Due to how much is left of Spaghetti Wars I'm not 100% certain the short will come out on the 30th. Worst case scenario the short gets delayed to next week and I will instead upload a Halloween Comedy Skit meant for September early on YouTube. Since it's mainly live action the short may not be posted on Newgrounds but I will post art from it with a link in it's description so you can find it when it does come out. That might be how I connect my live action stuff on Newgrounds without completely uploading it.

Holy FRICK! Why did I never discover Krita before until today?! For those who don't know Krita is a free frame by frame animation/illustration software available for download. I haven't used it yet but I plan to tomorrow with some small test animations. So this will technically be my first time actually animating. For a bit of context; I made BuNNy by creating each image in GIMP and placed them in a video editing software called Magix Movie Edit Pro which I have used since 2011. Hence why I was able to make "animation" on it. I know Magix off of the back of my hand at this point and I'm still learning new things.

As for "Spaghetti Wars" that is being made a similar way to BuNNy so it may lack a good amount of mouth movement. That's not to say it will be exactly like BuNNy. Each character will be in different poses, positions and camera angles (which is why it's taking so long to complete). But it should still be done by the 30th! At least I hope so. Wish me luck!

I honestly regret not discovering Newgrounds as a kid. I was on the internet all the time around 2008 when YouTube was just starting to get big. I completely missed out on over a decade of being a part of this community. Well, it's not too late to start (unless the world randomly explodes within the next 28 seconds then maybe it would be)

I intend to become a lot more active on this site by not only posting art but also start uploading animations and live-action/animated hybrids, like BuNNy, more often. Don't get me wrong I'll still do what I do on YouTube as I do intend to make a comeback on that site on the 5th but I also want to make NG a big part of my life.

Newgrounds is such an important part of the creative community on the internet that gets severely overshadowed thanks to sites like YouTube and it would be a shame to see it go away.

Now to announce a few things...

1. On August 30th I'm uploading an animated live action hybrid called "Spaghetti Wars" on both YouTube and Newgrounds
2. During the Halloween season I also would like to create a short called "Schizo-Freak" which is also a live action animated hybrid. But as a NewGrounds exclusive considering it's subject matter might be a bit too touchy for YouTube. But YouTube will get some of it's own completely live-action content though.
3. A new (possible) series. By the end of the year I would like to get started on a fully animated project called "Bad Idea Cat" that may become a series if it gets the right amount of traction.

I hope to build a good relationship with this community and to open more opportunities to grow in the future. Thanks for reading and I'll see you around!
