Concept art for a recurring villain character (middle), with his sidekick/guy who clothes and feeds him (left). He lives in the apartment next door to Kat and he does most of his evil plotting at 3am. They do not get along. http://rainbowdash.net/url/876147

(The mouth chart for that. Used to be I would just have one of these per cartoon. Now I sometimes have a few per shot.) http://rainbowdash.net/url/876138

Matt

you will be able to tell which shots I animated with a Simpsons episode on in the background http://rainbowdash.net/url/876137

Matt

…but it gets the job done. http://rainbowdash.net/url/876136

Matt

…it’s still accomplished as cheaply and lazily as possible, though. The chin is part of the mouth graphic and there’s a fixed position for each mouth shape so when I click on an image on this chart it does it all for me. http://rainbowdash.net/url/876135

Matt

this cartoon is so very innovative: the characters’ chins actually MOVE like they should when they talk now! http://rainbowdash.net/url/876134

I try to do what I can to remind people that it’s supposed to all be one continuity. http://rainbowdash.net/url/876110

Matt

Had to pull out the original mouth shapes from My Little Brony today for a gag that none of my modern audience will understand. http://rainbowdash.net/url/876095

i made this car in 2016, when I was 19. This is the first time the badging - a very mature nazi joke, poking fun at Mercedes-Benz' origins as a manufacturer - appears on screen. Going back and forth on whether or not I want to retexture it to remove that. http://rainbowdash.net/url/876094

Matt

have to imitate my “old” style from when I was 18 because this cartoon has a flashback to the first Twin Souls and I want the new animation to match the old animation… but I think I wasn’t even animating proper walk cycles back then so this might not even be applety enough http://rainbowdash.net/url/876093

Matt

When I start a cartoon now I usually use a program to generate turnarounds for characters’ heads based on two or three keyframes. Speeds things up a lot. http://rainbowdash.net/url/876092

Matt

at the beginning of this series, five and a half years ago, i intentionally avoided using swears or edgelord humor to prove that i could be funny and tell an interesting story without resorting to vulgarity. 2022 Matt decided to put a chronic leaf on a main character's shirt. http://rainbowdash.net/url/876090

Matt

back when i was e-famous i used to get requests to draw weird Undertale AU stuff a LOT during streams. i usually ended up taking the banana and making the characters say terrible things to get people to stop. unsurprisingly, this only encouraged people http://rainbowdash.net/url/876088

Matt

Dr. Bees. Opted not to use the original artwork from the cartoon because Harry drew the lines very thin in this cartoon & it didn’t read well when shrunk down to emoji size, so I basically traced over it with a much thicker brush & modified the face, exaggerated the size of certain features, etc. to keep it readable on mobile devices. http://rainbowdash.net/url/876087

Matt

Another Killgar, essentially recreated from a screenshot because the original .fla was MIA http://rainbowdash.net/url/876086

Irving, the Socially Awkward Bee http://rainbowdash.net/url/876085

Matt

designed a few emojis for Harry Partridge’s Patreon Discord, which I run because Harry’s a bit computer illiterate. http://rainbowdash.net/url/876084

Matt

if you showed me lines this clean when i was 14 and making my little brony i would have banana myself http://rainbowdash.net/url/876082

Matt

I really like this joke right here because it’s pretty likely to make two different kinds of people angry. http://rainbowdash.net/url/876081

Matt

idea i had for a vanity card, had to sketch it out really quickly before i went to bed http://rainbowdash.net/url/876070

Matt

I think it’s time to revisit this idea http://rainbowdash.net/url/876064
