We've also put up a kickstarter for help to support us with Post-Production (music, voices, sound mix). Any support would be greatly appreciated. Hope you all enjoy!
I made a fan intro for Anime Crimes Division ‘the anime’ by
@rocketjumptweet
! Was so much fun animating
@prozdkp
! I originally was only gonna animate 15 seconds but once I finished those 15 secs, I just had to do the entire intro! 🙃
Used all my life savings to survive 2yrs while I animate 14-18hrs/day, 7days/wk, for the duration of production. Also paid out of pocket thus far spending 35k. Not accounting for my time, budget of this film is 35k. No savings left & need help finishing!

Every single shot of my solo animated feature so far! All 1hr49min (Needs cuttin). Anything from that impossible goal, I want to spend it going back & improving shots... and also buy a switch & tears of the kingdom. (OST Babylon, my previous solo feature).
Not only did we focus on having a hand drawn face but we also focused on shape. In 3D, shapes are often too perfect but pushing the shape on angles helps our director with his intended design from each angle.

The very first shot I worked on for this feature! Remember not being 100% sure if the style was going to work out but like many things, just gotta go along with it. Could have spent months playing with style and the look of the animation.
