Yo. So my animation may take a bit longer than expected, I've been having a bit of trouble with the graphics (probably due to the fact that I'm completely changing my drawing style.) But the Preloader is almost complete, and about half of the graphics are drawn. So, by my estimates, scene one should be completed by 2010. (BTW, here is a link to some concept art for one of my characters. the final version looks a lot different, but I thought it'd be cool to post the drawing anyway.)
On teh entertainment front, I've been watching a LOT of Blockhead animations (can't believe 11 was frontpaged so long...) Also, my brother recently showed me this staggeringly awesome ad for the "Black Mesa Source" remake of Half-Life 1. And, I've been thinking of buying Fallout 3, mostly because it has two things I love: graphics based on 1950s cartoons, and evil clowns.
And, on an unrelated note, I'm bummed that The Dark Knight wasn't nominated for best picture. :(
Also, speaking of awards, I just saw the banner for the Tank Awards (too bad I wasn't nominated for anything...)
Hope "Little Jerry and the Closet" wins!
Until next time...
