I was going through my old sketch files that I made over the past 2 years, and decided to compile a selection of my unreleased or unfinished drawings that I felt were worthy of sharing. Included are some practice drawings of characters like Beetlejuice and Daffy Duck.

New Celine & Cheswick animatic is now out. Link here: youtu.be/3NTOfNhJjOE

New character. Meet Reuben the Rabbit. He's a flexible character I'm still figuring out.

Commission for @lecatmavi.bsky.social of their OC Louie. Commissions are now open! Be on the lookout for an updated commission sheet in the coming days, plus info about new animation commissions.

So to my surprise and shock, Celine and Cheswick (the animated short by @bhassell.bsky.social that I voiced in) is nominated for an Ursa Major Award for "Best Dramatic Short Work" I know it'd mean a lot to Brycen and the crew if you could give us a vote ursamajorawards.org

Rita the fox from Jungledyret Hugo.

It's getting close to another month, and that means we all gotta take care of those pesky end of the month bills again! Maxwell definitely doesn't like them, but he can't weasel (or squirrel?) his way out of them forever! #Wondermation #MaxwellSquirrel #indieanimation #squirrel #anthro #cartoon

Daffy Duck practice. #LooneyTunes

Roxine trotting.

New character! This is Roxine, a vixen I've kept to myself for a while. She's still a work in progress so her personality isn't established yet. Looking forward to doing more with her in the future.

Merry Christmas!

This is a somewhat incomplete character sheet I made of Celine back in October, decided to share it anyway.

Day 10 of our Kooky-vent Calendar! Gerda Nessence is just having the time of her life this holiday season! But maybe she's having a little too much fun at the expense of her siblings! Art by our animation director, @bhassell.bsky.social #KookyTrails #holiday #Christmas #adventcalendar #indie

youtu.be/cxBdxTxC-cs This is an animated tribute to Rita, my favorite Animaniacs character. I've had this idea in my head for a few years, I wanted to give this criminally overlooked character a chance to shine again, in the way I felt was most fitting to her. #animaniacs #fananimation

Been a while since I uploaded here. Now that Bluesky allows videos, here's some rough animation of the first scene from the next Celine & Cheswick cartoon. #CelineandCheswick

Happy #indieanimationday! After three years, my cartoon has been released! Go check it out on YouTube at youtube.com/watch?v=aXCJ... or Newgrounds at newgrounds.com/portal/view/... #indieanimation #celineandcheswick

Go watch the trailer for my new cartoon Celine & Cheswick, coming May 16th! #indieanimation #CelineandCheswick youtu.be/0JaOfSXwqOU?...

Commissions are OPEN!

The opening card to my cartoon, emulating that classic look. Be on the lookout for a teaser for the Celine & Cheswick cartoon on April 27th!

Here's an establishing shot from my upcoming cartoon.

This started as some sketches of Celine I did late one night, then decided to color them in some. I like the rougher linework here.

Late night sketches.

Celine plays veterinarian, Cheswick isn't buying it.

More Celine.

Commissions are OPEN!

Peter the Peacock returns.

Penelope Pussycat looking fabulous. Based on her appearance in Bugs Bunny Builders. #LooneyTunes

Pepe Le Pew and Penelope Pussycat, just because :3 #LooneyTunes

Here's a little tease for something I got planned for Halloween this year.

Rita and Runt from Animaniacs, perfectly mismatched. I love them. #animaniacs

Celine and Cheswick visit a museum somewhere and pose for a picture with a mannequin.

Here's my cat character Celine, of course.

New character, her name is Tipsy. Design and personality subject to change.

My first post on Bluesky. Just trying things out and getting a feel for the site. Here's a drawing of Roadrunner and Little Beeper I made earlier this year.
