I made a silly little gif. in Opentoonz. And then I learned that you can animate gif.s in Gimp.

It's about Sombrero Ghost annoying poor Chomp Bot.

I don't think it's good enough for the portal so I'll just put it here.

I made four more character models of my characters

This is Psychs he's infamous for inventing cruel and unusual weapons. His primary weapons are an incendiary sniper riffle and a bear trap on a chain. He's a stick man from my Sticks and Pwns comic.

This is Steve the heavy artillery he's got a revolver, hand grenades and even a rocket launcher.

This is pound the pound sign he has the power to turn people into numbers.

This is Deluxe a mysterious robot super heroin from my Turbo Surge comic. Read more about her here.

Now all of Jet's crew is complete! Yay!

Apparently I forgot to update my drivers, now Blender 4.2's live ray tracing is in my grasp. That means better looking renders.

Here's a side by side comparison.

OLD

NEW

The colors look more vibrant.

Here's the Tribal Guys village in blender 4.2.

In other news I've been texturing my models like crazy. Since I found a free texture resource site called texturecan.org. Here's a few previews.

One of the ones I'm the most proud of is Dr.Toasterhead.

Here's Jet the Silhouette textured I think out of the rest he looks the most realistic.

And here's Mac

I've got a lot of work cut out for me since I have 100+ character models to texture so far. The most challenging ones are Axe Thundercage and Orbo so far since they have lots hair. So far pbr textures don't look very convincing when it comes to hair, I'll have to give them straight up hair or go for something a bit more stylized.

I just added a new page to my neocities site, it's a link hub to all of my comics it even explains them a bit and shows off the single best issue in each.

I even added another fan art from @Fianurart on the fan art page

There's also art from

@NecroNovaNG

@Sceptordpinoy

@AverageA08

@Didjargo

@dupreedraws

If you want to be on the fan art page too simply draw a pic of one of my characters post it to the art portal and credit me with an "@thepixelizer" in the description I'll get a notification and I'll tack it up on my sight if it's appropriate.

Or you can just send me a pm here.

In other news Platformer Pests Finally returns in comic form! This issue in particular was made right on time for the Newgrounds Spooktacular! I almost missed it entirely. Give it a read here!

I'm also still looking for voice talent for my upcoming Shuttle Switcher animated short, if you're a voice actor or actress feel free to pm me. The details can be found at the bottom of my newgrounds profile, and on the collabinator or help wanted board.

This one I actually textured with pbr! You may have seen all my other ones, I left all of the textures blank mostly because free texture hunting on search engines is next to impossible with how lame the search engines are these days, and I didn't have a tablet to draw them myself, I painted the texture for her hair and shirt since I recently got two tablets now.

This is Dot the Get Away Driver her hearse is always there whenever Jet the Silhouette's group of rogues needs to get away from the cops fast. She has super strong kicks and the ability to jump insanely high. She brandishes a noose in battle and can hang you from anywhere.

This is a secret Santa drawing I did with her and her hearse for Bountyspecialtist a few Christmases ago.

Here's Dot and the gang. I already have a model for Jet, I can't wait to see them all together one day in 3D.

Here's another render if you were wondering what was on her shirt it's her iconic hangman Tee, since she's a stick figure that hangs sticks it suits her well.

I just finished my 3d model of the Shoot First Saloon, based off of my Platform Racing 2 level. It was a mini game stage where you had to shoot your opponent into a trap, then run to the exit.

After Platform racing 2 got the axe due to the death of Flash, I then remade it in another piece of lost media Manyland.

The last traces of it can be found in the following YouTube video.

Here's the interior, I want to add more stuff on the inside since it's look'n a bit empty but here's the basis.

It's apart of my Generic City model that I'm working on. As it's name suggests it will be a generic city that I can use as a background for my comics and videos since all of my other backgrounds aren't really down to Earth and fantasty-like (other than the city that Mallet Man's from.) It would be less distracting to look at. And feature environments that people can relate to.

I made a slide show for my art on my Neocities site. Simply click the red arrows on the sides of each picture to go back and forth, making a website is pretty fun! I highly recommend it.

I've been at work on it for a few months now, it's still not finished but at least it's presentable now. Here's a link.

Hey guys I found a copy of the old Tribal Guys comic on the wayback machine!

This was the first of three Tribal Guys comics I made before I deleted my account and all of my art files.

The original comic was full of dark humor as you can see, and it obviously wasn't in 3d like it is now.

Do you think I should redo this one in 3d? It's way too low quality to upload to the portal that's why it's in this news post.

If you liked that check out more Tribal Guys here!

That's right I finally stopped focusing about how much Shuttle Switcher Gougemon disappointed me, and I finally started another animated project!

It's also on You Tube as well it's gotten way more views than anything else I've done on there!

Please subscribe to my YouTube Channel as well, I'm super struggling to even get seen on there.

I usually only start playlists on here when my comics reach up to ten issues but since I made an animated short for Tribal Guys I think that's more than enough to qualify for it's own playlist.

Check out the comic series to see more of these lunatics and their hilarious misadventures.
