of time, but sometimes I just kind of enjoy picking out colors and manipulating them. It's fun to see where the piece ends up.

Yet, this was also to practice painting darker skin tones as they can end up being very reflective compared to lighter ones. Capturing all of the different materials the costumes were made out of was also its own challenge, but I had to keep remembering to just paint whatever I saw.

[jupitercl0uds]

soooo glad im a fictional character enjoyer instead of celebrity fan. nothing against celebrity fans (as a whole at least) but its so good to know that typically if theres something problematic about Character then 1) they don't exist so its fine or 2) if its their va they can just be recast

Just so everyone is aware, ayathefly, the account who claims to be a temp voice actress for Dragons Rising, is almost certainly my cyber stalker from last month.

She has almost the exact same story as one of the stalker accounts used to try and befriend me. Back then she was a 23yo temp voice actress named Maya who had a comedically whimsical story about her not knowing information about the ducktales reboot she was hired for. This time she's a 23yo temp voice actress named Aya who has a comedically whimsical story about not knowing information about the Ninjago reboot she was hired for. Both the accounts used generic profile pics from classic cartoons, reblogged posts of mine shortly after creating their account, and had this manner of speaking in their posts which immediately set off alarm bells in my head.

In case you are not privy to the saga, this person made a bunch of false accusations about me on one account while defending me on another in order to, I guess, try and win my favor. This after harassing, threatening, and otherwise pestering me on a number of spam accounts. This includes the full range of pretending to be a fan with a tragic story about a dead brother, to weird sex foot fetish fantasies. Since then I have received emails claiming to be showrunners interested in my feedback which I'm also certain are her.

I have also linked them back to the zanenindroid account, and the parachutingkitfanpage, both abandoned at this point, presumably because they didn't get traction.

I need you to understand I was on the fence about sharing this information. Even if they're making my life annoying, this person has at times claimed to be 16 in messages to me in the past (I figure it's possible that the 23yo thing might just be her pretending to be my same age) and I don't want to be the guy who calls out a kid who lied on the internet to try and get friends- even if what they're doing is ABSOLUTELY inexcusable, it's only really affecting me. I know how to use the block button. Turning off non-follow messaging and anon asks is annoying, but not that huge a deal if it means cutting off avenues for them to contact me.

But recently my MOTHER informed me that she got some strange messages from someone claiming to be a 23yo voice actress, and tried gaslighting her into believing she knew her mom from a writing group like 10 years ago (which is not possible btw), and should TOTALY introduce her to me, because we're the same age, and both interested in animation.

I can't not talk about this anymore. When you bring my family into this, you lose any attempt at mercy from me.

Especially given we have quite a few minors in the fandom, I feel obligated to say something. I would not feel comfortable with anyone I know or care about interacting with this person, regardless of how harmless this person thinks their intentions are. They have proved themselves to be a manipulative, lying, unhinged, and obsessive personality willing to put someone they presumably like through some of the scariest scenarios you can find yourself in on the internet- and then drag your family into it. I would ask that you do not interact, do not give them the time of day, do not try to reason with them, and try your best not to be fooled by new accounts that pop up a week from now with suspiciously similar behavior, because I'm almost certain that will happen if Aya goes silent.

Maybe you think I'm paranoid, and over blowing things, and that's your call to make, but I would not be making this post if I did not feel strongly about this.

Even if somehow this is not the same person, and I am falsely linking these two nearly identical identities, at the very least Aya is not who she proports to be. She claims to have provided temp voices for season 3 just this month (temp voices being temporary voice work done before the actual actors are able to record their lines), but Devon Mack (voice actor for Arin) has confirmed that he was in the middle of recording the official dialogue for season 3 back in January of this year. The idea that the production team would only just now be recording TEMP dialogue for animation that's going to release in just a few months is an absolutely WILD claim. I can not convey to you what an insanely truncated timeline that would be. I don't even think that Dragons Rising is a the kind of show to use temp dialogue, none the less have the budget and time to hire out if they did need temp voices, rather than just using production members like most temp work.

Please, be careful out there everyone.

I'm praying I never have to address this again.

Respectfully… as a little treat, do you have any plot points you abandoned from any of your fics that you’d be willing to share with the class?

YEAH i have a public scene from dare not speak it's name!!! this is the super unfinished, disjointed chaos of it all but:

“I’m gonna put you down in front of the guys,” Nate says. “They don’t know how to handle a pretty trad boy like you in the room, alright? I’ve gotta show ‘em.” 

Jo chews on his lip. JO IS UNSURE. “You’ll be there the whole time?” he asks. 

Nate smiles, nuzzles into the side of Jo’s neck, presses a soft kiss there. “They’re all gonna wanna steal you when they see you,” Nate tells him. “There’s nothing in the world that’s getting me away from your side,

“He always goes down like this?” 

