I’ve had to take a break from working on my bigger animation projects, something I hate doing but I find myself being more cautious as an artist recently as I don’t want to permanently damage my wrist. I very much wish I was more cautious in the past so I wouldn’t be paying for it now.
So as a result of being more cautious I’ve been playing with pixels as I don’t have to spend hours drawing 2-3 shots a day, its been kind of fun… little too addicting though. I’ve been thinking it over and am going to have a short little series of animated toon’s using NES sprites.
The wonderful thing about doing these toons is they only take about a week or so to do, I don’t have to draw much and its really all about making the sprites move around like they did on the Nes.
The little series will be called Pixel Perfect, and just focus on me fucking around with the sprites for weird little 1-2 minute shorts.
I’m looking at doing at least 6 episodes using sprites from Castlevania, Zelda 2, and Mortal Kombat II to name a few titles. The first episode is almost finished and is a jab at CAPCOM for ruining the Resident Evil series with RE5. I’ll post it up in a few days.
This week I’ll be returning to “Left 4 LOL: Survive This”, still trying to finish up the 3rd segment. I have about 28 seconds left to animate before its finished and I get to start on the grand finale.
See you on Friday.
