Progress Check 5/5 I’m gonna be honest, I have nothing. I didn’t work on it all week. I didn’t have lots of free time. Idk if i’ll even make it in time for the NG Spooktacular within the next 2 weeks. I wanted to release the animation on the 15th, the day I started on the animation last year.

Progress Check: Week 4/5 So, like I was sick for half the week, so I didn’t get much done, but I felt better after Thursday and got some progress done.

I was on and off with it. Especially during the summer when I felt bummed that it didn’t make the cut for SSF. The only reason I did these checks anyway was cuz I had nobody else to talk about this with really, so might as well show the world what i’ve been working on (and to keep myself in check)

This animation has been something i’ve been passionate about finishing. Sometimes I feel like im talking into an empty void posting these each week, but it’s comforting. So, anyone who’s been reading these (or just skimming), thank you for the support whether I get this done on time or not🐝🐝🐝

Progress Check: Week 3/5 It’s going good. Got a lot of progress done over last weekend and a bit this weekend. My hands are very tired, so this’ll be a shorter check in.

Now next week is the last week I gave myself to finish this up and im gonna be honest.. I don’t think i’ll finish it by next week. Even after I get all the animation done, I still got a ton of sound effects to add. I’ll still make the last progress check, but after that im locking in

Progress Check: Week 2/5 (I meant to give myself 5 weeks not 4) Y’know I think it makes more sense to do these at the end of the week rather than a Thursday But also, I’ve been locking in with the animation since yesterday (bless the office room), but I’ve been locking in the wrong places…

Progress Check: Week 1/4 I’d say about 70% in. I have the beginning and ending bits done, but now I need to fill up the middle with more animation. In the meantime, I wanted to experiment a little, so I put a little texture throughout the animation to make it a little more stylish and cool πŸ›

This is the middle of the animation and the middle part is a mess of ideas cuz I don’t have that section done and I go with the flow with all of my animations. No script. How do I make it feel grand and cool? What can I put without making it convoluted? I hate you, Greg. You know who you are, Greg πŸ‘οΈ

No wait… I figured it out.. I FIGURED IT OUT!!! Gonna whip up the animation right now. Funny how it was over a toasted stawberry jam with butter and a glass of milk πŸ›πŸ›πŸ›πŸ›πŸ›

You see, I want to extend the chase scene. Right now, it stands at roughly 1 minute long. Now I know that sounds like a good amount, but I want it to be more tense, more scary for halloween, but I don’t know how to go about extending the chase scene without making it feel dragged out.

Well. Since I’m talking about it a lot, how about I start documenting some actual progress to show the work i’ve been gettin done. Mainly cuz I wanna get it done in mmm.. let’s say 4 weeks. So, starting today, there’ll be weekly progress checks. Isn’t that fun? πŸ› There’ll be brief tho; startin with-

I’ve discussed this with some people before, but I don’t remember discussing it here, but as im getting closer to finishing up the marshmallow animation, I’ve been thinking of retconning the original one from 2024 mainly cuz I made that in just like 3 weeks lol.

One more thing I wanna clear up. Despite Mella’s last name being β€œS’mora” she’s not actually a S’more. She’s just a marshmallow. I thought it’d be a fun thing like how Squidward isn’t a squid n other such examples; if however she was a s’more, this is what she’d look like◻️

If I were to retcon the og one (and more serious about doing these marshmallow animations), I’d do what I have never done before and remake the entire thing and let it become an actual depth story between Mella and Marsha and how they came to be

ICYMI: Construction crew rescues kitten on site, gives him a job. Barberton, Ohio. According to the workers at River Reach Construction, the crew heard a tiny mewing coming from an excavator. When they opened it up, a tiny kitten came rolling out. Welcome aboard!

Yknow sometimes I think about and stop to realize that I’ve been drawing her for over half a decade and im like β€œdamn… no matter how much time flies, im still drawing this boring ass character that’s just a representation of the beginning” and then I smile at how far I’ve come πŸ›

Short Short Fest was very awesome! Got to reunite with some pals from past NG meetups and met a few new people and got to draw on a lot on tables and got to address the gooble allegations. I passed the fuck out cuz I came back home at 1AM lmao. Cant wait to put these stickers on my sketchbook! πŸ›πŸ›πŸ›
