A little about this.
If you know this channel, it all started a few years ago when I started EG part 4. I wanted to introduce a new character. But I hit a wall trying to design her. That art style just didn't seem to work for what I wanted to do. After a while, I gave up and decided to try something. I started over trying to add more details to that style and ended up with something more original looking. A few months later, about halfway through, I realized how much I was enjoying working with something more original and detailed. I also realized how unhappy I was copying art styles for years and years, and how much I wanted to do something more my own.
The EG series was a meaningful story I wanted to tell, but I rushed a lot of it, took shortcuts, or just flat out didn't know how to do things. As much as those videos mean to me, they feel tainted by how immature and crappy of a person I was at the time. So I wanted to restart that story to tell a more personal story. And as early as just writing out the basic ideas, it ended up turning into something bigger and more meaningful to me.
I completely started over from nothing. I learned new ways to animate and new programs I've never used so I could add more details and effects. Even went back to the basics to relearn how to draw in general again.
That about sums up why this took so long. Also didn't help that I became more depressed and anxious, working through some things in my life. Also developed a problem finalizing things and ended up redoing a lot, countless times. Also plague. Also I'm just one person, doing a team's worth of work lol.
But now that I have a basic library of assets pretty much done, hopefully it shouldn't take as long for future things.
I know this probably isn't what you were expecting and you probably miss the old Fluffle Puff. I miss her too. But this is something I've been wanting to do for years. I hope you'll join me on this new ride. But if not, know that I will always appreciate you for being a fan and helping me get on this path to making something that means a lot to me.
