Hello, everyone! All the new and old followers, those who also probably don't know me at all!


2020 was really a trip, can't say a good one, but sure was an experience for many of us.

As for me, it had its huge downs and ups. But by the end of it, I posted two, probably best (and frontpaged!), arts and got a lot of new followers, making me go above 350 followers! Which was crazy, a lot of cool people followed me too and I just can't believe it.

In August I participated in my first NG contest, winning 2nd place, which was a good motivator, but sadly all the changes (online classes, quarantine, me flying from my homeland to Ireland) made me struggle to keep up with my projects. But! On the nicer note -- I managed to still animate every month! Not all's uploaded here cuz I don't think it's good enough, but I have compiled the good stuff together;



If you see a lot of WIPs there with two reoccurring characters, then those are Alma and Rasty (That were also in the contest entry art) from the my friends and I series END-venturers. I kept posting journals saying that I'm working on the next cartoon with them, but as I said earlier, quarantine got me stressed and I only managed to animate bits of the episode. THO! END-venturers will still become a thing! Sooner or later! I failed my 2020 resolution of posting more END stuff, but I have a good feeling that 2021 is going to be much better for my projects.


Actually posting END-venturers is my new years resolutions for every year, because there are 10 episodes planned and I hope someday to see the 10th one uploaded. Another of my new years resolutions is also to get into music-making. I actually did create music this year, which honestly doesn't sound that good, but it's still my first try! I even compiled all of them into this small video (with their original titles and all!);



I hope this new year I'll practice more and get more proper songs out that won't be embarrassing to post into the portal :)

Oh! And with all of that, maybe get to create a small game, too? Well, that one's a bit far-fetch'd but would be cool to see if I can manage to learn more media that's not animations.


Man, I talk a lot when I update these things, thank you all who read all of this! And thank you all who followed me and enjoy my content despite me not being too active!

Happy new 2021 and hope all of us have a good oneπŸ’œ

Hello friends, I've upgraded my tools, I no longer use Wacom Intuos, the nice little soldier I had for four years who's bound to see his retirement, and I have finally ordered myself a nice XP Pen tablet - Artist 15.6 Pro!

Gotten the baby 2 days ago and I've already been working lots with it and so far it feels much more comfortable than just a normal tablet I've had.

Still have yet to change some settings in Adobe Animate so I can actually work more properly but I hope that the quality of my works will increase now that I actually have a bit more comfort within my workspace :)

Dunno if anyone still cares since I've been taking breaks from animating and drawing for a bit, but yep! I closed my Patreon for the time being due to the fact it was not really helping much with income, and Patreon decided to take more tax from it, so there's literally no use of having $2 given to me per month, haha.

That being said, once I'm done with my current commissions, I'm going to make my Ko-fi more active again instead and pray my ass that people will like my ms paint doodles 😬


On the other news -- END is still being worked on, yes! A bit slow, but progress is being made, which is good.

Hope you guys are looking forward to that, even if I don't really animate and post fast, I'm just hoping at least what I do create is at least anyhow entertaining to some degree πŸ™


Thank you for reading and hope you're having a good oneπŸ’œπŸ‘»

Hi all ya'll!! At this point it's just me thanking every time my works are ever given any attention to, but!!

iu_115261_6066107.jpg Yesterday my latest toon "Fanboy on Crack" got on the second place of P-Bot's daily and today I woke up with tons of new followers, so I want to say thank you very much for enjoying my works!!


As of any updates --

All I want to say, I'll be less making the fan animations like the FBCC ones I've made and will work on more original stuff, like more episodes of END-venturers and whatever comes to my mind with my characters. So I hope you guys will enjoy my future works, as well πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™

I've.. completely forgotten I have any other social media other than twitter LOL

But yeah, I've finally turned 20 on 8th of october, hitting that second decade in my life and all. Hooray


As of any updates

uuuuuuuuuh, I'm in a first year animation course, have no clue how I've got in, but I'm glad I did. Due to that I'm kinda too busy, BUT, I'm trying my best to animate a cartoon at the moment.

Some may know what it is, some may not, I kinda spoiled in on twitter some time ago

But I hope you guys are going to like it either way!

The script for this toon is like what, 3 years old now? I've gotten much better at writing now, but I want to finish it for the pure purpose of having it done. Sorta like, hey, I'm an animator, I actually DO things, ya'know?


Thank you for taking your time on this news post, not sure myself why I thought I should update my NG followers here, haha

If you want to see more of my stuff, even stupid doodles, then follow me on Twitter

Doesn't mean I'm abandoning this place, Twitter's easier when it comes to posting small doodles and sketches and all
