Got something cooking up, here's a little teaser for you... your eyes only.
I'm just a grad student making his way in the world by making movies, to entertain others, I do a lot of gaming in my time and I'm also quite the artist in my spare time. Be sure to check out my portfolios while you're here!

Got a new video up! But apologies, it's live-action/game footage, not animated and it's 40 minutes long at 60 fps, don't think the NG servers would be too happy with such a video file. Regardless, I'm trying a new format on for size to see how people like it and I'm curious about your thoughts if you have the time to skim through it.

I've planned my trip to pico day and I've booked a 2 bedroom hotel room at the nearby Best Western Inn, so far it's just me in it but if anyone else needs a room and are able to split the cost, I'd be happy to accommodate.
Otherwise you can refer to this fourm post:

Good Morning Newgrounds! Do I have something special for you today... Remember "The Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny"? It's a Newgrounds classic that recently passed it's 10 year anniversary just last week! If you haven't seen it, get on that right now, but as soon as you come back, give this visual feast a taste. This is my interpurtation of Ultimate Showdown as a cinematic trailer, be sure to cast your votes and jot your comments on it after seeing it here:

Alternatively, this video does exist on YouTube in full 4K glory, for those of you who have screen resolutions large enough to enjoy all those details with. You can see that below.
Beyond that, another video is planned for a release in Feburary, however it is not an animation but rather an informative video; more details to be released soon. I will also be resuming classes and work with the start of the new year so my content will inevitably follow a sparce release schedule but I'll be cranking out some more comedic videos in the style of "#CLUBBING" and "Feral Furby in Heat" next year.
Also in February, MAGfest anyone?

Hi everyone, sorry about the long hiatus. But I'm now able to enjoy the last of my fall break before resuming the remaining semester and work. But during my time off, I was able to get this monstrosity banged out for your viewing pleasure. It's my first 60fps render that I released, mainly out of the curiosity to see if the Newgrounds video player can handle High Framerate videos. (Spoilers: It can) Also my first attempt at creating something a little more light-humored and fluffy, not like the action packed, dark humored stuff I'm used to making.
You can see it by clicking on the link below:

Alternatively, a YouTube link does exist as well...

In other news, another animation is just around the corner. You can actually get a peek of it in the ending credits of this most recent video. It's all made solely for the purpose of eye candy.

And in other, other news: I will be shooting to attend MAGfest this year as many of my 3D Animations will be screened on MAGfest's Games on Film in the "Select Shorts in 3D" section. You can view the whole selection in the link below...

If you are attending MAGfest, come say "hi" if you find me. I'll likely be on duty staffing the event, so I won't be in Cosplay, but I may be kilted, like the rest of the security staff there.

Have a new short cartoon out, you should be seeing it on NG sometime in the-duh-distant-future.
It features a cameo from Sam Green Media near the end.
Also, this Saturday I'll be attending Pico Day at NG HQ, if you're going I hope to see ya there. If not, well there may be another livestream of the event this year. (Don't quote me on it though).
In the meanwhile, enjoy this gif from an abandoned project that piqued the interest of Michael Cthulu (the guy who makes those Big Giant Swords).

Holy CRAP!
Is all I have to say about this sudden surge of praise and NG fame. I am both shocked and humbled that my most recent animation cause this much of a stir within the Newgrounds community.
On the critical side of things, some of you did bring up the video's shortfalls and yes I agree those are certainly things I wish I could touch up on. But do understand that video was slighty rushed near the end as I was trying to get that project done before MAGfest, and speaking of which...
I am currently staffed at the Music and Gaming Festival at the Gaylord Convention Center (yeah, that's it's actual name) as some of the benefits of volunteering for MAGfest over 30 hours is free registration, and free hotel room as well as some free merch. If any of you guys are going to MAGfest I'd love to meet ya, you can identify me as the dude in the kilt, minimalist shoes, goatee and maybe a Newgrounds shirt. Oh and if you're also attending, MAGfest staff OPs are always looking for some extra help.
Oh, and I'll be at the Newgrounds Panel at 12pm, Sunday.

From the guys who brought you the "Rebuild of Evangellion" films, here's some of their latest work.
Fair warning, not-safe-for-work! Viewer may experience simultaneous emotions of "WTF Japan" & "Holy Shit! This Awesome"

This is a link to the project's site, as the video does contain nudity, it's quickly flagged down on YouTube.
Enjoy!
