#one is also an unfinished animatic

[eda-in-crocs]

Thinking about all the unfinished amphibia sketches and projects I have lying around on my computer. I could probably share them if anyone's interested-

Also thinking about the Amphibia AU ideas I've never shared that I wanted to write as fanfictions 😔they were so interesting and almost fleshed out, but only in my head because I suck at writing down notes- One of them was a Fairytale AU with Sasha as a dragon, Anne as a knight and Marcy as a princess. Sounds simple but its actually so deep you don't understand. Frogs are kappas, toads are dragons, newts are Unicorns. Andrias propaganda about war with dragons because they stole their wings n they are the rightful owners (pegasus) but its lies and he is just jelly. Dragons can recover from every wound, but when severely damaged turn to stone to recover faster but have a gem inside them instead of a heart that when taken out kills them so they crumble to dust. Andrias experimenting on Marcy (her and Sasha came to the world as babies, Anne as teenager, all 3 as "humans") and telling her it's to "find a cure for her" because she's different, but it's actually him trying to find a way to get wings. etc etc etc And thats not even the actual story stuff that happens with the 3 girls. I am so normal about them.

The other one was a Paranormal/Cryptid AU with Sasha being a cryptid, Marcy a paranormal researcher and Anne, well, she just loves exploring lost places I think jhasdhgasdghas There was so much happening there. Imagine little Marcy getting inspired by scientist Andrias (who is a normal human in this AU) because even though he does science he says he believes in paranormal things because "Wouldn't it be the dream of a scientist to have prove of something that has never been proven real? But that's just an old guy dreaming, I'm happy with the things I do now." haha

Anygays *vanishes back into the void I came from for another year or two or mayhaps a few days*

does anyone on this god damn site even think about amphibia

[mogamingthe1st]

I need to stop going and reading/watching/viewing my unfinished projects because I know for a fact I'll never finish them and it makes me sad because the start is so good for no reason

[oobbbear]

This rant has 1 target audience and it’s me sorry I like to talk about my unfinished/abandoned stories like they’re successful tv shows and I’m the director getting interviewed about the little details of said show

I love afterland postal so so so much you don’t know how hard it was for me to cut it, but it got to the point that it’s effecting my mental health so I had to stop it. His story in the afterlife is a healing journey, so for that healing journey to be effective I have to make the downfall in his past life hurt, like, HURT hurt, and I went a bit too far that and focused on it a bit too much that I was not working on the healing part anymore. Everyday I regret the making of water angel cause it ended being my fav instead of the protagonists and it being the physical manifestation of death made me focus on the downfall of the story too much, until it literally just crumbled to the ground. If I pick back up Dolus’s story one day I will cut out water angel entirely and maybe most part of his past life, focusing mainly on the afterlife part and how he recovers/deal with his past traumas and rid of bad habits. I want to draw this gremlin again so so bad.

Afterland Postal is a story about learning to love life through death. I like to draw Dolus with CT moon and Callisto sitting together because all three of their stories are about “learning to love life again through the death”. In Dolus’s case is his literal death. For CT moon is him fantasizing death. And for Callisto is through the death of her old life.

After the “death” all three of learned to love themselves again by traveling. They see the world in different perspectives, goes out of their bubbles and get a taste of the wild possibilities of what life has to offer.

For Dolus, I specifically placed him in this post office that delivers mails to the living plane so he can run around experiencing the world but doesn’t have to deal with life? One of his big thing is that he enjoys simply existing, he likes observing the world, feel his surroundings, I had an entire chapter that’s describing how he sees the world through his 5 senses. The feelings are the only thing he enjoyed about life, now he’s a ghost life doesn’t have effect on him anymore, he can really slow down sit down and look at the world he didn’t have the time to look at before, see what he missed and what he may have never be able to see.

For CT moon is basically all described in that If my world goes Bang comic.

