Alright so here I am back home after a fortnight in the US where I attended my first Comic-Con. I finally met face-to-face and partied with friends from ToonBoom, Ghostbot, Wizards of the Coast, Amplifier, Newgrounds and The Behemoth, all to whom I’m grateful for showing me the town and drinking me under the table. We drank twice as hard as I thought we would and half as much as I thought I could. I certainly would love to have stayed for another week in San Diego with you people. It was amazing. There’s like a billion Comic-Con photos on Facebook from the Newgrounds crowd but I took a few of my own.
Bitey plush became my travelling companion after it was given to me at Comic-Con
by MoriChax. I love it like a brother. It took her 4 hrs to make!

Anyone here 17 years old? Today is the 13th of July, the 17th anniversary of my animation career. As a kid I hated school.

Some of the best scary stories I’ve ever heard have come out of the Pilliga Scrub and this one beats them all. Listen to this terrifying phone call in which an old man tells of his harrowing night, alone in the Pilliga.
So whaddya think? Smells lovely huh? If you know me, you know that a site overhaul has been on my to-do list for several years. And yet, it’s only been 4 days since the ball finally got rolling. I’ve made several attempts over the last couple of years, waving cash under the noses of friends ►►
To complement EA/Bioware’s gritty RPG epic, Dragon Age: Origins, EA2D created Dragon Age Journeys. It’s adventure role playing with turn-based combat in the fantasy genre (spells, swords, monsters, etc.) Built with Flash, it’s free and played directly in the browser. EA2D is a division of EA Games. They took Daniel Stradwick, a hugely successful indie ►►
At the end of last year I completed some illustration work for Dungeons & Dragons’ latest ‘The Player’s Strategy Guide‘. As it’s been published now, I’m allowed to show the stuff I did for it. The book is full of incredible work by other artists too, so it’s a huge honour to be sharing page ►►
Here I’ll teach you how to get around in my favourite animation software, ToonBoom Animate 2 and Animate Pro 2. The entire introductory video series (below) is absolutely free and, coming soon, exclusive lessons intermediate to advanced.
This is the story of the last of the Dashkin.
This was another attempt to make something from start to finish in a single day, but it ended up taking two. It’s also the first time I used ToonBoom instead of Flash for a personal work. I used Animate Pro 2 which, back then (early 2009), was known as Digital Pro. The response to this ►►
