This year I haven't done anything for MD. I actually did the art parts for at least 4 projects from a very cool people, but none of them made it in time too. Hope you'll see at least a couple of them this year (I'll do a post when they come out).

Also I'm still working on the first episode of my solo series that I started to animate in 2020. It should have 5 main episodes and at least 2 additional ones (.5 if you want) and I already have a clear view of how they all are gonna look (except for the last episode).

Here's some screenshots of what I've done for now (these are 2 first minutes where the animation is finished):

A lot of things where changed since I started to work on this project again. Partially redrawing and fully reanimating the first 2 minutes of the 6-minutes project was a pain in the ass but it totally worthed it. Maybe I'll do a video comparison to show you how much changed after 2 years of me being a madness (kinda) animator.

So why making a 6-minutes madness animation taking so long for me you may ask. And why tf there's like only 1 post in a year and half:

1) Just like I said before, the past year I've been working as background slave for my friends. The good thing here that backgrounds in my own project did improve too.

2) I need to earn money to keep myself alive, so I decided to make a crazy move and find a job (wow). This is actually not bad too, because somehow with my deplorable animation skills I've got hired as an animator. So I'm still learning some useful things even there.

3) [No more relevant]

That's all I think, happy (late) Madness Day everyone!

So I decided to change my name to something a little bit more pronounceable and my avatar to an acceptable level. That's all with rebranding.

Next - animation news. I'm working on 2 projects right now. Let's start with one that will come out first.

That's a moving background which you gonna see for about 2 seconds, so here is a good chance to have a close look on it.

Another one mostly finished fragment (gotta change halo and text):

Now the second (side) one. I've already made 3k frames, but it's not even a half yet.

Here is the last frame done by now:

I hope to end both before the end of the 2021, but this year seems to be the hardest and the busiest in my life (at least next 3 months). So almost all free time I would get I'm gonna dealing with these two.

Also I made some actual doors for the second project:

Upd: I swear the .gif was working when I was creating a post. So here is a screenshot of half-opened doors 'til I understand how to fix it:

THANK YOU!

I'm glad you guys liked my last submission, although during its creation I constantly had the thought "why am I doing this and who needs it at all?". Now that I have a large (by my standards) audience, I want to inform you that I have returned to work on the project, which I have already postponed 2 times. By the way, here is a shot from there (background and surroundings here are not finished):

By the way after I finish this project (or when I'll still be working on it), I'll try myself in another program for animation, which should work better and where I can fully realize all my ideas for the next videos. If everything will be perfect you'll see the result on MD 2021. If not - you still get the full movie from the screen next year anyway.

And as we say in my Homeland - Vsem kiskam peace, vsem piskam kiss.

This thing is the reason why you'll see my new video on this site only tomorrow. Also, Happy Christmas, even if it is already passed. <3

Madness Day 2020. So... how is it been?

IT WAS FREAKING AMAZING! Guys, I don't have any decent words to tell you how cool it's all was. And I'm not even talking about all those awesome animations, arts, music and ideas we've got on this MD, I'm talking about you - people, whose comments I was getting every day (and still getting). I didn't really expected that reaction to my project would be this good, not only because of animation's controversial idea but my skill at drawing humans - I really didn't practiced much in this before. Every your comment was making my day brighter and some even made me make a mean man's tear :')

First time in my life I really felt I've really done something, and now my future became more clearer for me. At least I know there is a such nice community that I can go back to anytime. Talking about communities, after all these years on the Internet I've really never met such warm and friendly ones as MC's and now I've experienced how it's feel to be a part of it.

What's coming next?

Before I've started making this animation, I already had idea about creating my own series. After some practice with animation tests I even created demo for 40 seconds. And now I'm back to it. So, I don't want to disappoint people who are already waiting for the next MC op, but next Madness Day it would be a thing, that you are all used to. And if I made it good I promise that you'll definitely see another anime opening :)

Also there is a frame from demo that I'm working on right now:

This guy looking right at the MD 2021 and seeing that it would be even greater than this year's.

And if someone interested what pieces of animation I've done before - send a comment, and maybe soon you'll see from what it's all started.

THANKS FOR THE WONDERFUL MADNESS DAY EVERYONE!

I WISH YOUR DAYS WILL BE GREAT AND THE JOY OF MADNESS WILL GIVE YOU ALL THE ANSWERS