Callisto is a different case cause she doesn’t die, strongest fucking character in my stories she survived and very passionate about living. In the original plan after her finding Hester and having Hester’s soul freed, she’s gonna go and travel the world. She has been living in this little house in the middle of nowhere for good half of her life, having her burned down her past and moving on to a new one is good for her. I had a lot a lot of sketches that is just her traveling, I used this as a chance to expand on this weird magical world she lives in, so many cool places and concept. (Also she started dating people again wohoo) I really wish I didn’t burn myself out after that animatic this story would have been so fun to work on.

SPEAKING OF TRAVELING AS A HEALING MECHANISM☝️I m gonna go on a mad Orange Knife spoiler rant since I don’t think there’s a single soul still reading this thing. In Moondust & Natto plot, Moondust really really wanted to see the world with Natto, she loved the world she loved life, in her eyes the outside world is a struggle but one she would fight for because the sunset is beautiful and the grass is soft and for that the hardship is worth it, she loved the world so so much and she wanted to have Natto experience it too. Freedom was a large part of her soul and being add to OK’s collection permanently took that away. She never got to see it again not even the part of her that got added to worm made it out, her soul is killed long ago and body died with the fire that led to Worm and the remaining crew’s freedom, which honestly I think she would be happy knowing that her death freed Natto in the end. She would be mad knowing the person who killed her is freed too but she would understand if she knows Worm’s situation better. After Natto is free I’d like to think he carries a piece of Moondust with him so in his heart he completed their dream, and they can finally experience the world together.

It’s 2am and nothing is making sense sent post to tumblr.com go

I KINDA FORGOT ABOUT IT TIL THIS ASK, I don't know what I want my next big project to be but this is making me consider picking the leshy amv back up as the next project. It has a bunch of finished animated loops but there's SOOO much work that needs to be done on the actual main drawings.....I have a few other videos that the animatics are like *done* for, they just don't have complete art.

Here's a couple gifs from the other animations I did that have leshy, am unsure if I'll get around to posting em:

the second one is using the audio from the fucking angry birds movie and I think the line is "they stole our children!! Who DOES that, have you ever stolen anyone's children? I mean...you LOOK like you would" LMAO

ALSO FLASHING LIGHTS/EYESTRAIN WARNING FOR THE GIFS BENEATH THE CUT, IT'S THE FEMTANYL AMVS BECAUSE OF COURSE THEY ARE.

Guess who's been reading, "You're new TV headed roomate!"? :D

(Warning! Contains some spoilers!)

So, as a normal person who's favorite SMG4 character is Mr. Puzzles, I've been reading a few Mr. Puzzles x reader fics, and this one is just amazing! The writing for every chapter feels like actual episodes from the show and everyone having different nicknames for Insert is really nice. And, after reading the recent chapter, it's actually given me some inspiration to draw my self-insert interpretation of them. When working on this, I saw @bovinewriter's canon design for Insert and a few other posts of theirs saying it's more of a base design for open interpretation, so I kept the main aspects of the canon design (horns, hairstyle, and jacket) then added my self-insert spin onto it. Also, my original interpretation for the two halves was each one was a different color that mixed together to form the main color Insert wears, but then I thought, "What if the two halves and pre-split Insert each wore one of the secondary colors?", so I went with that instead.

Left

Left is the more serious, albeit, more depressed half.

They are patient and cool-headed, with some exceptions.

During the split, they kept the dark and cool-colored aspects of their original outfit since they're the rational, logical, and more pessimistic half of Insert. They also have pants instead of shorts because it's more professional (in their opinion).

Right

Right is the more impulsive and animated half, so to speak.

They are optimistic and loyal, in their own way, and tend to go with the flow in certain situations.

They kept the lighter/warmer aspects of their original outfit since, despite their choice after the split, their intentions really are wholesome and they want nothing more than to bring out their insane, TV-headed man's good nature. How sweet.

I don't have an exact idea of what my interpretation of Insert before the split would look like, but this is a rough idea I drew up, which (at the time of writing this) looks kind of similar to Opossol's character, Eliza. That was not my intention and I apologize. Go check out their stuff, it's great! Also, go check out their Creative Control animatic on YouTube. It's awesome! The 2D and 3D elements blend beautifully with each other.

