Introducing Chompbot angry hungry angry little fellow, he's from a platformer I never finished called "Chomp Bot's Rampage" it was inspired by Kirby and NewGrounds Crunchdown game.

His got a special ability when ever he ate a certain food. When he ate something spicy he'd get flame breath, sour or dill electricity, sugary speed boost, water melon bullet seeds, saw chainsaw teeth, along side that his teeth were super dense and he could bite through just about anything, walls, coconuts, other robots etc. He also had a special gauge called the cardio gauge when ever it got full, he would have a heart attack and self destruct destroying every enemy on screen in a massive mushroom cloud.

This is Hot Head from the Empty Head series, as his name suggests he has quite the temper, he's very gruff and surly guy. He's a used flying craft salesman he owns his own lot where he sells flying cars and all sorts of futuristic hover crafts . He's friends with a mustachioed pair of wind up teeth named Mr.Chew Chew who sells toys at his very own business Chew Chew's Toys, Him and Empty Head don't get a long to well.

I also learned a few things about lighting, like that you can rotate the sun lamp... duh! I learned how to make the shadows darker. I gave Blender 4.2 a try but for some reason on my pc everything ends up all dotty weird...

iu_1241104_11413315.webp

I have no idea why this keeps on happening I've downloaded it twice and got the same results. . . I guess I'm not going to see the nifty new live raytracing features until Blender 4.2 exits the LTS version. Until then I'll have to keep on using the previous version.

It's Oh Boy Gal, a character for my Tribal Guys comic series. She first debuted in thepixelizer bytes comic number 7.


Oh Boy Gal is a hard core Disney fan and her voice sounds exactly like Mickey Mouse. She's a recluse that only leaves her house rarely because she spends all of her time watching her expansive collection of Disney Movies and shows.


But if you see her you better run because she's very violent and will attack you without question.

I made this character mostly because I can do a pretty solid Mickey Mouse impression and I needed a character that would sound like him.


Her design was heavily inspired by Deltarune and Mickey Mouse (of course.)

This is Gurdy the Turtle the main character in my old scrapped Pinball Turtles Game Project. It was a game inspired by Sonic Spinball and Goin Up, It was a vertical platformer pinball hybrid. Gurdy had the ability to throw a vacuum in a can that when thrown creates a vortex that sucks enemies in. And he had a geyser mine that suspended enemies in the air when touched.

His special was to shoot out multiple pin balls to hit the bumpers and targets to get more points.

He had a power ups as well when he grabbed the plunger it would give him a suction cup shell that allowed him to stick to, and climb up walls in pinball mode. Unfortunately I completely forgot what the second one was. Gurdy's name was inspired by the girder since he wears a construction hat, also the hurdy gurdy also played a role in inspiring his name. His shell is also made of metal so he wouldn't get hurt being launched everywhere.


When play testing the game the testers found the game to be really difficult so I decided to scrap it.

Just like Sonic Spin Ball it just wasn't fun to navigate something with such random physics.

Gurdy made a return in a Gif. I made for my Shuttle Switcher comic.



I really love this goofy little tortoise. Hopefully one day I could find a reason to use him again.

This is Empty Head's evil clone Dark Head, he has the exact same powers as him ,shape shifting into creatures and invisible constructs.


On one of Empty Head's adventures, he discovers a booth on the streets that can clone robots for pocket change he uses it which gives birth to Dark Head he's an imperfect clone which explains his eerie appearance, his black gems, glowing eyes, and pale skin. The model on the left is his a custom suit he designed for himself to differentiate himself from Empty Head.


The one on the right is his original form, due to his appearance people treated him like a monster which influenced him to become evil, since the cloning booth is that of a photo booth of the future the final product is super low in quality so all clones usually turn into dust in fifteen minutes.


Dark Head is no exception but like a virus he his code is rogue and can hack any cloning booth in town to regenerate after his time runs out, comically Empty Head doesn't even know that he even hates him or exists because every time Dark Head tries to attack him he runs out of time and turns into dust.

Wow! Incredible I never thought I would make so many!

iu_1229391_11413315.webp

The additions I added getting me up to 100 are these five, A family of four and the Red Skater.


Their names starting from left to right in order of the picture, there's Bobby the son, Maddie the daughter, Spore the mother, and Stanly the father, and last is Red Skater he's unrelated to family he's a skate boarding main character of this game I never completed and lost called Fun with Force it was my first ever project with a character editor and physics in Game Maker.


