But to artificially create that, whether through CG or A//I? Booooooo.
This is where I have to exercise my negotiation skills. Cuz he’s going for funding, big funding, and I want him to be true to this art, god dammit.
Who’s gonna model that in CG? Who’s gonna take a pass at a fingerprint look treatment? If you say A//I, I will spit on you. The very thing that makes stop motion so beautiful are the traces of actual humanity in it. Finger prints. Shifting hair and fur. Stuttering poses. How imperfect it is.
I’m a firm believer in stories being able to inform the type of animation you do, much like how if you’re gonna make an animated show, you make it ANIMATED.
And what this guy is pitching is great, it’ll be beautiful in stop motion. REAL stop motion. He said he loves seeing finger prints in clay.
Someone asked me to board a few scenes for their CG-to-look-stop motion short and part of me caught on fire. They were talking about how they want there to be truth in materials and I’m like “Bro, let’s just do it in actual stop-mo. Please bro, you gotta.”
Buhhhh I can’t stop staring at this! Like I can really feel the weight in Twi’s hips and the way he’s trying to pull her up and aaahhhhhhh
Hello I exist solely to remind you to get giant buttons of your pfp made for Lightbox (if you can) so I can recognize you.
HEHEHEHHEHEEEEE I absolutely DARE you to try to play Hollow Knight.
“It’s just a tool! People used to hate on photoshop too.”
Take away my photoshop, take away my tablets, I can still draw. Take away your plagiarism machine and what are you gonna do? Shout prompts at me?
Found this on TikTok and it made me emotional ❤️
Artists create universes from nothing.
Being an animator is an intimate understanding of life, environments, physics, what it MEANS to be alive, and the ability to convey the beauty within our world in seconds.
Star Wars is one of those bucket list franchises for me, and I’m so happy that @moxieiii.bsky.social asked me to participate in her take on it!!
Y’all… this gigantic tote bag is a quarter of my whole display.

I’ve got a collection stainless steel drink tumblers coming with me to #AnimeExpo, but this one is gonna be an AX/Chibi exclusive!
Drink something Delicious in the Dungeon and make sure you’ve got the energy to find the red dragon!
WHO IS GONNA HAVE GIVEN MERCH AT AX I STG I WILL BUY IT ALL
If anyone has a show or manga similar… plz. Feed me.
Anyways, the long awaited SK8 the Infinity OVA is out (since April), and I narrowly managed to catch the last [given] movie premiering in theaters and I am completely re-obsessed and cried a little in my car listening to the music.
What I miss about peak Twutter was when my feed would tell me what anime to watch or game to play because it would be FLOODED with people screaming and fanart. It helped me feel connected to people and spaces that I have difficulty accessing irl.
I have Etsy! I’d say it’s middle passive once you’re all set up. I don’t have the time to advertise on social media consistently so I like that it’s a marketplace. The fees can be pretty high for sure, but I like that Etsy collects and remits sales tax on my behalf, which is worth the fees (imo).
And part 2 cuz that’s just how much stuff I made!
Wish me luck on the tumblers and the ridiculously XXL tote bag; those I press by hand but I’m also the most excited for those!
And the Witch Hat sticker sheet, that makes me giggle.
IT’S MY #ANIMEEXPO2025 CATALOG AHHHHHH.
I’m a lucky little lamb to have gotten off the waitlist and was able to get a butt ton of stuff made with just a 3 month heads up and two other huge events before AX.
btw if you're so petrified of doing a bad job that you can't even start, then what you need isn't advice on how to make comics. you need to learn to embrace being messy and bad at things and being okay with that because it's necessary, and actually it's GOOD. being messy is WONDERFUL
I'm still suckling on the dopamine I got from a conversation I had on Thursday where I used the word "bifurcate" without even having to think about it or rehearse it and it's like, the smartest I've felt this decade.

Yooooo look! Listen!
Y’all don’t know how cool this is gonna be!!
Fun fact: if you're buying from a creator on etsy, you can reduce their etsy selling fees from 6.5% to 2.5% by ordering via 'shopname.etsy.com' instead of 'etsy.com/shopname' or searching from the main site. It costs you the same but the creator makes more
Yooooo the way you did that treeline is so fun! I’ve never seen that 👀
