Did some storyboard work on Hazbin season 2 episode3!
I was on funny face-drawing duty for Charlie’s descent into madness (Erika’s voice made it so much fun), and also tackled some juicy Pentious/Baxter lore >:)

HAZBIN HOTEL SEASON 2 IS OFFICIALLY OUT!
Now I can say that I worked on episode 01 as a storyboard artist! I had a lot of fun with the first song (Hazbin Guarantee 'Tust Us') and the Vee's meeting scene with Vox showing off his amazing drawing skills. Hope you've been loving it so far! <3

Whether in the forge or the field, Shard is always with a hammer in hand. On a better day, maybe she could talk business, but she’s just trying to keep it together at the moment.

Yeah, I find these kinds of things extremely weird. My life isn’t “news”; literally all I wanted to do was say I love my wife.
Is it just me or I find it rather off-putting that an animation news account is meddling into people’s personal lives that literally has nothing to do with animation related news or content?
