From what I'm seeing here, it looks like you're trying out some new styles with your animations? I could be wrong but I can't wait to see it :D

Yeah, it's detailed in the big ol' post up there. Should be out by the end of the month!

I remember 40k being at a 3.99 for a few days, I fixed that lol. School sucks but hey when its all said and done you get to do what you want. :P Lookin forward to new toons man.

Thanks, shouldn't be too long now!

look cool

THANKS

YAY! You're alive! Christmas special... FTW!

Took a while, didn't it? Good to be back.

u knwo what i noticed? whenever i make something of quality , you decide to be credited , because u voice act in all my things and may pick and choose your quality as u please. I FEEL SO ALONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHYYYYYYYYYYY

BEEEJAAAY
You stole 12 cents from me by voice acting in SRM Transformers 4!

and you stole .001 cents form me voice acting in march of the giraffeys

I actually didn't. A flat zero there, my friend.

Maybe I'm in the minority here, but I'll miss the old animation style a bit. Also, just checking out the new profile pic you have there. I smell a tablet behind that. And just because I can, do you remember that one idea I PM'd you about? Might be a good final project, might just fade into obscurity, but either way, can't wait to see what the tablet can produce. PS-It's COLD OUTSIDE!

I detailed in my last blog post about getting the tablet, so you're right on that! I would never try something like this if I didn't have a tablet. Mousedrawing an entire cartoon frame by frame would be a ludicrous undertaking. I'm really hoping that once everyone sees the new Flash in motion they'll enjoy it though! I'd hate to go through all that work for something that nobody enjoys. While it was nice having that level of detail (and having it be that easy to animate) I REALLY want to branch out and advance in the animation world. Just imagine watching something like Egoraptor's work - it would lose all it's energy if everything was a flat, static, 2 dimensional image. Drawing it again gives it a lot of life that has always been sorely lacking in my work.

Anyway, I'm just ranting for my own sake now. Look for the new cartoon soon!

I sense anger within you. Lets get all that tension out of the way. Inhale, Exhale, Inhale, Exhale...Ah, who am I kidding. And just to clarify, I wasn't complaining about you using a tablet, it's just I got used to your old style. The frame for the holiday special looks A-Ma-Zing!
Anyho, just wanted to clear the air...OH! Idea! A Big Lebowski themed SRM cartoon for the future. Just a thought.

There's no anger or anything in my post - don't worry about it. As for a Lebowski toon? Maybe. Glad you like the look of the new toon!

Oh, well done Battosai! I am liking that new style, Mel's grumpy face compared to SRM's happy - festive season smile is hilarious.

I can only imagine what will happen. BTW, you are using the brush/pen tool, rather than the line tool, which as you know, I dislike! Line tool makes it look so plain. I'm glad you've developed this new style of yours.

It reminds me of Catoblepas' style for some reason, he's a great animator on Newgrounds, despite what actually HAPPENS in his flash movies.

Good luck!

I'm familiar with his work, and while I'm nowhere NEAR as good at frame by frame as he is, I definitely appreciate the comparison :)

I'm working in the brush tool exclusively for my artwork this time around, and it's really liberating considering how static the line tool made my work.

Thanks!

Good... what's not nice is that SRM's quality drops to his 2006 version again.

It's not as detailed, but it's going to be a LOT more lively. Wait til you see it in motion!

BTW, with W40k: Dawn of Awesome 2, I wouldn't be surprised if it failed to meet what you had expected, it's a spammy flash (on purpose, I know) but maybe some people thought that it wasn't meant to be like that.

Surprising since people liked Dawn of Awesome 1 just fine and it has a way too high score for how hilariously bad it is. Lightning doesn't strike twice I guess!

Oh yeah you said you'd change the style once you got your tablet, looks good can't wait, btw looks like actuall Christmas, not Quankamas. Maybe I'm wrong. I donno, anyways I'm excited.
