[Blockhead: Episode 9]

Smoother, Sharper, Funnier.

Newgrounds is broken, I can't vote 6.

The-Swain responds:

Bahaha, always a laugh riot, this one.

We'll trade 6's one day, when they fix it :D

[LL - Rewrite]

Wow..

You guys actually accomplished something awesome in a collab, about damn time.

5/5

Wonchop responds:

Thanks :3

Heya

It saddens me that something like this gets daily feature.

I mean, your work is good, but it is extremely quick, and not much thought is put into it, ok, there is some thought in it, like the fact that they are teeth, they do human things, yet we are constantly reminded that they are teeth through humour (gold capped tooth becomes king etc), but it is really simple animation, and doesn't make you laugh that much.

The visuals are simple, the action is even more simple, yes it gets such a high score from what? A few witty lines.

Ugh.

I really am just bitter at my own animation that i've worked on for months crapping up because of some sound problems, and coming on here to see an animation that could be done in a night get such a high following.

All that being said, i actually like the series for some reason, but the feelings get mixed because of the way that everyone else reacts to it. I can't blame the author for that.

The commentary is probably the reason for that, it's very personal, and it's not a button which is hidden at the bottom of a menu, it's right there at the end of the movie, and I look forward to hearing it.

I look forward to seeing the next toof episode, just please, spend like, a week on it, get more than one joke per episode out, do something that involves the whole mouth? Braces or something, i dunno, don't just churn these out so quickly.

Give us a yell through the Newgrounds chat thing if you want to talk more.

MACception responds:

I can understand what you're saying man, but, like you said, can you really blame me?

I've spent months on animations of mine before, but, sometimes you cant put a ton of gloss on shit, and expect it NOT to be shit. My first animation took 3 months to do, and it got like a 2.6...This one took a total of 4 days (2 HARD days, and 2 just for VA and stuff) and it gets a 4+ I'd be pissed too man.

BUT! You gotta look at it man, do you like the animation? Does it suit its purpose? I've tried the whole art thing, and I know I suck at it...So I use what I can to do as good as I can. I'm sorry you dont think I deserve this, and I may not, but I'm doing what I can...

I guess a Daily Feature award comes with a price... :(

[StarCraft: Alliance]

YES YES YES YES!

Incredible work Log, you are getting heaps better man, come on MSN more often, don't be ashamed! embrace your dial-up-ness!

That was incredible, i loved it, it was beautiful!

Your voices are even sounding cool now ;)

Very good man, incredibly good, the space fighting, the ground fighting, the whole starcraft thing, yeah, awesome! Another front page under your belt too i guess! Help me out with some of the sound problems i've been having on mine.

LogFish responds:

Cheers bro :)
Was hoping the voices would turn out alright eventually, and they have - yay! Now I don't feel like I sold out or anything either.
Well I'm just not using MSN anymore really! As you may have noticed. It's probably easier to keep in touch via email if there's anything in particular you want help with :) I'll try and come on, but no promises! I'm in a big productive phase at the moment, and MSN seems like a waste of time.

[StarCraft: The Return]

WIN!

You win sir!

Good work man, im pretty pissed that you have pumped out like 4 animations before i even get my second one out.... You need to come on MSN more often.. Friggin kiwi starcraft.. omg.

you win sir.

LogFish responds:

Well, not using MSN is a handy wee way to make more time to get things done! Kiwi StarCraft, heh, awesome.
I'm sure being semi unemployed now is helping - this is a clear use of studyleave for studious purposes.

[Blockhead: Episode 7]

Again, amazing.

Good work Mr Swain once again.

Join us all at TheSwain's site, and chat about Blockhead, Timesquad, and Michael Swain's other up and coming animations in the forums!

The-Swain responds:

Haha, and I didn't even have to plug anything.

Still waiting on a classic yet original space adventure, which we will hopefully get to experience soon, eh?

[StarCraft: Reconnoiter]

10/10

Incredible.... you have been a busy little kiwi since we last spoke! That was brilliant, loved it, the whole fighting scene, wow, nice man, i assume you are online now, since your movie only just came out and you are still giving feedback on reviews, add me to msn if you have it, its the same as the email address i use.

Bloody good job!

FRONT PAGE IT!

LogFish responds:

I can't beleive how well this has done! I'm so happy n stuff. It's mad. MAD! I want so badly to just get cracking making the next one but I am trying to resist until university is done - it's all work until it's over now.

I need to download the new MSN before it works again or some crap but I'll do that now and add you tonight.

The accent didn't cripple it either which is nice! Maybe you could get away with doing all the voices yourself in your one - I seem to have managed this time, and it really is SO MUCH EASIER and you can get it exactly how you want. Gives you a nice insight into how directors get so stroppy doesn't it, heheh.
