The walk cycle for Ert the Raven, who'll be appearing in my Viktor the Fox cartoons. I deliberately made his walk unnaturally level, since it suits his personality. (Music from TikTok's library, I don't remember who did it). Patreon - Patreon.com/jfrancisfright #Animation #IndieAnimation #Furry
Gotta love a good ol' cartoon wild take! I gotta start doing more of these 🤪 My studio: @frightycat.bsky.social #Cartoon #Animation #IndieAnimation
I love paper. I love pencils. I love ink and paint and brushes and water pots, I love graphite dust and cutting mats and tape spools, I love stains and smears and drips and tears. I can never give these things up, I love them all so much 🖤

A silly old sketchbook comic of Stanley & Menlo practicing their routine. Juggling is hard, especially when you partner is focused on other things... 🤡🍆🎃 Support the show - patreon.com/jfrancisfright #Animation #IndieAnimation #Comic #TransArtist
Paolo is a brilliant artist & a consummate performer, but he's also self-consumed piece of shit who doesn't deserve Stanley. This type of callousness is fundamental to his character, and the ramifications it has on his partner are something I plan on exploring a lot in the series.