The family is the same kind of creature that red skater is so I simply just recycled the same model. Stanly's family originated as a family of Toads in my Adventures of Super Koopa Troopa and Friends forum comic (I redesigned them obviously) they had an encounter with the Tribal Guys in the comic and poor Stanly merely escaped with his life because the Tribal Guys were about to throw him into a volcano as a sacrifice.


They are quite a dysfunctional family. The kids get in arguments, the mother and father are pretty temper mental.

One time after the kids annoyed the father to the limit he decided to leave his family behind and drive away, this ticked off Spore and she ran so fast that she caught up to the minivan and scolded Stanly. Don't mess with the Mama lol.

Here are some elemental alien beasties they're from Parkour World, the world from my old comic Platformer Pests.

They were brought to Parkour World by the elemental aliens the Vimorphians. They were all intended to be mounts for the player to ride on. The orange one is Fritops the triceratops its got flame powers, the yellow one is an Ionodrag a dragon that breaths lasers, the gray one is Phase-it it can ghost through things, the green one is Smigezzy its a bird with wind powers, and last is a Cobbly Ham a rock pig.

I made these models mostly for my Tribal Guys comic to give Hunter Guy something actually to hunt.

I just completed modeling and rigging Stella today, she was the last of the group in my lineup of main characters from my Empty Head comic.

iu_1221204_11413315.webp

Marbletopia is also close to completion as well, I wanted to make it larger but it crashes my computer now and then.

As it's name suggests lots of the buildings are made of glass and jewels.

Razz (pink hair), Francess the Cat, and Jessica (blue hair) are also from this town too, but they never were really the main characters though, Razz used to be an antagonist of Empty Head's after Empty mistakenly landed on Razz's pet cat after a free fall. Jessica always hunts down Razz to bring her back home, since she's constantly running away, due to her angry and abusive mother Rebecka.


Razz used to be the main character of my comic Shuttle Switcher Dimensional Disaster that I completely deleted from my files and the net.


You can still read a fragment of it on the Way Back Machine (in the link above). There were up to 63 issues, I never really completed the series. It was a WAY too ambitious project featuring worlds from every comic and animation that I've ever made. I got seriously burned out, especially since it was hand drawn. No lie I think I went through a mental breakdown from the heavy work load I was working on the comic for three years, I just reached the breaking point and almost quit art entirely. I deleted and through away thousands of comics I drew in the span of my entire life. It even gave me PSTD or something I was actually scared to even pickup pencil, but I got over it eventually after I took a three month break.


Although I have to admit you didn't miss much of my child hood comics the characters were good in design and the comics were hilarious but the story structures were all garbage since I winged everything back then. Only until Dimensional Disaster I actually took the time and learned the basics of writing.

This is Tyler formerly known as Kyle (I renamed because I already have another character with the same name), he's one of my ocs named Empty Head friend, he's quite cowardly and can't fight, he has a trick top hat that can teleport him when he hops into it. He has no feet and hovers around like a UFO.

iu_1218615_11413315.webp

And here's Knuckle Head, he was originally a bad guy that bullied Empty Head and Maximorph in an amusement park. Fun fact one of the rides in that comic was named the Astro Blaster, which is now a real ride in Disney Land.

And I made that comic circa 2009.


After denying to battle him for an entire comic Empty Head eventually defeated him and then they became friends afterwards. Knuckle Head has a solid light hand over head which comes from his hat, I call it a handy cap.

It can also swap colors as well, each color has a different effect.

Red is fire, cyan is ice, orange is laser, yellow is electricity, purple gives him the ability to shape shift his hand, and pink gives him two hands.

iu_1218614_11413315.webp

I also got finished articulating Jewelia too.

Pretty much the main crew is almost complete the only character I have left to model is Stella Jewelia's best friend.

I've also been adding more buildings to their home town Marbletopia as well I can't wait to show those off!


Originally there was one extra friend that decided to cut out named Fat Head, mainly because I think he's offensive. I won't go into details . . .



In other news my Shuttle Switcher Ghost Galaxy comic is already at issue 30! Issue 31 one's coming out tomorrow, I plan on having the next few comics go into deeper detail about my character's backstories, which is the main reason why I decided to create Ghost Galaxy in the first place, to reintroduce the internet to my characters once more.

