[Bird Talk]

Who knew this shit could be so interesting. XD

[Happy Boxing Day!]

Move like a bird, sting like a... buffalo/bison/beast of similar caliber? :P

This was great. Wonderfully wacky style and friendly ending, and if this was all manually painted then soo much work put into it too. Just sometimes feel like the pace is maybe a little unnecessarily slow. Some scenes take their time on expressions, and pans, and motions that don't always seem to do or imply anything. Even if there's no tension, or build, or any really perceptible emotion/reason to stay in the moment. Like maybe it's more so because the art is so thorough it needs time to breath. That's the only thing I feel could be a bit more polished.

Awesome work overall; Happy Boxing Day!

It was in fact manual painted! Lots of Gouache. Thanks for the great review!

[The Last Mother - 2D Animated Student Film HKU 2020]

This was incredible. So captivating. So polished. So fluent and full of fire and life, the colors carrying the scenes, moving from one element to the next, from flower to animal, the world we somewhat know yet all the more alive and vibrant... an ode to Mother Nature? The tree of life? To Earth and science and all intertwined? Feels essential somehow. Ancient. Like the foundation for everything. And beautiful. Amazing work.

Wow, incredibly well worded. Thank you ! ♡

[PLONK]

Those symmetrical scenes really took this to another level. :) Plot progression's maybe not entirely obvious all the way but it's cool you manage to follow along without real speech for the most part, and the style's a fascinating one! Appreciate the frame by frame too, feels like a lot of work went into each bit. What a trip.

[GOOEY GOATS]

Well that didn't go like it was supposed to! XD

Can't complain though. So well done. Stopmotion. Brooding music. Felt like a full movie. Gets me back in that old Re-Animator kind of mood too, like an ode to a bygone generation of wonky horror that both managed to entertain and disturb you so much at the same time. Nicely done.

[Juice WRLD]

Shout out to the legend! :/ RIP.

Coloring could've been a bit more precise here though, could've been longer, it seems like a tribute with potential too. ;) But props on making something.

[Supermarket Blood Pressure Reader]

The detail level here's just amazing. :O What a trip.

We don't have any machines like this over here yet. Hope we don't ever get them...

[One Big Morphing Orgasm]

What a trip this was! Some of these just so incredibly fluent. And with differing music you can just keep it looping and looping and looping... great work with this one. Great idea&great art.

One thing though: screensaver links unfortunately no longer seem to be there. :(

[Retro Collab]

Menu's great, bios are great, the animation themselves are - with limitations maybe even more so - awesome! :D Seeing this I'm reminded how similar things really are these days. Miss the times when things were both new and wholesome. This really is unique! One of its kind. Like so much was back then.

The idea and the execution of it. Just the transitions are sometimes the best parts. Almost hypnotic even with their so limited pixel perfect fluidity and palette.

Awesome work all! Way longer than I expected too, with an ending that just perfectly surmises that simplicity of all.
