Another year almost over! I'm going to visit Tokyo one more time this holiday season. Next year I'm staying put! Excited to visit some animators and friends, going to miss my family and cousins back home. Sorry guys! ;_;
Here, have a Samus. She's a poster that comes with the Bad Dudes Metroid arrange album.
The "Billie the Unicorn" interactive storybook app came out late Friday! Mobad did an excellent job on it, and I'm not just saying that because it's my book. There are so many easter eggs and hidden treats to find. I'm still discovering new things!
The book can be read alone, or there is an option to read along with a voice over. Touching individual words will be pronounced in English.
Ami Goff at Mobad worked very hard separating and layering the art. The characters move, the backgrounds have depth. She put a lot of love into this, and I'm really thankful for all the care she gave the book! Hopefully the app does well, so new projects will come of it. Namely a certain cat made of bananas...
At the moment, the app is only available for the iPhone, iPad, and Mac, but who knows what the future can bring. :) It's still available as a hard bound book, for those who love the feel of turning pages.
Thanks again for everyones support!!
The app is available here!!! ★☆★★☆★★☆★★ ★☆★★☆★★☆★★

In the meantime, I haven't been drawing much of anything that isn't work related. I'm also going to Tokyo again at the end of the month. Good stuff going on!
I made a music playlist! I made a hideous monster drawing for a friend! Continue on, if you DARE!!!!
"Doc Bizarre, M.D." by Joe Casey and Andy Suriano!
Andy Suriano was nice enough to ask me to contribute a pin up for his new book! It's about a doctor who makes house calls for monsters and creeps! It is not a book for small children, but for a comic book fan of a more refined taste.
Preview Here
Includes character designs and lots of extra art!
My soundtrack I've been listening to thru October and November. It is a good to have music when on a quest through a magical land!
Song time under the cut! Clicky clicky!
Hey guys!
WB Animation approved me to share this clip with you.
To clear up the confusion over this part of the DC Nation commercial:
She is getting a short. I am working with a group of fantastic people to put this together.
I animated the clip on short notice, and color help came from Claire Lenth, video composite from Will Feng.
It's been rewarding and a lot of fun to work with such a great team. Later in 2012 you'll get to see our efforts!
Thanks for all the support over the years. I never thought I'd get a chance to work on something so magical.
(Oh and the Titans shorts are coming. Super excited about that. I've been working quadruple time lately, XD)
Here's an unused animation cycle for you internet!
animated on paper, colored in photoshop. :) My obsession with gifs has paid off.
Anyone going to CTN Animation Expo in Burbank, CA in a couple of weeks? I'll be sharing a table with Steph Laberis! Our table T-81.
We will also have a sketchbook available, half will be Steph's doodles and creations, and the other half will be stuff I have drawn. It'll include a couple of pages of a project I pitched a few years ago, among Banana Cats, Tricky witches, and unicorns.
Stuart Ng will be carrying "Billie the Unicorn", so if anyone is still curious to pick up a copy, or if you have an old copy you want signed, please bring it by! I'll have some prints available too!
The other news is that everyone should watch the Green Lantern premiere on Cartoon Network this coming Friday, Nov. 11th. I did not work on that show, but the illustrious Thomas Perkins did contribute to designs, among many other lovely people I owe my first born too.
I animated three seconds of a commercial that'll be airing inbetween that block, so watch to see what it could be! WATCH TWO HOURS OF CARTOONS TO SEE 3 SECONDS OF ANIMATION. HAHAHAHA!

Eat all the candies and get all the cavities on Halloween tomorrow.
Next week a couple of big updates, on what's been eating my time and brains the past few months!