Anyways, I just wanted to share this for funsies and also promote bovinewriter's fic. If you're looking for a good Mr. Puzzles x reader fic, I highly recommend this one, especially if you want one that makes you feel like you're in an actual SMG4 episode. Btw, I'm cooking up another Mr. Puzzles related thing rn that I'll, hopefully, be able to finish and release before the end of the year because I really wanna finish it and make it good before my hyperfixation runs dry and it becomes other unfinished project, slowly gathering dust. Y'all have a great day!

The New (and improved) Camille Reference!!!

Cami is a Galapagos Tortoise with albinism, which would put her as being much bigger than Raph buuuut she was a bit of a sickly child and experienced a major lack of nutrients bc of stuff so she’s currently about Mikey height!

Shoutout to @plumsodapop for giving her wonderful insight on this design, you da best (More yaps under the cut)

Spider’s Web Widens Masterpost

Anything I may have said before about Cami could be completely different now… she really went through it��� But EEEEEEEEEEEEEEE on the one hand I didn’t think I’d get this done so fast but on the other I’m having a bunch of ideas and the inability to have unfinished wips so I should’ve expected this. I actually really like how she turned and while I will miss old Cami design (rip forever) and definitely prefer the new one, for now at least.

I’ve never read the idw comics but her look was inspired somewhat by Lita from that. I’d figured out I wanted her color to be pink so I figured I’d incorporate that more in her design.

Also I just scripted the animatic that is gonna introduce her part of the story and OOOOOOH BOY am I excited ^^ I’m a huge fan of Draxum as a parent so you may be able to deduce how that’s gonna start nyehehe and you know feel free to ask me any questions bc as you can see I’m feeling chatty and would love to talk about girly or anything else tbh

Unfinished work of 2023

I think I’m gonna start doing this every year now, opening up the years with WIP that never got finished. I had a lot of ideas that I really loved and either the story changed or I kinda moved on from the piece cause I didn’t know where to go with it. But to be honest I may continue on with some of these in the future!

I didn’t post much last year due to my wedding in January, that and a job that has been sucking me dry ( in the process of looking for a new one), but here a bits and pieces of what was going on in my head during 2023

Top left: the name for this one was “Big Brother Sunday” and pretty much was inspired by Warp taking the boys out one last time before Estrella was born, Percy (the bigger kid) is telling orion (The little kid) how Warp did this for him too right before Orion was born.

Top right: this is actually a scene from a comic I had doodled and most likely this scene is gonna go a little differently. It was to kinda open up and explain how they worked together on the mission in private while still being “enemies” in front of everyone else (other than buzz and commander, they are part of the mission too), it was a sweet moment to kinda show the audience there was feelings going on between them >.>

Middle left: This one was actually supposed to be the cover to my story/ and also another song challenge, the song being Taylor Swift’s “Cruel Summer”.

Middle right: a re draw from a pic I started back in 2020

Bottom left: another Song challenge! This time for the song “Clean” by Taylor Swift. This one was to kinda dive into the topic of Warp’s relationship with his Ex Venus, who was abusive, and the feeling of him finally being able to move on from her, I still may continue on this one, I would love to make a animatic if I ever had the time energy.

Bottom right: Warp with Orion as a baby Lol

[icry-haha]

Im aware I haven't posted for awhile, life's been smacking me down but besides some minor bruising and scaring im fine! So as an apology take this unfinished animatic that's around eight months old (God damn look at that artstyle) !Small Spoilers!

Its @remwrites fic closer to another shore

As soon as I heard the song I imediantly pictured their fic and their adaptation of desert duo. They did an amazing job, Its kinda modernized while 'fake dating your ex'. I highly recommend, its so sweet

And to why I never finished this, back then I still wasn't all that good with anatomy. I also couldn't draw Scar. One day I really wanna come back to this and finish, everytime I listen to this song I picture it

[loveaurapearl]

