So this still needs a lot of work but I think it's a good start for a guy who hasn't really flexed his animation muscles in a long time. I've spent so much time working in pre-production that I haven't even animated proper linework since I graduated college. Honestly knowing I graduated college with a BFA in animation makes me a bit concerned about the quality of this since it looks choppy in a lot of places. Definitely gonna have to fix up the hair a bit.

So I've got some updates to share on my cartoon. I heard back from the band I hired, they recently started writing the theme song which has me very excited. I've been doing a lot of commissions ever since I finished the storyboards like a month ago, haven't really had time to do any significant work on the cartoon other than just networking with my team. However, I have nearly finished a spreadsheet that will be very important going forward. Its purpose is to log the different assets I have to sketch/design as well as the shots they appear in. I split them into four categories- characters, props, locations, and creatures.

So far I have 64 characters (mostly background designs/alternate outfits), 46 props, and 16 creatures. Locations is probably gonna be the biggest one, but I don't have those completely logged. Recently caught up on commissions and wanted to take a break for a few days.
