Behind the Scenes: How to draw Cat
I'm currently boarding the 2nd "Ask a Cat" short! It will be a crossover between it and "The Fuzzy Princess".
For the next short I'm hiring an animator to help out. Thus I'm creating design sheets to show how to draw the characters. Here's one of them.

Got a new tablet today! Did this animation as a test as I get a hang of it. Pretty happy with it!

"The Fuzzy Princess" turns 5 next year, and I can't thank everyone enough for making it possible to keep it going for so long!
5 years is no easy feat, and I want to celebrate with something big. That's why, for 2021, I want to release a "Fuzzy Princess" animated short. Having done two shor...

It's out! My new short!
Charlie wants to prove to Star-Ship that he has good taste. Is that a good thing, though?

This is a sequence I decided not to use for my short. It was an experiment with tween animation, but it looks out of place because the rest of the cartoon don't really use it

BEHIND THE SCENES: Charlie the Human titles