Was watching Tippy Cap's (@tibbycaps) amazing Animatic, link: Willard! [Masked Chimes AU Animatic (Unfinished)] and an idea came into my head. You know how Scar has become teammates with Jimmy in Wild life. What if we have an animatic with Scar singing this song to Jimmy with Jimmy replacing Willard in the song, ya'know since Jimmy is the Canary in the cage? Scar has always had a hard time connecting to people meaningfully. Last life was a great example of how Scar can do the social game to get things... but true, true alliances and friendships are things that he always has trouble with. And with Wild life being about being connected with Animals and Scar winning Secret life and gaining knowledge and maybe Watcher powers, it could work. Also, in Cannon Scar has been stuck in Secret Life this whole time, so yeah. While Jimmy feels like he's always behind bars, Scar's the one who would feel like he's in the real cage. I don't know. I just wanted to throw this out. I want to have more people listen to the song and connect it to Scar. Especially since the song uses a lot of Disney quotes which is Scar's brand. The Link to the original song since Tippy's animatic is incomplete: Willard

Also, I might have mixed the movie Willard for the movie Flowers for Algernon when writing my analysis of Scar, but neither here nor there since I have only heard of the movie Willard like... five minutes ago.

English:

So for the last couple of months I´ve been working on an Excel Presentation which objective is organize "all" of the "EPIC: The Musical" Full Fan-Animatics (that meet a certain criteria, which I´ll comment later).

It´s currently unfinished but I really wanted to share it and it would be helpfull if y´all tell me if everything is working properly, or if you have any form of feed-back about it. Also if you have a full animatic that I haven´t found and added yet send it to me so I can do that.

Español:

Así que durante los últimos meses he estado trabajando en una presentación de Excel cuyo objetivo es organizar "todos" los Fan-Animatics Completos de "EPIC: The Musical" (que cumplan con ciertos criterios que comentaré más adelante).

Actualmente no está terminado, pero realmente quería compartirlo y me sería muy útil si me dijeran si todo funciona correctamente o si tienen cualquier tipo de recomendación. Además, si conocen / tienen algún animatic completo que aún no he encontrado ni agregado, envíenmelo para que lo haga.

English

So my criteria of what animatics were added here was;

1) The animatic must be about EPIC, not about any other fandom. (This one is obligatory)

2) The animatic must be using a released version of the song, so animatics using snippets aren’t here.

3) The animatic must be of the full song, there is room for a couple of seconds missing, like 10 or something depending on the song.

Also, you might notice how the songs are indicated by either green, yellow or red(ish), each color have a meaning.

• Green: It follows all of the criteria previously mentioned.

• Yellow: It doesn’t follow one or two points of the criteria, the specifics would be:

- Because it’s using a non-oficial or non-released version of the song.

- Because it’s missing about 20 to 40 seconds (this variates from song to song).

- Because it’s (stated to be) un-finished.

- Because it’s set on a non-canon moment of the lore or is putting the song on an incorrect moment of the history.

• Red-ish: This one just shouldn’t be there but I putted there either way because I felt like it, they shouldn’t be there because:

- Any of the reasons in the criteria and in yellow, with atleast two at the same time.

- I wasn’t able to find the animatic or creator.

- It straight up doesn’t exist anymore.

Español:

Entonces, mi criterio sobre qué animatics entraban o no a la presentación es la siguiente:

1) El animatic debe ser de EPIC, es decir, no es de ningún otro fandom diferente. (Este es el único obligatorio)

2) El animatic debe usar una versión publicada de forma oficial, es decir, no se incluirán animatics que usan snippets.

3) El animatic debe ser la canción completa, hay un cierto margen de como 10 segundos dependiendo de la canción.

De seguro notarán que las celdas que indican los animatics vienen en verde, amarillo o rojo (o similar), cada color tiene su significado.

• Verde: Cumple adecuadamente con todos los puntos del criterio.

• Amarillo: No cumple con uno o dos de Los puntos del criterio, de forma más específica sería;

- Porque está usando una versión no oficial y/o no terminada de la canción.

- Porque le faltan de 20 a 40 segundos de la canción (este número varía de canción a canción).

- Porque (se indicó que) está incompleto.

- Porque está situado fuera del canon de EPIC o en un momento cronológicamente incorrecto.

