Howdy Y’all! Time For An Update. I Hope Everyone Is Having A Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah And Kwanzaa
Howdy y’all! Time for an update. I hope everyone is having a merry Christmas, happy Hanukkah and Kwanzaa by the time they’re reading this!
I have to admit I wasn’t too happy with my initial drawings here. They seemed funnier in my head, and I feel like I rushed them out for clout - I feel like they were sloppy overall, and that I can do better (especially the Dexter/Stellar Blade one - ewww. Stellar Blade kindof stinks as a game).
That said, I am planning to change things up a bit with my artwork and go for something far more exaggerated and stylized and changing my socials and OC designs to reflect that, but it’ll take time. Consider this an early test run. I’ll update everything when I get the chance.
Speaking of socials, I may start posting on Instagram and another site soon (maybe, assuming it’s not banned or whatever). Insta will feature my recipes and meals, and that other site will have timelapse drawings. However, I’ll be sporadic on all sites because I don’t want to have serious mental health issues.
I’ll start posting more often soon starting in January. And hoo boy, do I have some art to post!

In light of recent events, I made my first political cartoon. I hope it upsets the right people if I say so myself.
Amen to all of this, especially the fifth point. It’s infuriating to see the CN library being mishandled by Max in such a negligent way, and the fact that so many shows bounce from service to service for such limited durations. They deserve better. These shows should be accessible, not the other way around but I digress.
I do have an additional and equally rambly point I personally believe in: the general visual identity of Cartoon Network was far more important to modern art and animation than we think. A lot of CN shows carried over the UPA style - simple shapes making diverse and complex character and background designs, all the way from Powerpuffs to Craig of the Creek, practically every last of those CN shows I felt had more influence over how modern cartoons look now.
Say what you will, but that visual identity has to be carried over for future generations. If there’s artists and cartoonists that use 90s era themes in their work - I’ve seen one artist that used PS1-era polygons for their character designs - and try as much as I can to replicate that 90s era Cartoon Network aesthetic, then there’s something worth believing in.
Hi all, I’m still here, I just haven’t been active because it hasn’t been a great time to be a fan of Cartoon Network. I’ll always be a believer, though, and I believe that
The Cartoon Network name will live on, even if its franchises are scrapped for parts
We need leadership who believe in CN and don’t push [adult swim] first
Checkered Past is a good idea and a good use of the schedule, although it needs some alterations. For one thing, it should be a part of the CN lineup, which shouldn’t have to close shop at 5.
MeTV Toons is good and a welcome home for classic cartoon fans, but it’s no substitute for CN. It was never meant to be and hopefully never will be.
The CN library deserves a stable streaming home. If not Max, so be it. Let Hulu or someone else take on the shows.
We need more good, winning original animated series. I didn’t particularly care for Invincible Fight Girl, but it’s a step in the right direction. Hoping Iyanu is closer.
