Dang, has it been 6 whole years since Gospel hit Netflix already? I've gushed about my time on the show oh-so-much since it released but, dang, it sure does means a lot to me.

Share a GIF from a WESTERN you love.
I animated about 2.5 minutes of Midnight Gospel.
"I could've done more if I wasn't so slow..." I briefly think before remembering all those shots with, like, 8+ characters.
The... 6 deerdogs with impaled Clancy... in a triangle-wheel cart driven by a clown... doing a 3-point turn in perspective...
The chase music from the "Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog" cartoon pops into my head with surprising regularity:
Gonna start tagging those drawings I do where a character is just a li'l guy in the middle of the canvas with #JustALittleGuy.
Made a dedicated li'l guy feed and will be gradually quote posting the tag onto past li'l guys! ๐ค๐โจ

Worked in rough animation. I'd later learn having as much freedom as we did animating on Gospel was not the norm - it was a very lucky 1st gig.
I was overflowing with with imposter syndrome the whole 6 month stretch. I woke up doubled-over with anxiety tummy and diarrhea the first month and a half.
Every 4/20 I make my li'l Clancy doodle and contemplate my time on Midnight Gospel again.
My 1st and (so far) last in-studio gig.
Made/reconnected with many friends.
As a greenhorn I didn't haggle, taking my initial offer. Some of my colleagues made ~30% more than me for the same amount of work.

Mario & Luigi: Brothership contains an extremely cute model of a decorative baby penguin that appears only outside the playable area and is never seen up close. Below is a detailed view of the model to appreciate the penguin.
Illustration of a small, exaggerated Superman standing in the bottom center of the frame. He has a disproportionately large and muscular upper body with a small head, tiny hands, and comically teeny lower body. An image of his debut on the cover of Action Comics #1 can be faintly seen in the yellow background.

When a human runs a marathon, it's impressive because they're pushing the limits of what the human body can accomplish.
When a robot runs a marathon... well, congratulations, you've just made a small, creepy, inefficient car. I would not clap for someone crossing the finish line in their sedan.
