A little redraw of Charlie!💗😈

It still seems surreal to finally be able to watch HazbinHotel after these years!

Umm... I also put a link to Twitter here. I sometimes post some wips or sketches :3

It's midnight so I'm gonna ramble again but about animation/cartoons as a whole included with my lack of knowledge about the industry

A few weeks ago, I remember watching some video about Cartoon Network or something and the guy doing the essay mentioned something like "With the rise of streaming and online as a whole, there is a loss of connection with parents and their kids because back then, you could watch the same cartoon with your kids and recognize who that is". They absolutely did not say those exact words but something along the lines of it, and it's stuck to me for days because it's true! Like I don't think kids nowadays have that kind of connection other than theatrical kids movies, which sucks I think moments like these are precious to have.

Another thing is that I think people kind of underestimate how popular cartoon/2d/3d shows are with adults? Especially young adults because the people who grew up with like, 1990s-2010s shows are probably mostly grown adults now. Probably the best recent example of this is Adventure time and how (I think) big Fionna and Cake is. Like I could go on Twitter and be spoiled hell and back on the newest episodes LOL. How about Owl House and Infinity Train? Bluuey too?? I don't know, but with the writers strike and how swept under the rug animation is, especially on streaming, it just kind of sucks where the current state of animation is right now for everyone as a whole

Old vs New | 1 Year Anniversary

I failed to realize that I missed my own anniversary of drawing Sun and Moon.

Yup! January 19, 2022, I drew my very first FNAF fan art after my fyp was flooded with Security Breach art of every character in the game.

But the one that stood out to me the most was Sun and Moon. When I first drew them, I was getting back into the funk of drawing for myself and not for school. So, it came out horribly. And I thought that one was enough.

Nope!

A year later, and I am neck deep in with these two jesters! Along with creating my own story, I'm just shocked to see my growth.

Thank you to everyone for the awesome artworks, stories, and comics of these two guys. Thanks for reminding me of the joy of drawing for oneself.

See yall in the next post!

Wait wait-

Just look at the way I drew a few months ago (That's my oc Joyja)

And then look at my most recent drawing

A FEW MONTHS. THIS WAS A FEW MONTHS APART.

I learnt a lot in those few months...

I also learnt that rendering makes my art SO much better

Juno Day Thirteen - Gossip Redraw

Juno Day Thirteen is the Juno T-shirt/Gossip redraw (it's the same fucking thing)

(click for better quality) I think it came out decent Also for some context here are the originals of this drawing.

From December 24th, 2022 the 1st Juno T-shirt redraw

And the original from August 5th 2022

Also Juno T-shirt doodle as a bonus for fun

(Yes Juno T-shirt exists, it isn't in very good shape anymore though, the picture in this drawing is from 2022 and it's all ripped up now, #shitty screen-printing that I wasted my money on)

Redraw of my persona's general design and outfits circa 2017 (original is featured on the left).

I'm probably gonna update their overall design. For now, I wanted to tweak their pre-transition design since I have plans for this character in some kind of future projects.

Old art but still a personal fave

I find it kind of sad that kids these days are going to grow up with the well-polished squeekie clean animation of modern cartoons and anime.

That's not to say there isn't anything wrong with clean animation, but I kind of miss the gritty asthetic of old cartoons.

Like when you could tell something was going to move because it was more animated then the background.

Or when anime wasn't so shiny. (One Piece is a great example of evolution from a gritty style to a more computer generation animation.)

That isn't to say they're aren't any good more sleek cartoons nowadays. I just think that old animation had character and I was curious if I was alone in this opinion.
