September Dump

Hey there, I've compiled some sketches and comms from this month and the last. While I definitely have a lot more little things I could throw in here I thought it best to save some and not bloat a single post.
I've always been hesitant to present anything close to a roadmap but I think as I wrap up some of these bigger projects I can elucidate some details of what I'm planning on.

After this post goes up I'll be leaving for Maryland for VidCon East but seeing as I'm there for a bit longer I'll be taking some work with me and finishing some commissions and the like until I get back on October 2nd (sorry no streams).
Speaking of streams, I'm going to make a better effort of transparency with things I'm animating or storyboarding. Mostly because it's engaging but, equally so, I manage to get a lot done when I do stream.
At some point I'd like to get back to working on my full stream setup so that I can have some of these streams for a broader Twitch audience, but that's taking the backstage while I finish up both my teaser animation for my long awaited, overhyped, clowncore album and something of an accompanying visualizer for when I premiere it on YouTube.
While I would've LIKED to have something in the works for an album music video - and I may very well down the road - at this stage I'll be putting more effort towards making an animation for my standalone, silly song 'Snoozer'.

I also have some shorter Zalinki-hood-classic animatic skits that I'd like to have a crack at again because I'm not ENTIRELY stopping comedy stuff. So stay tuned for more on that (Hint: you can see some of the quick character designs for one of these in my last sketch dump).

Have a good rest of September and I'll see you in Cocktober! Ah-ah-aaaah! 😈👻💀🦇 I mean October ah-ah-ah... oh fuck.. 🧛‍♂️