“Sweet thing,” Nate says, tapping Jo’s cheek gently. Jo blinks open a groggy eye, stares up at him. “The boys wanna know if you’re always this good.” 

“C’mon, put your back into it,” Nate taunts. Jo can hear the smirk in his voice, and it trickles down his spine like warm water, how pleased Nate sounds. 

“Jo,” Devon snaps, throwing all the weight of his dynamic into the command, “Get up.” 

Once, it would’ve made Jo move so fast he got whiplash. Now, Jo takes a deep breath, lets the words wash over him as he waits for the command he’ll actually follow. 

“Jo,” Nate’s voice comes. “Get up.” His words don’t have any of the force Devon’s did; they’re light, easy. But still, they hook into Jo’s brain, reel him in like a fish. He’s back on his feet before Nate’s really finished speaking. 

“Good boy, Joey, come on back,” Nate says, and Jo drops to his hands and knees, crawls back to his place between Nate’s legs. 

“Holy shit,” someone mutters. 

“He’d do anything you told him to?” Bo asks.  

“Mmm,” Nate hums. “Yeah, he trusts me. That’s my job. I can make him do anything, but I won’t. Right, Jo? You trust me?”  

Jo could scoff at such a ridiculous question. Of course he trusts Nate. “Yes, sir.” 

“You wanna suck Moose’s cock, show him how pretty you look with your mouth full?” Nate asks. 

Jo’s eyes dart up, assessing Nate warily. But Nate’s just watching him evenly; no tricks, no tests, just a question. 

“Do you want that?” Jo whispers, just for Nate. 

“Just be good, baby,” Nate tells him, combing a hand through his hair. Jo nods, turns his eyes to where Mikko’s sat next to Nate. He frees himself from the bracket of Nate’s legs, shuffles until he’s between Mikko’s knees. He rests his hands on his linemate’s thighs, blinks up at him. 

“Can I?” 

Mikko’s mouth hangs open, dumbstruck, as he nods. Jo rubs his hands up Mikko’s legs, slow and a little teasing. He bows his head so he’s watching Mikko through his eyelashes, toys with his belt buckle before sliding his thumb under the prong and lifting it. 

The leather’s expensive, slides smoothly through the buckle under Jo’s ministrations. 

He undoes Mikko’s zipper, is about to slide his fingers inside to where Mikko’s already getting hard when Nate says,

“Stop, Jo.” 

Jo’s hand pauses, looks at his dom. 

Nate pats his thigh. “Come on back, proper form.” 

Jo leaves Mikko with his belt unbuckled and his zipper down, ignores the strangled, “What the fuck, Mack?” that follows Jo’s retreat.

“Apologize,” Nate says, “You left Mikko wanting something.”

“Sorry, Mikko,” Jo says, soft and sincere, even as he brushes his lips over the jut of Nate’s ankle before he pillows his head back against the floor. 

“How long can he stay like that?” Bo asks. 

Nate taps the back of Jo’s head, and Jo takes his cue, swallows him down deeper until his nose is nestled in the hair at the base of his cock. 

“We’ve made it an hour, right, sweet thing?” 

Jo lifts his eyes and blinks once, long and slow. Yes. 

“He could go longer,” Nate says,

[welcome-to-green-hills]

So Ian Flynn lied and said that it tied in with the games. I don’t see how this ties in with the games.

Hello, my dear!❤️✨

I can completely understand the anger and frustration that you’re feeling. I do. I would feel just as annoyed. Umm, I’m having a bit of trouble on my end trying to find the source of where people are saying that “Flynn made Prime canon to a game timeline.”

For me, I’ve been going on this interview that Logan (the show’s producer) and Devon Mack have said back in late 2022. Just a quick recap: they said that they use the back bones of the games to establish its OWN canon. Meaning that the events of the games can go INTO Sonic Prime, but Sonic Prime CANNOT be used for the game’s timeline. If you’re interested, you can watch the video here! It’s about seven minutes long. This is my understanding of the situation at least.

This need to make every different interpretation of Sonic into one MASSIVE piece is only creating headaches…😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

[tahelms85]

They make a second Forever Red special. These are the Rangers:

Hunter Bradley Conner McKnight Jack Landors Nick Russell Mack Hartford Casey Rhodes Scott Truman Jayden Shiba Troy Burrows Tyler Navarro Brody Romero Devon Daniels

It's revealed to be a two part special, two hour long special.

The villain is a team up between an escaped Emperor Gruumm and a rebuilt Venjix virus in a more sturdy body.

Do you think it'd be better than the first, or worse?

[speedofsoundsketches]

I'm curious, do you have specific favorite voice actors for the Sonic characters? (Like just the main few, Sonic, Shadow, Tails, etc.) if so, may we know your favorites?

Brace yourselves, this is gonna be a long one so under the cut.

