Hello Newgrounds!
It's probably a good time to spread some recent 2015-ish things and announcements to conclude a pretty warped year with a round of GIFs ->>>

Pencilmation!!
Just recently I had the fun of working with Ross Bollinger on episode 44 of the long-running pencilmation series!
It was cool to try something closer to stick characters for a change ->

 

 

 

 

Newgrounds 20th anniversary collab!!

It was a long project, but as you've probably noticed, it's finally out!
I made a segment for the amazing 25 part animation collab; 1999 to be exact, based on early Ng titles like Pico's School, Samurai Asshole, and the less remembered UFA.
Just have to add, what a magnificent collab; it's the kind of thing to get back to every once in a while, and for the first time ever I have a 'game/interactive' submission!

DINO-MELT?

Speaking of GAMES; Development of my platformer DINOMELT has been staggered for a while because of work, but just recently I'm back at it creating scenarios and creatures!; here's a little sneak peek at some more clay beings!

While I've been stuck on other proyects; it has been a pretty good time to flesh out some ideas for the rest of the game, and reconsider the 'scope' of the proyect (turns out it's rarely as small as it looks at the beginning) so stay tuned!

'Sprouting Frog Waves'

OH, One more highlight of the year I just found out I hadn't mentioned here:

 

'Sprouting Frog Waves'; an earlier short I made originally for NATA'14 actually won a Festival award! on the Chilemonos animation festival; it was a surprising turn of events, and a pretty big thing for a short which started as a NATA's Novice Round animation originally sent with the main objective of pretty much learning the festival submission process.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So; while I've been able to experiment with a bunch of things  (like good-old-GIFs and the game) 2015 felt a bit  slower productive-wise, mostly because a few things are still in progress (ahem. DINOMELT!!) ...there's also a comic I made for print which I want to translate to upload properly...

2016 - THE FUTURE!!!

Early next year I plan on finally getting the Dinomelt version I want to share done; And my main goal for 2016 is pretty much focusing on getting seriously back into animated shorts which I have left aside for the most part this year...

Aaand well that was long! That said; thanks for reading and here's hoping for a blast of a new year for the Newgrounds!
