New Design


New design... will be up on design by humans soon. Also, pvt, yeah I thought the same thing when I was making my first design, but then i say, hey... maybe this will help me atleast get my name out there. Also, the money i could win can help go into making my own online shop and stuff, so its not too bad. I can always come up with like 1000 designs haha

This year, along with continuing my career in animation, I am starting to dive into the art of design. Once a week, I am hoping to create a t-shirt design to enter into contest. So far I have only come up with one design, but I feel i can muster up about 30 or so designs by the end of the year. If you can, vote for my t-shirt at www.designbyhumans.com to help me get it into print. I will hopefully be throwing a contest this week and giving away t-shirts depending how things go. Well... peace

Wizard Kin Coming Soon, and Rx what?


So I am diligently working to finish Wizard Kin which will come out to a good 5 minutes. I am working with Lefthandedsock who conceived the story and concept for the cartoon (he also wrote the story). What this will end up being is a pilot that will hopefully be shown to different networks and even online places. If we don't get anyone to bite, than it already has a place right here on newgrounds.

Luis will be doing the backgrounds, so (as you can below), that is why u are only seeing a rough draft of the background. Right now, we are in the process of getting all the line animation done, which should take about 4 more weeks.... I know guys I know hahah. Lefthandedsock, will be working on the lip sync, expressions and color for the animation. I of course am doing all the main animation, and im making it all as smooth as possible

Anyways, the pilot will be here soon and I hope u guys enjoy it when it comes out. You may remember that I have been working on wizard kin ever since i finished Collin and the Wishing Tree. I actually managed to finish 2 minutes of the animation before I went back to the drawing board because those two minutes actually were done on mainly a mouse. It didn't look as natural as it could have, but now that I have a tablet its looking like tv.. or atleast really awesome quality.

So hopefully school work wont hinder my workflow. I know I have like atleast 3 animated projects that i have to do, but i don't plan on releasing those. Those will be just practice animations, like cycles and etc. Nothing special. It'll be in my demo at the end of the year though, so that should be pretty cool... my first demo

So now, if u read this far, you are probably wondering what Rx is about. Well, I started writing a script that will hopefully be turned into a graphic novel. I can't say much about it, but the story is coming out surprisingly well. I'm actually mad that i didn't come up with it earlier. But anyways, I am hoping to make the format something like epileptic... layout wise. Well thats all the news i have thus far.... peace

Interview

So, I scored a sweet interview with 1st Angel, and I had alot of fun with it. I think I have like maybe 3 grammar mistakes on my part, but it's all good. The picture I put up there for the interview makes my nostrils look like massive black holes hahah. Anyways, if you want to read it, here is the link:

Starting a shop

So I am thinking about starting a website store where you will be able to purchase art prints, t-shirts and jackets. The twist here is that you can either buy original prints, graphic novels (wont start this until summer cause I'm trying to form stories at the moment), and clothing, or you can request what you want in a design for a fee (which will only be 5-10 dollars). Then you will be able to buy the t-shirt or print under the limited edition area. So all you have to do is ask for a design you think you will wear, I make it, and you buy it. Simple as that.

The store will sort of be like Kidrobot. Hopefully I can get someone to help me set up a website. I wouldn't mind paying as long as its not to much, but yeah! If it is to much ill just find a way to do it myself.

Once people start purchasing the tees, they can take pictures of themselves and become there own models of the t shirt, or them holding the prints. I think that would be pretty cool

If anyone is interested in helping me make the website, that would be cool. I totally will make as much artwork or whatever you need. I probably wont purchase the website domain until the site is totally done, and that could take a month or 2.

Thanks for reading

Probably gonna sell from home

So because of how high the price on the internet is due to the companies taking so much out of the total price, I have decided to go ahead and print them myself. That way atleast it will cost you guys much less. It will be new for me to manage my own store at home, but I will find a way to get it done. I plan on opening a shop so you guys will be able to place your orders. Since I have to print them myself, They will only come in large size I think. If you want massive or any other size it will cost extra. Im gonna go ahead and list how I'm planning on making this work.

Either I'll have you guys send me your info and stuff so i can mail it to your straight from this website or make a shop.

Then once I think I have enough orders, I'll go and print them out, sign them, and send them to you guys. This will take longer than online, but I think itll be worth it. If you rather just have em sent from online, there will still be that option. However, the people that order straight from me will be way less than online from what I have gathered. You will still have to pay extra for the shipping charge for me to send it however. The post office is right down the street from where I live so I can just mail it to you. If you want overnight, let me know. that will probably cost extra.

So basically I will show you my gallery and you can chose which one you want. Then send over your info, the title of the piece and etc. Then I will try to get it to you

Does this sound like it works? I think the total for a large will come out to about 25 to 28 dollars after you add the fact that I have to print it. It'll come out to you u saving a few bucks no matter what size

I still think Imagekind is great now that I understand how the mark up works. Because it doubles the prize of how much the paper cost in order to give me 50 percent of the profit, it adds way more than it should to the price.

But yeah, they are still available online with more to come, but I'll be printing my own out soon. So I closed the deviant art one because of how ridiculously low I would get paid (A DOLLAR REALLY?) I can't even promote to other sites on deviant so I don't really know why I made that account, perhaps I can sway people to see the other site to save money or just buy it straight from me. Hopefully I clarified some stuff. Piece


I have been creating new prints for people to buy, and so far I have only got one purchase, excluding mine. I can't wait for the prints to come in the mail so I can hang them on the wall. Anyways, if you haven't check them out yet, please visit the website below:
