Separated at birth?

There's interesting enough a thread on the art forum about something like this. You cannot stop kids from watching your stuff, the more taboo it is the more appealing it is to watch it. Just need to accept kids will like something that was meant for older audiences.

This isn't even a recent thing either. Kids have been sneaking into R rated movies or some midnight grindhouse showing for decades. They'll always try to get what they can't be told they can have.

I rather honestly watch stuff that's more western in design because while I said they get more creative freedom, for every akira you get a million assembly line designed show that is just to satisfy someone for a month at best. It's a bit of a double edge sword. Western animation isn't allowed adulty stuff as much, but you get far more variety in experimentation. So both parties have their pros and cons.

I would suggest checking out /r/unixporn

It's actually SFW, despite the name, they're just nerds who are very passionate about how their desktop operates.

Japan has no stigma against animation so they get far more creative freedom.

I can deal and probably wouldn't mind if 14-15 year olds were into what I made. I would take a bit of offense if parents were buying something I made to their 8 year old simply because it was a cartoon. I've seen FNF shit on amazon advertised as for kids, possibly because it's cartoony and thus will easily entertain some random kid for an afternoon.

Did you know that the graphic novel Maus was mistaken by some as children's literature because it featured stylized drawings of the characters as mice and cats. If you don't know, it's about auschwitz. I'm just giving an example of something off the top of my head that stupid lore obsessed kids can get into that would ruin the overall vibes of liking something.

Like I said, kids being into something can shoot you in the foot easily.

You could ping a moderator to lock the thread. That's if you want to.

Newgrounds was always known as a site to make edgy and violent flash games where you punch famous people in the face for fun. The internet is for porn, newgrounds is not an exception for it.

Tell me what you're smoking and can I have some of it?

I'm going to be honest, unless you're simulating certain types of mediums, you can get by fine with just the standard soft/hard brushes. Krita and GIMP and MyPaint and the like, have tool settings you can adjust such as GIMP's brush dynamics or krita's blending modes. So less need for certain brushes. Besides, any brush pack you can download is just preset settings you can adjust yourself.

Not just that, every country has their own different criteria for decency and avoiding tasteless content. It's a very complex topic, it's not just protecting the children, though it comes across like that it's about that.

Didn't you get the memo? Anything cartoony is automatic for kids in the west. Even if school shooting jokes are made.

I'm honestly surprised OP didn't draw rouge the bat and that was what the most popular drawings were in question.

It depends on a few factors:

If it's a public airwave, you have to deal with the FCC if in the united states or whatever your country equivalence is. If it's on subscription based services like cable, you only have to worry about target audience and advertisers who are hesitant on being known for advertising for south park or dexter (the live action one).

Now, there is a period of the night from roughly 10/11PM - 5/6AM where they'll broadcast anything short of pornography because there's no worry about controversy of kids seeing this and the audiences that would be watching animation at 2AM would probably be okay with risque content or swearing.

You truly are a god among men tom.

Literally every character is the same.

Go open up a live action movie scene you love. Or a music video. And try to re-animate a small scene from it. Studying live action footage is an excellent way to get the idea of human like movement.

I now have a serious motivator to somehow someway get involved in this little collaboration. I got 2 months, that's still time.

We found em', the escaped asylum patient.

Where's the fun in that?

Your loss. I for one would love to do it frame by frame by frame if it means I can sketch it out on paper.

How detailed is it allowed to be before it's no longer low poly? PS1 models kinda bore me, I like the stuff the sega dreamcast was outputting.

I've found autotweening or at least abuse of it/reliance on it to be extremely cheap and highly noticeable auto tweening was used. I also encourage you to grab a copy of the animators survival kit. It will help big time.

Key frames are in other words: extremely important frames you cannot sacrifice. In an animation scene, you would have usually a key frame for the start and another for the end. One in the middle of an extreme. The inbetweens are the rest of the frames. Example:

Tweening can refer to two things: Inbetweening and auto tweening.

Inbetweening is part of traditional animation where you put a frame in between a key frame or some other important frame to give smoother illusion of movement. Auto Tweening is where the computer does all that inbetweening for you.

So yeah, when someone says tweening they're just saying another word for inbetweening, though the word has been associated also with auto tweening which adobe animate and other programs provide.

Just an FYI about krita: The camera is very finicky in the sense you can chew up system resources easily. That's why it's encouraged to break it up into small projects and/or export as image sequence and use blender as the visual camera.

Hey tom, I noticed another user had an issue with uploading a file to the website.

Beats me the issues going on. So could you take a looksie?

I got an update, I posted in the news blog post that for mobile users, it was trying to upload a jpeg as a png. Or at least, I think that's the issue at hand.

Because it comes heavily across as a self insert wish fulfillment fantasy. Most of the time, you'll notice being a loser who loves video games is the ONLY personality the main character has. Until he gets trained in combat and getting all the girls (After he unloads his emotional baggage of course).

The chronicles of narnia would count as a isekai, wouldn't it? The writing wasn't bad in that.

Those are great ideas... which is why they'll be ignored and replaced with another re-release of super mario 64.

You'll love alien hominid if you haven't played it yet.
