What are YOUR thoughts on Geoweasel?

Regarding material for the revamped Geoweasel site, I'm working on the About page and I'd like to have a little..."testimonials" section, if you will, with people's comments about my series, Geoweasel (mostly from other animators, cartoonists, creators, etc.). So if you have just a few thoughts or a mini review about the Geoweasel cartoons in general, let me hear 'em, whether they're good or bad! You can post them here, or send them to my email: niko@cartoon… Continue

Going to see MM39 in New York tomorrow

Tomorrow I'm traveling up to New York for the Meth Minute 39 Retrospect screening. It's the first public cartoon-related event that I've ever gone to, so I'm pretty psyched. Hopefully I'll return with some photos and other souvenir-like things. If anyone else is going, let me know! Continue

WANNA DO SOME VOICE ACTING?

I'm entering an upcoming local animation festival, and I need some voice actors to help out. I need responses as soon as possible, because the deadline for MY submission is Feb. 21, which gives me a little more than a week to make a full 4-minute short. I need one guy and one girl to voice these two characters. Zane, the guy, should have a medium tone, casual voice. Flick, the girl, should… Continue

I've Been Pooped

Youtube Pooped, that is. While looking for clips of Chowder and El Tigre on Youtube, I found...absolutely nothing except for videos that were just segments of the cartoons sped up, slowed down, or screwed with in… Continue

ATTN: Cartoonists/Artists!

For the credits in Geoweasel's final episode, I would like to display some fanart along with it. If you're interested, just draw a piece of your favorite character, favorite scene, or anything Geoweasel-related. If you're interested but don't know what Geoweasel is...well, give it a look! It doesn't have to be fancy; you can just do a sketch if you want. The only restriction is that you'll have to shrink it down to 250x375 pixels or less. If you can't, I can ad… Continue

Nintendo GW Lite!

I owe Tara a lot for always finding totally awesome stuff. If you've seen her sweet custom Wii you'll see why! Because of that I… Continue

A Kinda Brief History Of Geoweasel

Geoweasel's been through a lot of changes over time, like celebrities who insist on getting plastic surgery long after their careers have died. I like to think people care about this sort of thing, so just humor me, okay? Click the thumbnails to enlarge the picture for each year.

Happy Birthday To Me!

Yeah, I'm one of those guys who has to go around hinting at people that it's my birthday. Well, actually, today I got a lot of birthday wishes, from people who I'd never expect to know, even. Got a lot of birthday wishes here on the internet so far too. I even wore my Shin Chan "Ass Dance" shirt to school today and never even got in trouble. In my school, that's a miracle; a… Continue

Don't Make A Webcomic!

Strong Bad Emails have been on a good streak as of late, but today's is probably the most topical for someone like me, or anyone who reads/makes webcomics. Plus, half the things he mentions in her… Continue

I'll Be Gone...

My goal was to create an animated short specifically to be on Channel Frederator before episode 100 if it was good enough, but there's no way I'll have something done at this point. I'm kind of taking a leave from the internet entirely, because I've got so many personal problems going on, I need less to think about. I need some time to look at my life, get things in order...that sort of stuff. My battles with depression and anxiety are becoming worse and more difficult, and I can't keep up with… Continue

GEOweasel Goes A Bit Blue

I posted this on my regular production blog, and I thought it might be worth putting here as well. As I plan to make a GEOweasel cartoon containing scenes from unfinished episodes, I can't help looking back on episodes that never got past the concept stage. Some of them I've mentioned before, such as "Night Of The Goth," "A Holly July Christmas," and "The Firing." But there was one episode in particular that I started planning and stopped because it was taking a nose dive into the "blue material… Continue
