Comments
I've been getting a lot of great comments on Sheezyart and Deviantart about my latest toon. People actually liked the sneak peek I added at the end better than the 2 minute teaser itself, which makes me happy because that sneak peak is the first 30 seconds of episode 1, and the series will be in that direction. Also, I have started the script, the character models are almost done, and I have started a draft Flash version of the episode. With college ending in a month, I will have more than enough time to release it at the beggining of summer, giving me the chance to make more than 1 episode this summer.

Prehistorik: Beautiful Day = DONE!
I finally finished Prehistorik: Beautiful Day. This was a college project that I decided to turn into a teaser for my upcoming series, Prehistorik. You can watch it in the "Animations" section on the site. Enjoy! (Oh, and I got 95% for it).Sorry for the lack of updates, I know I said I would update daily, but I also realised that I don't have much to say during the week. Classes are eating all my spare time, so yeah...
Now that the teaser is done, I'm going to start working on episode 1. I'm still looking for voice actors, so contact me if you can help out with that. I'm also working on a cool poster I want to print out and laminate for my empty-yellow wall.

Sheezy Radio!
Sheezy Radio is a podcast/live radio show from Sheezy Art. Hosted by Renner, this show is about art, and people's opinions about it. Every show features a different topic, and people can record their thoughts and send them over, to be played on the air. The host is sweet, the music is good (even though the first episodes had a couple of audio problems) and the guests are really interesting, so if you wanna tune in, simply add this url file into your winamp on Thursday, at 7pm eastern time. http://radio.sheezyart.com/In other news, I flopped my JavaScript exam and I leveled Fuels to 25! (My Troll in World of Warcraft).

Background Updated!
As promised, here are 2 screenshots of the backgrounds I'm working on for Prehistorik: Beautiful Day. The animation IS done, I'm just perfecting the backgrounds because I had to rush it a bit to hand it in on the due date. I've never been very good with backgrounds, so I'm taking my time to pratice and to give the environments some depth. Enjoy!

SheezyArt vs DeviantArt
As many of you know, DeviantArt and SheezyArt are online communities where artists, photographs, flash artists, music composers, and more. I have been using both for over a year now. It's a great way to showcase my animations and to get new people interested. However, the users of both sites often have this huge debate on which is better. Honestly, I think both are really great. DeviantArt is a much bigger community, but your 15 minutes of fame go by really quickly on that site. A very nice submission will be showcased for a very short period of time because of all the other submissions being submitted by the minute. SheezyArt is much smaller, but I see compare it to a village where everybody knows each other. I really like that type of ambiance for a website, and that I why I prefer to go on SheezyArt. Note that some of DeviantArt's features can only be accessible by paying money. Those features are FREE on SheezyArt. Also, Sheezy gives users the possibility to modify the layout of their userpage, which is one of the coolest features (it's like having a personnal webpage).
In the end, both are great, I prefer SheezyArt, but that is just my opinion. If you are looking for some of my work, you can check out my SheezyArt page here, and my DeviantArt page here. Note that you will find more stuff on my SheezyArt page. The reason why I'm posting this is because I want you guys to check them out. Also, if you have created some nice things, it would be really nice to see! And if you want people to visit the pages, just post the link in the comments for this post!

Oh noes!
Evening everyone! I'm sorry I didn't blog yesterday. I had 8 hours of class and when I got home I had an appointment at the chiropractor. Nothing really intesting to say about yesterday except that I watched the O.C, and I gotta say, this season is really disapointing. I'm a huge O.C fan, and the only dvds I have purchased in my life are the dvds for that show. Season 3 just seem unorganised and a change of writers, but now it's almost done so I'm excited to see what's going to happen next. Thankfully, I started watching 24, and I am hooked.
I'm going to take advantage of my weekend to remake the backgrounds of my nearly done cartoon. I will post some pics asap. I also have an appointment with a manager to make a website for his company. If all goes well, it would be my first real contracted project and I can't wait to get started on that. The fact that I will spend my summer working on websites and animations (things I love to do) is sooo much better than working in a video store (where I worked last summer). Well I better be off! Toodles XxX

WoW Goodness
After a long day of school and a terrible headache, I decided to relax with some World of Warcraft. I was invited into this awesome guild, everybody is really nice and helpful. I hope it's going to make me want to play more often, because my free time is very crucial. Enjoy the photo of my Troll, named Fuels, enjoying the gorgeous region of AshenvaleTuesday, April 18, 2006
Back to college...

Well my ''spring break'' ended yesterday. Had to get up early this morning to get to class. Ahhh! The week went by pretty quickly, but the good news is that I have only 5 weeks left until my summer vacation. I had Flash class today and I learned that I'm gonna have to make a website for the final project. Should be pretty fun and easy!

Animation done
Yay! The animation for college is done! I said I wanted to release it tomorrow on the site, but I want to rework on some backgrounds and make it perfect. I'm sorry if someone was looking foward to it, but I think it's a smart move, even though I hate to push back release dates. I'm gonna hand it in to the teacher like it is right now. Not that it's bad, I'm just saying that I had to rush a couple of scenes to make it in time and I want to go back and practice drawing nice backgrounds and eventually using them in the episodes of Prehistorik.Also, for my college Flash, I had to draw a cavewoman. Well there she is! Cute, isn't she? :)

Easter Sunday
I just wanted to wish everybody a Happy Easter! Hope you had great fun. I went to my aunt and uncle's house and we had a blast! College University (Flash series on Newgrounds) released a special holiday-related toon on Newgrounds. I really enjoyed it and it can be viewed hereIn other news, my Flash project for school is almost done, I hope I can finish it tomorrow! Expect it on this site Tuesday.

Game Break
A couple of weeks ago, I was wondering what I could do during my spring break (it was pretty late this year). Anyways, when I found out that Kingdom Hearts II was beeing released in North America around that time, I thought it was a good idea to pick it up (like 80% of the SheezyArt users) since I really enjoyed the first one. Turns out I was right. This game was a blast to play. I won't spoil anything, but if you played the first one, you owe to yourself to pick this one up. For an RPG, it was on the short side and much too easy, but I still recommend it. Kingdom Hearts II is in stores now for the PlayStation 2.Friday, April 14, 2006
Anim Update
As promised, here are some screenshots of my upcoming toon called Prehistorik: Beautiful Day. This toon is a project for college and it features a caveman from my upcoming series: Prehistorik. Note that this toon is not part of the series, episode 1 will be coming this summer. This is more like a sneak peak. This toon is about the different paths life offers and that whichever path you chose, there will always be obstacles in the way.
