Hey there guys~! ^^

Another quick little personal update before I start posting updates on the newest animation.

For the past few weeks I've been trying to acquire some new tech, tech that will help me in the production workflow.

I am happy to announce, that thanks to all of your support, I've been able to acquire a brand new drawing tablet to use for my animations! It is bigger, much clearer (4k) , with better pen stroke precision (4x as much as before). The tablet on the left is the one I have been using for the past 6 years. I had it since my days in Animation college, so I feel it was finally time for an upgrade.

And how will this help with my animations? Well, I'll be able to draw much more easily, and with better results, meaning I can draw animation frames quicker. There are many cool new shortcuts and little functions that come with the tablet itself (by quick buttons and touch menus) that will help me perform actions other than the actual drawing much more efficiently. This tablet is hooked also to my main PC rig now (and not a standalone tablet like my previous one), so I'll be able to use the full power of my PC with the animation program (so faster rendering and the like). I'd like to say also, just the change to something new has motivated me more as a whole.

So a BIG thank you to all of you folks! Your support is going into making these things happen! I enjoy doing this for y'all, and I cant wait to start working on making growth animations on this thing!

I've attached to this post the full resolution of the sketch I made using the new tablet as a test and for use in the above images.

Needed a bigger screen to let these monsters GROW even more~!! Hehe ;)
