Update Blog - 10/21/23 (Patreon)

I'll confess that last weekend was very stressful to me. Last time, I mentioned how I was having some technical problems with my computer. They ended up so bad that it became broken on the inside and I had to send it for repairs. Luckily, I was able to get it back and made sure that everything was working again. So, the good news is that everything's fine again and I'm able to get back to work (so this must be what having a car accident feels like). Other than that, here's what I've done once my computer returned.

- Released my tier list of the Looney Tunes by who would say F***: Ever since I started these kinds of videos with The Muppets, I've collected plenty of ideas of which groups of characters that I could use with this format, all of which makes me excited to eventually try out. However, one that I know would be a perfect fit that I have to do with this type of tier list is with the Looney Tunes. That feels like the kind where there are a few that are quite obvious, but then there are others that require some thinking. What I was surprised the most is that there are not as much who would swear in the Looney Tunes world than I thought. I think I filled the top row more with the Muppets than I did with here. They may be crazy, but maybe not crazy with swear words. Either way, this was a lot of fun to make and I can't wait to make the next one.

- Created a couple of Art Commissions: After I got my computer was fixed, I actually didn't do much in terms of making more videos. I was lucky to have finished the next ACR review before crap really hit the fan with the tech problems, but the most I did this week video-wise was a couple of TikTok/Shorts videos about Once Upon a Studio. The big project of the week I did, however, was making a couple of art commissions for some patrons. The first is a poster for a fan's musical called Unique, which is about a neurodivergent boy with a passion for poetry. He asked for a stylistic approach as if this would be for an animated adaptation with a style similar to Spider-Verse or Mutant Mayhem, so I thought up of something a little abstract with some inspiration from Inside Out and Soul. The second was to draw the famous shot of Jack's Lament from The Nightmare Before Christmas. However, instead of copying the scene, but in my style, I decided to give myself an extra challenge and do it from a top-view angle. There is one more drawing that I did not as a commission, but to commemorate a special 10th anniversary that I will only reveal once we're close to Halloween, but I won't immediately reveal what it is just yet. Anyways, I hope you enjoy the commissions I've done and if you'd like me to make art for you, then upgrade to the Supervising Animator tier and learn more!

- Planning a Charity Stream: In case you haven't seen the announcement on YouTube, I'm teaming up with Gamers Outreach again for another Charity Stream where I'll be playing games. However, instead of going insane trying to beat the first levels of Cuphead, I made a poll asking people what would they like to see me play, and over half the votes were for one of the latest big games, Super Mario Bros. Wonder. Despite the numerous of deaths from Cuphead, the last stream was a big hit and we raised over $1000. I'm hoping we will pull that off again and I'll consider it a win if we can surpass $1000 again in the name of charity. I got the game and my streaming PC ready, so join me on my Twitch channel on Thursday the 26th at 8pm EST and let's have some fun with this event!

And that's what's been going on this week. I know that it is quite an unusual one for me, but it was still one that I was able to get a bunch of some stuff done. I think it's safe to say that this was more of an artist week for me, but I can assure you that I'll be getting back into making videos very soon. Either way, I'm just glad to have my computer back. So, until next time...

See ya later, dudes!
