Heads up. The Christmas posts will be past midnight. Cleaning for New Year's guests took a bit more from the schedule than I hoped.

I wonder if anyone else is this late. 

And that's my story.

This completes my unpacking from Tumblr into Newgrounds. Sorry if my posting spree seems redundant and confusing to you, but to me it's precious history. Compared to most other people, I haven't been a hentai artist for long, and as a result I didn't have nearly as much to move as other people, but nonetheless, every picture holds a memory. Sure the pictures themselves are sealed in airtight envelopes, but when the scrapbook you kept them in gets torn apart from waterlogging, you know that they won't look the same in a different book. Not for a while, anyways. 

I at least wanted everyone to stay together, and I'm pretty sure everybody wanted the same thing, but everyone knew that we would be flung apart. I kind of kept myself in the shadows and never really talked to anyone, but I always enjoyed watching everyone share their ups and downs. Its a damn shame that an impulsive snap of one's fingers can bring an entire community to its end. I'm still trying to navigate this site, in more ways than one. I honestly wonder who else from Tumblr has come here.

I'll have my Christmas pics up by the end of today (Dec 28th); I only have shading and minor adjustments to work on. I know these are late pics, but for sentiment's sake, I was very insistent on chronology when I was "unpacking" from Tumblr.

Anyways, I hope you all enjoy my blog, and I look forward to seeing what this community has to offer.

The constant "noise" of fellow Tumblr bloggers died down to a desperate whimper at this point. The community and site that I feel in love with were both essentially gone.)

Throughout the day, I will be working on…”padding” this blog in preparation of the new policy. I’ll keep this soon-to-be grossly censored blog up for a time as a sort of lamenting memorial, but until then…

I have started a hentai blog on Newgrounds:

https://egandaworks.newgrounds.com/

I’ll probably have to remove the above link, too, at some point. Not sure how strict the policy will get. Nothing is posted on my Newgrounds account yet, but I hope to transfer my blog as close to verbatim as Newgrounds’s site functionality will allow (honestly, I want to preserve the memories made here). Trust me, I’m kind of running all over the place here.

Honestly, don’t even bother saving what you can from my blog here. Tumblr’s compression never did my artwork much justice–my works, when downloaded from Newgrounds, will have much more crispness to them, given the site’s larger upload capacity. They’ll prove to be much more satisfying pictures to keep.

Anyways, I hope to see you all join me at my new Newgrounds account. Looks like I really will be heading for new grounds, huh? Well, you can kiss the personality of this Tumblr blog goodbye.

Most of the people I followed were laying down multiple links to their accounts on other sites, and yet there I was, scurrying left and right desperate to even discover just one. It was sad and nerve-wracking at the same time. I really was not looking forward to migrating. Prior to this post, there was a reblog I made for a ban reversal "protocol," I guess you could call it, where people could piggy back this post and request for assist in getting their adult-oriented blogs back up. but it felt somewhat pointless then and definitely pointless now.)

Still searching for a new place for my porn. I’ve already compiled a list of candidates for my new stomping grounds. Now to do some research on how well each of them matches my personal wants.

I really don’t wanna leave this site, honestly….. I’ll give you an update when I move forward.

You can probably guess why this is happening.

As you’ve likely heard, Tumblr is trying to create a friendly environment for its viewers, essentially meaning that censorship has pretty much euthanized this place and many artists and cultures will needlessly suffer. I can already see that well over a third of my content has already been flagged. Not sure how some of the obvious ones slipped by the flags, but whatever, Tumblr shot itself in the foot big time. Come December 17th, 2018, this place’ll be a waistless wasteland.

I’m hesitant to make a Twitter account by a knee-jerk reaction (their character/picture-per-blog limit is particularly off-putting for someone like me that can go on and on about his processes). I also heard that Twitter’s getting rid of its “Like” feature, which takes even more points off for it being being my 1st place blog candidate.

I’ll give you guys an update and a link to my new blog place. I don’t particularly know what’ll happen to my account on account of my flagged content, but I sure as hell ain’t gonna wait around to find out. I hope I can find something else other than Twitter.

Net Neutrality

https://www.deadlinefornetneutrality.com/

Europe's Article 13

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GbXHrj8k7dg

All things consistent, I mainly focus on my own content. The primary reason I would ever share something is if I feel that the topic at hand is important and likely to impact all of us. There are plenty of times when I will try to explain political issues myself, but reblogging is more efficient if I happen upon someone who clearly has more resources and knowledge on the matter. As much as it pains me to say this, I have inadvertently spread misinformation before, which is why I now take extra care in adhering to cited sources [often personal emails from subscriptions] when offering exposition and commentary.

With that said, I URGE you to look at the links ASAP. These are very time-sensitive issues.)

Here is something else that I found, this time on YouTube itself.

I strongly encourage all of you to read the FAQ section on the bottom of the web page.

Funny how a shift in work project priorities can allow for such a thing.)

This last thing is an editing blooper that I thought you all would appreciate. Nothing beats lighting it with your hentai OCs.

I had already polished all the dialogue bubbles and most of the facial expressions to realize that I had yet to fill in the whites of the eyes for this particular base image and variations thereof.

I was already planning on putting in a red carpet when this stroke of brilliance smacked me square in the face. The double entendre dialogue, both of our expressions, the lollipop stick sticking out of Elly’s mouth, all the fuckin’ stars lined up just beautifully here and I simply just had to show you guys this.

This is an idea that I think would be really awesome to expand on at some point in the future. It was only a happy coincidence that August's Halloween costume can smoothly translate into a post-apocalyptic outfit.

I think August actually looks adorable here.

As someone who visits nudist resorts on occassion, there's something about this frame [and the general scene] in particular that felt familiar, laid-back, and to a large extent, pleasantly real to me.

It was only mid-project that I realized how much this frame looks like a pre-vore scene. I never even meant to touch upon the theme, but once I noticed, this frame has been turning me on real hard ever since.

The faces of schemers...)

Given all the effort I put into the animation, I couldn’t help but pick out my personal Top 5 frames from the project. The reasons are written in each picture’s notes.

I’m making a post-Halloween GIF comic. Sorry for the late date, but the idea didn’t come to me until the 12th. Stay tuned. All that’s really left is background work and asset polishing.

Ok, so getting it out in the afternoon didn’t get to happen. Still working on shading, and I’m gonna head out and have fun tonight. Will be back later to finish what I started. Prospect of releasing it tonight looks promising overall. Consider the pictures a treat for when you get back from your crazy shit.

Really wished I got them out sooner, though.
