I`m back as a guest on the D'ART Shtajio vlog series to pass the torch over to DantéDCCarver as it`s new host. Check out the episode here & please watch old episodes to hear all about working in Japan, the anime industry, etc!

Was able to finish that sequence.
When in doubt, erase even some key-frames that *work*.
The whole animation sequence doing what it needs to is more important than one handfull of keyframes looking cool. (The new keyframes look cool too so it all works out in the end)

Sometimes an animation sequences is just *not* working & you gotta come back to it another day with a fresh set of eyes.
That`s where I`m at right now. 90% of this is working but the last second or so is just not no matter what I do.
Going home.😩
Will look at it again tomorrow.

They used my screenshot. 😁
For those who don’t know, “Anytime One Piece” is still playing the whole series on loop over and over again in Japan at the link below.

One more (very appropriate) figure to add to the collection.
As someone who’s drawn “Damned Punk” I can’t help but feel this one’s a little short 😅… but over all a very nice figure!

Here is my “Damned Punk” animation from ONE PIECE 1066. I knew the big reveal sequence had to be something crazy, but it took me a while to arrive at this. I’m glad everyone seems to like it.
これも私が担当したワンピース1066話のアニメーションです。よろしくお願いします!

D’Art Shtajio’s Vlog series about working in the Japanese anime industry is back! I don’t work at D'ART Shtajio now but I jumped on the vlog as a guest for their first 2 episodes back.
Enjoy & watch all the old episodes if you haven’t!

Magnificent eyebrows right here.

Perhaps (?) a controversial take... but Rob Lucci has better eyebrows than Sanji.

I don’t go to Akihabara very often anymore. Maybe a couple times a year.
But no matter how many years I’ve been in Japan… when I *do* go to Akihabara, I can’t help but buy a bunch of stuff. And that “stuff” is almost always Dragonball related.

I didn’t work on the next couple episodes (and haven’t seen much from them tbh)… but word on the street is they’re gonna be amazing.

Finally beat FFVII rebirth.
Took 127 hours.
While (as with anything) I have a few things I could nitpick, here’s the simple review:
They took the *boring* part of FFVII and turned in into a 10/10 masterfully directed epic.
It’s pretty unreal actually. Amazing. Speechless.
