Do you ship Purelily?

Sort of? Not really? I view their relationship through a very specific lens:

# when it comes to shipping even if I have a very specific taste for a relationship dynamic-  # -if I really like the characters then it just makes me happy to see them in any scenario  # like with shadowvanilla for example  # I do NOT think they would be fluffy whatsoever. I think basically all fluff content of them is wildly out of character and not canonical  # but because I like both of the characters I can turn my critical brain off and just get giddy about seeing them both smile  # I feel the same way abt purelily  # I think their attachment to each other and the dishonesty PV has allowed to stain his perception of her is unhealthy  # but I can turn my opinionated brain off and love all the cute art of them being in love  # sorry if this is a little confusing I won't lie some of WL's lore goes over my head a bit sometimes lmao  # mailbox

ALSO HI IM NEW I LOVE YOUR WORK! ABSOLUTELY STUNNING ✨✨✨

I sure am! Love some tragic toxic lovers

I am VERY into jambound, it’s so insanely well written, I’d like to board out a scene at some point actually. I’m reading through it very slowly, but I will catch up one day :,)

and THANK YOOOUUUU happy to have you here!

# jamma's writing lends itself very well to imagining very specific composition and body language and I'm eager to make it visual  # mailbox

Do you think that there's a universe out there where burning spice became corrupted because instead of boredom he wanted to stop change because he was tired of making friends and losing them because of his immortality

He just wanted to to have friends but due to their fragile and short lives they're never able to stay

Honestly, I think that’s the canon universe!

# I love burning spice cookie so muuuuuchchchhhhh  # I wish his backstory was taken a bit more seriously in his chapters  # they only really showed the very end of his time as the herald of change  # I wish we could've gotten a taste of who he was before he became so bitter and hurt  # and I think a lot of people don't look much deeper into his backstory because of the use of the word “bored”. It feels kind of unserious  # if you don't look into it  # mailbox

Hello! I just wanted to tell you that you are one of the reasons why I decided to download CRK. For years, I had been telling myself to install the game, but I never did because I didn’t have a device capable of running it. When I finally got one, it never occurred to me to install it. Initially, I only wanted to download it because of the Sonic event (I’m a huge Sonic fan), but honestly, I forgot about it. It wasn’t until about six days ago when I was looking for animations on YouTube that your "Puppet Boy" animation appeared. I was honestly captivated by how well you portrayed everything. I loved every second of the animation, and immediately I realised it was from CRK. That very day, I downloaded the game, and I’ve been completely hooked on it ever since. I truly appreciate your animations, whether they’re short or long. It’s a pleasure for me to indulge in your projects. Please, continue doing what you love, and I hope everything goes wonderfully for you with your lovely animations/storyboards. :D (sry for my bad English)

This is so insanely sweet, thank you so much! I’m thrilled that you’re liking the game! 💙

Thank you for all the asks btw! I promise I’ll get to them soon, you guys are asking good cookie lore questions that I want to give myself time to think about, and I’d like to not spam everyone with my opinions if they’re only here for art

# also some of these asks I want to draw things for but I've got work to do cries and sobs

HELLO!! big fan of your animatics!! How do you make them and do you have any tips for inspiration, planning, and what software do you use?

Thank you! I’m glad you like them!

I think the realization that revolutionized the way I think about storyboarding the most is that you HAVE to let your imagination drive. I start off every animatic with super loose, super messy, barely legible sketches, with wrong anatomy, janky movement, etc. Instead of focusing on making it look good, I can just focus on setting it up for its potential, and starting my motivation at the highest point it can be. I never let my first draft take more than a few hours over the course of like 2 days max, or else the drive dissipates.

If I start a board right away with the cleanest, most beautiful art I can muster, I’ll kill my own motivation, like “Oh god, in my head, I imagined a huge spinning 3D camera shot here, with a bunch of dancing characters. That last panel alone took me like 30 minutes to draw, I don’t wanna do this! I’ll draw a simpler, flatter scene instead.” and then it ends up looking nothing like how I imagined, and I get demotivated before abandoning the project. But if I start with super messy lines, just barely enough to get the idea out onto a screen where I can watch it, the excitement and imagination will drive, like “Wow, this shot with a huge spinning 3D camera and all these complicated characters looks SO COOL! It’s gonna take a lot of work, but look how interesting it looks already! I can’t give up on this!”

For reference, this was puppet boy’s first draft!

Storyboarding is a bit different from a lot of other visual art mediums because it takes a LOOOOT more work before it starts feeling rewarding. Learning to manage your own motivation is a huge part of building the skill that I feel a lot of people don’t mention.

But when it comes to learning how to finalize it, study up on your storyboarding rules! Learn about perspective, anatomy, screen direction, and learn to draw FAST (that’s a big one). Draw out shots from your favourite movies, study their composition and take note of their camera/character movement, and how it aligns with the shots sandwiching them. Learn from other artists (I recommend Toniko Pantoja, he’s a very experienced board artist who makes a lot of videos abt improving your boards and what it’s like to work in the industry), and PRACTISE! Your first piece of art, whenever you try anything new, is going to SUCK. You’re gonna think its bad. That’s just how art goes. But the next time you do it, you’ll always, always, improve, even if just a little, even if you can’t see it for yourself.

The biggest thing to keep telling yourself when making storyboards is DON’T GIVE UP YET. YOU’RE SO CLOSE TO MAKING SOMETHING COOL. And then you have to keep telling yourself that over, and over, and over, and over, through all the sighs, and the frustrated rage-quitting, and the exhausted temporary give-ups, and then eventually, those animatics you keep building in your head get to be real! And it feels incredible.

# I have been feeling very sentimental over storyboarding recently for some reason  # I feel like I've been struggling to get to a point where it feels 'easy' for years and I've only just now cracked the code  # honestly I think making puppet boy was a load-bearing task in my journey as an artist as silly as that may sound  # because I've never made anything like it even though I've been dreaming of making something like it for years  # and now that I've made it I know I CAN make stuff like this  # so making more just feels easy  # teehee I love animation and I love art  # I love storyboarding and I love my job and I am so incredibly lucky to get to do this every day  # I'm so thankful for all the opportunities I've been given to get to do this and I'm even more thankful people like what I make  # feeling hashtag sappy  # thank you for the ask!  # maybe I'll make a full video talking much more in depth abt storyboarding someday  # because I definitely have a lot more to say  # mailbox

I totally agree with the headcanon that the Beasts don't actually like each other. Right now, their goals all seem to be at odds, so I can't really see how they would be friends if they're all just trying to undermine each other. That said, I personally like the idea that they originally got along, but that fell apart as they each corrupted.

Ooh yeah, I love that idea. It would make the dynamic between the beasts and the ancients all the more tragic when they all meet. The ancients seeing what their friendship could feasibly corrupt into and being terrified of it, and the beasts seeing what they all lost so long ago and mourning what they had