Jun'ichi Kanemaru is THE standard for Sonic. The guy is passionate about the role and captures him perfectly. Plus, he's a great singer! The English VA that came closest to matching him is Jason Griffith. (honorable mention to Devon Mack. Low as my opinion is of Prime, Devon's voice is actually pretty suitable for Sonic. Would like to hear him in a better product!)

The late Chikao Ōtsuka for Eggman was wonderful, but I have zero complaints with Mike Pollack. Really, no matter what style or tone he's portrayed Eggman in, he's always done it superbly. I'd say of all English VA's that worked in this series, Mr. Pollack's probably been the one who's NEVER had a miss. Guy's got incredible range even in his work outside of Sonic (using this as a chance to shill the Pluto Anime since he starred in it. GO WATCH IT PLEASE.)

Tails is really really REALLY hard to mess up. His voice actresses have typically been great at capturing him (save for OVA Tails who talks like he has a cold). Coleen's a fine Tails and suitable replacement for Amy Palant but I may still prefer Palant just because she's the nostalgic one for me being in all the 2000's games plus Sonic X.

Knuckles voice preference is a tough call. His VA needs to be able to play up both his aggressive and gentler sides. It's a toss up between Dan Green and his current VA Dave B Mitchell. Mitchell has been doing good work in the animated shorts so I like him and he's the best we've had since Dan moved on. His Japanese VA, Nobutoshi Kanna, is great as well for the same reasons. :)

Amy's best actress is still her JPN VA, Taeko Kawata (who is also a lovely singer!) Lisa Ortiz to this day is STILL her best ENG VA. She captured Amy's youthful, cutesy appeal but can IMMEDIATELY switch to her assertive side naturally. Fantastic range and it's too bad that Amy's assertiveness has been subdued so much lately that this can't be fully appreciated anymore.

Cream's had far fewer options to choose from. I like both her actresses in JPN (Sayaka Aoki) and ENG (Rebecca Honig) honestly. I do like the almost whispery gentleness to her ENG voice particularly. Just helps her feel very soft and sweet.

Shadow's JPN VA, Kōji Yusa, is so good. You really can't go wrong here. For the ENG VA, this might be a bit controversial because while I appreciate David Humphrey as Shadow's debut in SA2, I'm still partial to Jason Griffith purely because once he got accustomed to Shadow as a character, he really elevated the role. I think his performance in 06 was one of the best moments for the character overall.

Rouge might one of the few times where I actually prefer her current ENG voice actress, Karen Strassman, to her older one. Her JPN VA, Rumi Ochiai, is THE standard tho so Karen just suits her best as a close match! Youthful yet still mature and her flirty quality doesn't sound too forced.

Omega's JPN VA (Taiten Kusunoki) IS SO AMAZING. It's hilariously deeper than I expected but still robotic so something about it just WORKS. His ENG VA is alright too. But I just love the JPN Voice, I don't know why.

May do a part two if I have time for the others!

SONIC PRIME "AVOID THE VOID" STORYBOARD COMPARISON

Inspired by what some of my colleagues have posted to Tumblr and IG, I’ve put together this side-by-side comparison of my Sonic Prime storyboards and the final animation. This clip is the climactic ending to “Avoid The Void,” an episode I’m particularly proud of. It’s the first one of Season Two, where Sonic and Shadow finally meet in the Shatterverse. It’s the moment their storyline, which started in Season One, connects and leads to a vicious no-holds-barred punk rock brawl!

I wasn’t supposed to direct this episode, as I had already moved on to direct a Peanuts special for Apple+ (though continued as EP on season two, but not on season three), but this episode fell into my lap due to a glitch in the schedule. So it was Peanuts by day, Sonic by night, with three weeks to build the animatic with the storyboard team. Because we had half the time we usually have, we kept our boards rough, rarely tying down a drawing. Anyway, what’s the point of doing tight drawings when it’s going to be CG, right?

Below, a still from act three of Avoid the Void, when Sonic blasts out of the Ghost World/Ghost Green Hill.

From the early stages, when Man of Action was breaking out this episode, it was clear that this one had the potential to be something big and cinematic. Set in the surreal world of the Shatterspace, it combined weighty emotional drama with intense action. At long last, it was also the big Shadow episode that fans had been patiently waiting for!

The photo below is a screen-cap from a Zoom record of Sonic Prime's "Avoid The Void." All the voice actors are Canadian. While Duncan (one quarter of Man Of Action) and I are in Los Angeles. Seen here are (left to right) Devon Mack, Erik Wiese, Duncan Rouleau, Andrew Duncan, James Corrigall, and Ian "Shadow" Hanlin. 

Below are some storyboard panels I drew from the opening sequence from Avoid The Void. I had to add spot color because I wanted to give the feeling of the void and also because of the different colors of the gateways.

I hope you enjoy this behind-the-scenes look at Sonic Prime.

P.S. A shout-out to the hugely talented STORYBOARD TEAM and ANIMATION CREW! You guys rock!
