Something tells me people like the new trailer. The crew worked hard on this and the reaction's heartwarming. All I can promise in the future is more transparency from us. Let's make this year the best and enjoy what's to come for

This aesthetic is still so fresh and clean decades later. Alex Kirwan's a total prodigy with his confident shape language. Undoubtedly my favorite designer of all time in animation.
It's been a few years so it's a valid question. Demo's being worked on which I suppose depends on. Not sure when considering the first town was modified by the director again lol. Hang on to the wild ride in the meantime.
Not exactly artwork but still worth posting. Here's some crude trials on some promotional material that won't at all resemble this. Between work on the demo, website, and new engine, it's been hard to find time to flesh the style out. Background ain't mine.
Thanks for staying with me for that politically correct stream last night. It was so awful so I'm taking a break next week and will return the following Monday. Anyway, here are some cool gems I showcased. Some old, new and subject to change (1/2)

Thanks for checking out the first stream! Glad you kept me company. Enjoy this very mid Five cigar Leo for you as the highlight. Catch you next Monday.
Ciro had the privilege of producing this in Japan with veteran staff from Ghibli. Probably the best example of Western and eastern philosophies harmonizing years before the pseudo animes from Burbank we see today.
As I draw more for the new website I look back at old

assets that haven't found a home. So from my nostalgia to your confusion. Wrap your head around these.
The workshop session I had with Studio MDHR animator
@NawrockiTina
, was SUPER motivational. I'll take your leadership compliment to heart.

Old Infrastructures from what is now known as Bellway. These are far from useful at this point. Perspective was also funky, but a lot of people had their hands in these and did what they could. Fun to look back on.

Free throwback. Sorting through my stuff while finding gift wrap I came across my original sketch of promotional holiday artwork from a few years ago. Started with a few layers of scrap paper and a lightbox. Definitely didn't figure out the style back then.

Also, to those wondering - Yes, we're still working! We're not making a fan game anymore, so until we relaunch we're avoiding using our current social media channels. It's a bit messy, but we hope you understand.
Today is about our friends, though - Give em your support!
Check out this Nintendo Gigaleak looking ass town. About to draw all over it as my biggest illustration to Oddity yet. I hate perspective, so hopefully this reference is enough guidance....

Highlights from the Hellopaint session last night. Amazed by the turnout after such a long hiatus. You're awesome for watching and drawing!
@Gaftik02
@TheJPooka777
@God0fTacos
@/diorse and @/pathulu and the many others! See you next week.
Thank you and everyone for the heartfelt words. Teasing is a terrible thing to do at this point, and I don't think any of us would want that - So I'll assure whatever happens would be in a very small, casual scope.
@McMaxxis
genuinely please do dev streams, even if they’re something small like sprite art. showing any progress on the game would truly mean a lot to everyone, especially because we haven’t gotten anything for so long.
even teasing the website would be appreciated above anything else
Got more DMs from amazingly talented artists than I ever did these hoes thanks for reaching out! I'll look at everyone's stuff and keep you in mind for later works, if not this one.
Mother Direct 2023 is out now!!
Watch it at !

artist Wahol, all profits will be donated to Child's Play Charity!
It will always bring back the fondest of memories!
For me, it's his design in the brief Ego Trip era before its revival. A solid harmony between Craig, Paul, and Genndy's design philosophies where the graphic language is brushed up, but not yet abstracted into the UPA driven blockiness notorious in the 2000s.
To all the weirdos wondering about last week's news concerning this week; Join us for a Holiday stream on 12/9/23 starting at 2PM EST where I'll "gift" you some surprises! See you then.
Oh yes, October is coming. I should probably get back to drawing
#Cartoonnetwork
stuff instead of talking about it. Here's a WIP of a collab, stay "tooned"
Mighty B went hard with its discernible poses and zaniness while staying in the constraints of TV animation and nobody knows because we were filtered by that booger scene.
We're back. Thanks for waiting! Tonight at 8 Come draw with me and ask weird questions with while on twitch. Posting early for participants to set up accounts. Hello paint Room info and link will come as the stream approaches.
People call me insane as I've been loving this heat wave..... But it seemed to have caught up with me as my idle laptop may have overheated. If I don't stream later, it'll be sometime this week. Me figuring out the situation:
Man, Ko Takeuchi's style slaps. I don't get what that one meme post was on about. In a sea of modern hybrid styles between the east and west design philosophies, this man mastered it.
Here's something my friends and I have been working on for around ten years. Follow Travis Fields' crazy adventures in ODDITY, coming when it's done! Check out the full trailer here:…
It just hit me that the indie scene has really set the bar high in recent years, at least from a graphical POV. No more pseudo 8 bit stuff. Just good sprites. That's assurance 2D and pixel art will never die. LETS KEEP IT UP.
I was ready to haunt in my new wizard hat, but it seems the stream haunted me! Going to restart and check on my PC, so this week we'll probably attempt a twitter spaces as a substitute. You'll see next post.
'REGULAR SHOW' audience demand is 18.7 times higher than the demand of an average TV series in the US in the last 30 days.
Would you watch a revival of the show!?
