WE'RE BACK with a MEGA UPLOAD that was too big for one post so I had to part it in two, see you guys in a week with the second part (and the Webtoons update!) OR you can read the whole thing on my Patreon early! 👍

Patreon - And thank you guys so much for your patience for this update!! :D ☺️💖 It took AGES because of the backgrounds...

I had a dream where I was carrying a bag of groceries back home and a tiger cub came out of it? I ended up taking her in and raising her as my own daughter 😭

Here's panels on how my dream went.

I was just rewatching camp cretaceous and thinking about the writing and storyboarding process for a show that does silent/physical comedy so well and then I discovered your tumblr! amazing work!

Aw thank you so much!! We were a script driven show so some of it was thanks to our writers coming up with funny material to work with, and then a lot of the physical/visual comedy in Camp Cretaceous and Chaos Theory was thanks to the direction of one of our showrunners, Aaron Hammersley-- he comes from a storyboarding and directing background himself, and he often did passes on the animatics to punch up the acting and comedy even more. I got to work directly with him when I started out as a revisionist on Camp Cretaceous, and I tried to learn from and emulate his comedic sensibilities (in addition to learning from and emulating all my other incredibly talented coworkers haha).

You can particularly tell whenever Aaron touched a scene though-- like, you can almost see his drawings and recognize his timing even when it's translated to 3D. The shot of Ben falling over and screaming for sliiightly too long from the clip that was released today is one of his revisions that wasn't originally scripted, for example. I think probably the BEST example of his is the scene from Camp Cretaceous when Ben is staring at Bumpy and slowly shaking his head with those haunted eyes as she plops down in his sleeping spot-- that was pretty much exactly how Aaron drew it and timed it haha.

A lot of it comes down to thinking about the character's personality and what they'd do, picking strong expressions, limiting the movement of everything around that expression, and being allowed to let the timing breathe. It's really interesting-- a scene from a script can be made into something completely different depending on who's boarding it/who's directing it/how the interpretation of the script is approached.

Even though we were on script driven shows, part of the process of being a storyboard artist was working with our episodic directors to translate the script visually before it was animated, and troubleshooting any problems that arose while visually translating it. If we were able to pitch ideas that supported what was written in the script but took things further/we came up with good solutions to problems that also elevated the storytelling, we were given a lot of support from leadership in return-- particularly on Chaos Theory!

sighhhh more lazy sleepy benbaro

there is a version of this with a bg but it's shit

as usual barok is a nightmare to draw but Albert could never fail me 💝

sorry for clogging the benbaro tag guys theyre in my brayne

headcanons and a doodle under the cut if anyone's curious

-Albert is double jointed, completely unrelated to anything here

-he usually sleeps naked and on his back

-barok is embarrassingly cuddly, he will either lay flat on top of Albert like a very heavy, very muscular blanket, or he'll curl up around him like a cat

-he needs wine or a warm drink to sleep, a record of a soothing orchestral piece, and at least 30 minutes of reading, and only sleeps in his perfectly made bed

-Albert can just pass out anywhere at a moments notice. click and he's out.

-eventually they end up living together and Albert puts on some healthy muscle and weight since he's eating higher quality food

-extremely random headcanon but I think Albert goes blind in his 60s

(Temenos chp2, sorta, spoilers!) I really liked this small interaction in this scene so I thought I might try and give it a go! 🤭 I took a lot of liberties with the acting, hope you guys like it! hehe

begging and pleasing to hear more abt the colosseum au pls

oh jesus. most of it is in its tag but. okay so for context this whole thing started because a conversation between me and the only person in the world who gets botw like i do @eggymegs when we were. seventeen years old. because we were (are) both insanely obsessed with botw and the covid lockdowns had just started so rather than coping in a normal way we were exploring and analyzing the entire map. for whatever reason we latched onto the coliseum as a setting full of a lot of potential and based on that initial conversation i drafted an au where link ran away after finding the master sword and hid in plain sight as a gladiator. It was one of my first real forays into comic writing and a lot of it was kind of messily executed because i was 17 but it was also the first time i'd ever seriously tried to write a comic with like. real underlying themes and a POINT to its narrative so it was definitely sort of a gateway endeavor for me. I would definitely consider the first chapter (posted 4 years ago today lol) my first-ever black-and-white zelda comic, which is the type of content that i'd say i'm most known for nowadays lol. There are elements in that au that inspired/led to basically every comic in my zine, however indirectly, so it definitely still holds a special place in my heart. I still enjoy the story and concept too, although there are certain things i might do differently now. I never quite got to the climax of what I had planned before I lost interest and moved on to other things, though, so if you do go looking for it know that it isn't and probably won't ever be a full story, it was more like a fun little writing/art exercise for me lol. occasionally I'll go back to thinking about it just because i still find the story and characters i created interesting and think there's something worth exploring in them, but i can't promise any real new content or resolution lol

[fbpanimations]

I rub my thumb over the stub of my missing finger top, bitten off by one of Madoc's guards, and realize abruptly that if I told Cardan about it, he might understand. Maybe more than anyone, he'd comprehend the odd mingling of fear and shame I feel -- even now -- when I think of it. For all our conflicts, there are moments when we understand each other entirely too well. (Jude, QON, Ch 20)

He considers explaining how much he despised the palace as a child, how he dreamed of escaping Elfhame. She knows most of that already. (Cardan, HTKOELTHS)

Once, she told Cardan the story of confronting Madoc after she'd drugged him, but before the poison began to work. (Cardan, HTKOELTHS)

Soft evidence of Jude and Cardan removing their armor, “one piece at a time”, via sharing their stories with each other.

As a rule, every Monday a bunch of websites are checked for the Archive which is generally if new artwork has been snuck up on one that has done so multiple times, vimeo, artstation and speakerdeck. Usually nothing pops up which hey it happens! But just occasionally...

As chosen by yesterday's poll here is very unexpected additional work by Marko Bajic! This was the only Trollhunters addition in the form of Grand Theft Otto.

Look at this nerd. Only the second sequence ever to appear with Otto featured somewhere.

As the poll tied for next week I'm making an executive decision and picking it myself. Look forward to 3Below then!

ok art thought of the day: i think i struggle with making comics because i deep down wish i could just draw movies. and i dont mean like creating an animated movie or drawing storyboards to make a movie from (no disrespect to either of course), like i can see the story unfold in my head and i want to take the skills i have with drawing and just Make it how i see it. but the way i see it in my head (movie pacing and sound and framing) vs what makes a good comic to read are different. alas
