The mythologized "cool nintendo" starts and ends around the time they'd sell you a whole computer with detailed instructions on how to make games

On the road once again

Buster Keaton was born 130 years ago today, on October 4, 1895

This started as an appreciation for Bob Clampett giving Daffy silly, oversized outfits early on, and ended as an ode to his ephemeral strength of combining cute-'n-sadistic. #looneytunes #daffyduck #bobclampett #art

Today I'm releasing an early prototype of Nintendo's "Joy Mech Fight" (FC), from over a year before its release! This build, then named "Battle Battle League" (FDS), was created for the 1992 Nintendo-Dentsu Game Seminar. Links are below! hiddenpalace.org/Battle_Battl...

bob clampett toons just hit so different. his use of closeups in particular is so distinct. also are you kidding me with this shot from "what price porky" which just blew me away

The Blackbird is a simple, masterful gem of stop motion. Only Norman McLaren could've made it. But the film took him a decade to figure out. We explore the story, and the personal struggles, behind the work: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/a-little-p...

quick cover wip 🔊

I forget how into shit I get whenever I'm pitching something. Was slugging around some ideas with my roommate earlier today and I've just felt feverish from acting out a bunch of really fun cathartic/visceral nonsense, too much energy exerted all at once lmao

I think if I had discovered landscape photography earlier in life I might have become a geologist. The eroded rock layers of the desert southwest are so fascinating to me. #timothykeeneyphotography #photography #landscapephotography

The first of Irv Spence's brilliant animation in the cartoon, which includes the earlier clip.

Moved to a new setup, but was working on this prior - maybe you guys'll like it! #prismcreativeart | #art | #blender3d | #b3d | #3d | #artist | #fanart | #bettyboop | #maxfleischer

Birthday doodle for my good pal @hyperchaotix.bsky.social. The last time I drew his critter and mine together was quite a while ago, so I thought it'd be fun to redo the premise. #cartoonist, #sketch, #artist

The great Walt Kelly, creator of the satirical masterpiece POGO, was born today in 1913. I’ve gotten the pleasure of seeing some of his originals in person, and his linework is just so beautiful.

You know if you think hard enough the fumo design template that was iterated on top of further by groups like Makeship and Youtooz is a pretty good demonstration of late stage capitalism

People are posting films so here's a few that speak to me Modern Times (1936) Metropolis (1927) The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1920) Steamboat Bill Jr. (1928) Forbidden Zone (1980) Fantasia (1940) Alice in Wonderland (1951) Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986) Fritz the Cat (1972) The Errand Boy (1961)

99% certain if SMiLE came out as intended and uncompromised back in the 60s it would've probably been my favorite out of the Beach Boys' discography bar none As is, the sessions are fantastic and it's allowed my mind to wander and fill in the gaps.

quick doodle of a game critter, if you know him you're real

There was a really good period of time where if you wanted a cartoon game you got a cartoonist to make the art for it and for some reason this doesn't compute with people anymore as things have gotten way too shortsighted and specialized

had to get this out of my system

hire cartoonists for your video games again please

new bubsy game looks like it was made by someone who has never watched a cartoon pre-1980 in their entire life and I will not elaborate further

Today is the birthday of cartoonist & animator Otto Messmer (Aug. 16, 1892-Oct. 28, 1983), most known for creating Felix the Cat for the Pat Sullivan Studio. He not only worked on the cartoons, but also the Felix the Cat newspaper comic strip & comic books.
