I've been sucked into the strains of working weeks upon weeks of overtime. I'm not talking about that long-paused fourth animation I still have intents on finishing one day, I'm talking about my regular-jack-off job.
While I don't animate as much as I'd like to these days (as in at all,) I have been steadily putting out some new artwork. As a result, I've been making out of state trips to Arkansas-based art and music festivals known as Flux Festivals hosted in part by none other than NG's very own FatKidWitAJetPak! In fact, in just a little over a week from now, I'll be making the trip again to attend Cosmic Flux. Anyone in the Arkansas area should check it out!
I really owe it to Nick (FKWAJP) for helping me realize my potential by welcoming me into the Flux Family. It really is a wonderful experience, a paradise if I do say so. It's a personal goal to be self-sustaining with my art, at least to a degree in which I can phase the days upon days spent not painting as a result of either working or attempting to recuperate myself from the stresses of such a strain.
If I can somehow fucking pull this off you can guarantee Overtime and many more animations will follow. To whoever out there is still curious about it, (I know there are quite a few out there,) please just know that I have not forgotten about it, and I absolutely do not intend to let it die. It's too fucking cool of an animation already and there is so much more I want to put into it.

You know, whatever gets you through the long hours will work. Painting seems more therapeutic than stressing FBF stuff... but doing a few frames a day can add up... hopefully so does your overtime! Gotta watch you don't make too much, otherwise the taxes they pull out, make it not worth it :/
At least the path is clear, if a bit tiresome. Really glad you found some art freaks to hang out with, if they're anything like the NG rat pack that went to Pico Day, your sanity should be assured ;)
