Heya, ppl of the interwebz.

And just to get it out of the way: no, it ain't the AsterReich's first episode that my friend @connytoons is making that's gonna be delayed.

For the past days, I've been making myself a Flash animation with more length, effort, duration and with a more funny parody plot than any other of my works combined. I've tried doing it for the Flash Forward Jam before its deadline, but here's the thing, I don't think I'll be able to release in time for the jam.

I've been trying new things in real life for the betterment of my physical and mental health, a change of regime if you must, by starting to make exercise, sleeping only during night time and eating healthy things with a few cheat days. Overall progress is good.

Another reason why I needed the delay is not only logistics and health, but also because there is simply nothing new happening. I've been playing vidya gaems to release the pressure, since I was working on it for a whole week and a few more days, but no, no new mods, no new addons, no game types that fill my desires, nothing.

I was getting a burnout from not only the work, but not seeing anything new happening or releasing, hence why I stopped to rest my brain from an overcharge.

Don't worry, I'll still work on the animation, but I'll have to rest fully well to continue without being so toxic to my brain and my overall health. I'm so terribly sorry for these bad news, I hope you can forgive me for this inconvenience...

I'm still going to visit Canada somewhere in late April when I get my CA passport, so if any leaf Newgrounders want to see me you'll find me somewhere on the streets of Toronto, so yeah, I'll still kick your ass with my sheriff boots, @ninjamuffin99! (jk lov u and teh rethym gaem u med)

Hope I made it clear, everybody. And again, terribly sorry for the animation's delay, it'll come whenever possible.

'till then! <3

Heya ppl of Newgroundz and the interwebz aliek!

So, this past few months I made several attempts by trying to become a jack-of-all-trades, that is, I started trying to learn programming in an attempt to make my very first Flash game in Actionscript 2.0, making makeshift music with my own voice to feature in some of my animations, and with it the possibility of making actual music for a change of game, and finally, currently making my most ambitious animation to this date for 2023's Flash Forward Jam.

So far progress looks good, though it kinda feels like the beggining phase of Eddsworld's animation series with some cheapness in its look, only with modern artstyle and with old skool humor.

Take a look and tell me what you like:

I'm also still looking to hire people for my main series AsterReicH. I'll need animators, VA's for characters, musicians, artists. It's would be a dream come true to have not only people collab to make my animation story and characters come alive, but to have friends with the same tastes as I have. Been pretty lonely recently and I really wanna have some action and friendship with my dear moots. I love this place and the people are so helping and nice in their sort of edgy way!

Enough feels aside, If you feel like could help a homie out and be a programmer for my simple AS2.0 shooting range game, which could add shootable enemies, score counting, ammo counter, a possible boss fight, some other misc. things to spice up the game like a win/lose screen and all that, feel free to contact me. If anyone also feel like making simple music for it you'll be welcome too!

Remember, I can only do this for free cuz of my adult parental guidance, only thing I can spend is time and effort, so only join if ya feel like killing some time on something or just because you want partnershiping on small projects.

Anyways that's all for now! I'll be here waiting for you, guys and gals, any help will help. See ya 'round, doods!

So, another year over, huh? It was a crazy ride. Pelé's and Queen's death, war in Ukraine, cancel culture on the rise cuz of humor-lacking manchildren and yada yada yada, same old story every time.

But despite this, I think this year was mid but not bad. It sure is boring, annoying and cringy in many aspects, but my life has been good and survivable nonetheless. Been in a lot to trips to my hometown, gained a lot of new gadgets for my PC and good drawings made by yours truly.

For next year I really hope I can finally get an animation job, that the world doesn't blow up in nuclear fire and to finally join my national Asperger's assossiation to learn how to survive in the adult world of everyday life.

Also, I might probably travel to Toronto, Canada sometime in March/April 2023 as a family rite of passage, so get ready @ninjamuffin99, a new sheriff's gonna be in town soon... to make friendship with you in case I find ya, of course! :p

Anways, Happy New Year, y'all. Hope we survive another trip around the Sun, and may you have newfound hope and happiness for next year! :)

Breaking News!!!:

I have a surprise for you, guys... AsterReich is officially in the works!!!!

That's right, you'll see how the first chapter will unfold the story of Ricardo Aster and, soon to follow, his platoon of friends!

I finished the cover already, will post it tomorrow. After that, I'll make the first page that will be much more organized and different than what was first planned. Then, I'll continue the series with new pages that will develop the universe of the story. Oh!, just to be clear, sometimes I'll post my regular drawings that I usually do, might have not much to do with the comic. I also will need time to make the pages, cuz I'm a regular human being that needs to eat, drink, sleep, have fun, pee and shart, yada yada yada. So be patient, my silly 'wittle biscute, cuz they will come eventually, and I bet you'll like it!

Ok that's all for today, hope you're well informed and I'll see you Tankheads soon. See ya!

Heya guys, Ricardo here.

So, I've got few to no ideas on what to draw. As I'm writting this, I might have started working on uploading a new drawing just to act as a filler, although it's a drawing I made from boredom and lack of new things to draw, so I'm not really proud of it.

So that's why I'm asking this to you guys: would you like if I restarted remaking and working on the AsterReicH comic I've told you guys countless times on my drawings? Heck, maybe even starting giving a hint of my universe with some comedic comic strips? I would really like hearing from you guys, cuz I'm desperate! ^^;

Also, I'm looking for help on some original, clever and funny jokes that aren't overused or may be not funny for being too mainstream, so that if I start the comic strips, I can have some bullets loaded my magazine and ready to fire with hilarious results, if ya know what I mean. ;)

Anyways, that's all! Will be waiting for your opinions, guys, cuz I'm hella ready, boi! :)

Stay sharp, tankheads!

-Ricardo

PS: I will still be continuing sometimes on my normal drawings and in special ocasions too, like in the 4th July, in my birthday and in my mom's second marriage. I just need a little push so I can kickstart my working habits and gain more purpose here on Newgrounds. All help you guys can give to me I will accept and feel grateful for you, maybe even a free drawing! ^^

Hey there, guys!

So you probably may be wondering "Where's next drawing? y so absent lol?" ( or maybe not, I mean, I only started my account just some months before.)

But fear not, for I ain't dead (yet)! I'm right now in the process of learning and making my first, way-more-professional test animation! It might take a while to make, but I'll be posting some doodles and drawings from time to time, so stay tuned! :)

Remember that it will be, acording to my standards, one of my first animations here on the internet, so it might be a bit crude at the start, but I'll be aspiring to improve on my skills, m'kay?

Okay, that's all! Bye, tankheads! ^^