Just got finished rigging and modeling Maximorph Empty Head's side kick. Maximorph is a robot that can transform into inanimate objects only, he a pretty negative and whiny guy, although it's usually hard to tell with his smiley shaped buck teeth. He was originally inspired by Bobobo bo bobobo's Don Patch and Pac-man mixed together into one, but I redesigned him now he's shape more like a bean instead of a sphere, he even had pie eyes like Pac-Man as well and sported Don Patch's shoes and white gloves and limbs.

iu_1217068_11413315.webp

Unintentionally his feet look like the early Pac-man's design without boots. But hey why not keep a little Easter egg there? After all I am a Pac Man fan.

iu_1217070_11413315.webp

In other news I got started on a little town called Generic town, it's probably going to take forever to finish but when it's done I'll have a lot more locations to show off in my comics. As you can see I'm actually working on the Taco Bucket a rip off of Taco Bell, it first started off as a one liner from my comic Tribal Guys the Ghost of Eagle Guy.


Since it cracked me up so much every time I read it, I just had to make it another fake business in my collection of cheap knock off restaurants.


iu_1217071_11413315.webp

I'm also finished modeling Empty Head's sister Jewelia all I need to do now is give her joints so I can pose her.

Jewelia can be very bossy and loud since she originaly had sonic yells like Canary from DC comics.

I might change that later to make her more original. Her first design was just a girl version of Empty Head in the beginning but she went through several iterations to get to this point.


I also just hit 100 fans yesterday! Woo! Unfortunately since I've been bogged down making comics for Shuttle Switcher Ghost Galaxy and drawing fan comics in my What would your oc say on a talk show thread. I didn't have time to prepare something big for this moment oh well.

Anyway thanks a whole lot I super appreciate it!

Sorry for all of the dead air, lot's of things have been going on irl so I had no time for art. So far I've been experimenting with a more realistic look to my renders. I still have a lot to learn but at least now I have a drawing tablet so I can make my own custom textures now. Instead of just leaving things a solid blank color.


Here's the interior of Mc.Eatie's the most popular burger restaurant in Parkour World, a parody of Mc.Donalds in both shady character and unhealthiness, except Mc.Eatie's is far worse in every possible way.

iu_1212361_11413315.webp

It's Mac's favorite eatery (that's Mac below)

iu_1212363_11413315.png

He loves their burgers so much that he's dedicated his entire life to them. After all he was named after the Big Mac lol.

Mc.Eatie's is still unfinished though.

iu_1212362_11413315.webp

I'm also working on Fort Unbearable the strong hold of The Bad Guys, the owner is Baron Unbearable. It's surrounded by a sea of plasma (electric gas) trust me you won't want to touch that stuff!

iu_1212364_11413315.webp

iu_1212365_11413315.webp

Here's a picture of Baron Unbearable if you were wondering.

He's bad news he can control and conjure plasma, he's the final boss of Parkour World and Mac's boss since Mac is a video game minion.

iu_1212366_11413315.webp

There's also the Platlands as well, one of the hang out spots of the Platformer Pests.

If you spot the pattern I'm mostly working on backgrounds from Parkour World, Since they are some of the most unique ones I've ever made.

iu_1212367_11413315.webp

And lastly there's the Toy Block Jungle Island home of the Tribal Guys, You can see that al lot of my characters inhabit Parkour World.

After all it is a combination of all of my video game ideas and concepts all in one planet, it's home to The Platformer Pests, Ace Flecto and his friends, The Tribal Guys, and my Sonic spoof Radical Reserve. All characters with their own comic series that I've made in the past. Platformer Pests even got a video trilogy many moons ago.


There are about ten separate islands on this huge planet so far I have four locations in the making. Most of them aren't super necessary though so I'll start with the most used and important ones first. It would be cool to see all of them one day though.


Well that's what I'm up to in Blender, in other news my YouTube videos are actually growing in views after stagnation for an entire year, it was super fun making the last one. So fun that I feel tempted to make another one.

Now I've completely changed my mind about YouTube, I had a super sore spot about them hiding my videos from everyone else, even though I clearly made them public. It's like seeing the forest for the trees. I guess their algorithm isn't impossible to overcome after all. (let's see how long that lasts)


I still have way more views on Newgrounds though, and to stick to the man I referenced Newgrounds like three time in that video. But fear not Newgrounds is still my home base. It's the only platform where I can post everything I make.
