Happy New Year!


2013
I just wanted to wish everyone a Happy New Year! I hope everyone is healthy and safe in 2013 and all of the other platitudes people normally ascribe to the holiday :P .

Let’s make 2013 kinder for everyone in the world!

TARDIS vs. Dalek Salt and Pepper Shakers

I tried to take a photo of the Christmas present my dad got me in the snow, but, as it was freezing outside and I haven’t a tripod, this was the best I could manage.

It looks a bit like a colorized version of the classic Doctor Who series if you squint your eyes.

So, photography at 2 AM isn’t my forte, but the ceramic TARDIS and Dalek are rather adorable and being that they are ceramic I think I’ll set them on a shelf to admire rather than to season my meal. I’ll just need to invest it a shelf first :P . I’m delighted with the pair and now I need to find my Sixth Doctor action figure.

ThinkGeek is sold out so I’m not sure where my dad got them but I imagine it was Books A Million or the local toy store.

Unfinished Christmas Animation


Well, I didn’t have time for the Christmas animation this year. Too much time was spent elsewhere (commissions) and when I did have a chance to work on it the animation tools proved woefully inadequate. I’m including some stills (finished and unfinished) in this post in lieu of a finished project. It isn’t as good but I hope everyone likes them anyways :3 .

You can also see the animation of the house on my Youtube channel moongemdotcom.
It isn’t much but it was as far as I got using CreaToon 3.0 which along with Adobe Flash Professional CS6 is one of the easier (and yet also confounding) animation tools I’ve used :P .

That’s all! Happy Holidays! I’m going to start cooking and maybe turn on some Christmas music…or maybe work on some artwork…

Holiday Photo

Hey guys! I’ve been busy with commissions but I did manage to get the Christmas tree up. I think it looks pretty nice on the table. It’s a little short otherwise.

I did have plans to make a Christmas animation this year but most of the free tools are difficult at best so I don’t have very much completed. Just a few stills. I still might release something on Christmas Eve but I keep getting orders in even though I closed commissions down for the holiday :P .
**If you head on over to the patterns page there are a few additions to the patterns you can use for backgrounds. **

Animal Shelter

I made the image above, “Animal Shelter”, in October with the intention of giving it to an animal shelter. After working on it a bit I thought why give it to one shelter when I can give it to all shelters (well, all that visit my site).

This isn’t limited to shelters it can be used by individuals too! On your blog, wherever.

The catch? You can’t use it commercially, you can’t alter it, and you have to give credit.

No-kill nonprofit shelters are welcome to use this image on their site, flyers, shirts, stickers, or whatever they like.

Halloween 2012


Happy Halloween 2012


I wanted to make a Halloween postcard or greetings card people could send out. I’ve been rather busy. I managed to make the actual image I wanted and a design for a card only to find out that I made the wrong size (5″x7″). So, this months capstone is the image. I’m going to try to work a bit and create a 7″x10″ template for the card before Halloween. That way I can have it ready for Christmas at least.

Life has been a bit hectic here. There were more hospital visits. I got to ride in a taxi and an ambulance on the same day! At the moment I’m furiously working on commissions. When I get them all in one day they are all due on the same day!

I’ve made some images I’m really proud of! I’m working hard.