• Rojo: Estos animatics genuinamente no deberían de haber sido incluidos pero los agregué de todos modos, estos no deberían de estar aquí por:

- Cualquiera de las razones de la criteria o el punto “amarillo”, con por lo menos dos de estás a la vez.

- No fui capaz de encontrar el animatic o al creador.

- De plano, el animatic ya no existe.

(Blood warning?) Unfinished WIP of an animatic i was going to do for Print, I doubt i'll finish it since i keep getting distracted with other animatic ideas but YEYAYA its rly good, also one of the first full animatics i tried. Extras & Context: Print is a "defect" as i'll call them. in my version of the lore defective partygoers (where something went wrong or didnt fully develop during the transformation process) are actually quite common. The only reason they aren't seen *at all* is because non-defective partygoers will recognize a defect by their facial expressions, and tear them apart.

Print got lucky in the way that the one who infected him (the white partygoer in this post, forced him to smile. (so they wouldn't have a chance of the other partygoers mistaking them as a defect and tearing them up as well)

When print was alive he was rather cowardly, so at the section where it shows Print's human self and his Partygoer self, its showing how he changed. Someone who would originally run from danger, leaving others behind. To going and saving the person he cares about (cyrus btw.) The paper he's holding in the one scene is a missing poster of his human self, this is the backrooms so even if no one would have looked for him when he was human. He might come across one.

(Print kept the items he found near him when he woke up as a partygoer) In the two frames before the run cycle it shows Print, and Cyrus. This is a scene that happens far far later in their relationship when during a fight between the two, cyrus is impaled by a smiler who snuck up on him while he dodged prints attacks. The knife is a weapon print found after he somewhat redeemed himself (Showing more human traits than partygoer.) Print is a very conflicted character if that wasn't obvious already lmao, partially why hes one of my favourites. The next scene after was supposed to be Print (partygoer) running while holding Cyrus (impaled). but man... that first run cycle killed me

HENLO! currently very bored and sick in bed rn, so i thought i'd give everyone an update on the past semester i had at animation school as Proof of Life, since i've been so inactive on main lately hehe!

Spent this entire past semester working on Building A Guy, through four different assignments - design, modelling, texturing/surfacing, and rigging! Super excited to animate him next term!

Got re-elected to Student Council for the 2nd year in a row - i like to think i'm very good at it! :D

Entered a local game jam with some friends, wrote a (still unfinished, still buggy) visual novel, with the rest of my team on art and RenPy code dev, and we won a prize about it! Crazy for a first game!

Went to art galleries and saw selections of Silly Little Guys

Worked at ComicCon at our school's promotional booth! Spent basically a week rushing with friends between class, the con, the occasional evening student council event, home to sleep a few hours, before doing it all over the next day 😵‍💫 loved it though, an artist i hung out with at the con printed Doom Patrol stickers JUST for me since they weren't sure there'd be an audience 🥺 Met interesting folks there, also chased at least one rude karen-type out of our booth

Got really into co-op TTRPGs - my friends and i have board game nights sometimes, and our fave at the moment is a narrative survival Space Horror game called Nemesis! I'm also a Betrayal at the House on the Hill enjoyer, i'm basic <3

Currently lead writer/production designer in an animatic production team for our storyboard class - I can't reveal details publically in case the pitch makes its way into Graduation Film team selection for next year (in which case it'll be watchable one day! By you! But until then we'll sign NDAs for understandable reasons), but YOOOOO i'm hyped!!!! Excited to hopefully spill the beans one day 👀✨️

Ended the term with a bang before passing out with a cold RIGHT at the start of winter break (our winter is in June). Stuck in bed but catching up on media - i finished reading Legends & Lattes (very cute, very gay), watched Team Starkid's "Nerdy Prudes Must Die!" at a friend's recommendation, and borrowed another friend's copy of "The Hand, The Eye & The Heart", a transmasc Mulan retelling in a fantasy setting!

I think that's mostly everything new! Hope to draw for fun again while I'm still on break, and hopefully get around to posting some animations of my silly little guy!!!
