Sonic And Sprites Suck Dicks

Posted by Gerkinman - May 25th, 2008


Another week goes by and another week without the release of the final Ultimate Asparagus cartoon goes along with it. Its coming its coming, just keep waiting, not long now.

However, looking ahead, as hinted in my last Journal, Nimbin is officially coming back. I wont be giving anything about stories away, but i will say that this will not be a serial, some of these Nimbin cartoons will be very short, others will be longer, most will be around the 3 minute mark at most. They will focus on different characters (much as the original comics did) and seperate stories. It might take a bit of adjusting to get used to the new art style and character designs, but im sure for most people (Since Nimbin wasnt all that popular originally anyway) it wont be a big deal. Nimbin comics are also being written for a graphic novel release, much like the shorts these will focus on completely different stories and different characters, two are already written and only one contains any of the original cast. I was also going to originally recruit some of Newgrounds "talent" but after Egoraptor shooting me down because i dont like his other stuff and hes not interested in doing anything "different" i once again decided to do all the male voices myself. Ive come a long way since the original series was done and you can expect to hear a more old skool Ren and Stimpy approach to the voices rather then the more common "annoying and fast paced" voices that seem to be popular at the moment. So if any girls out there can act without sounding like the kind of girls found in the typical anime dub feel free to contact me. So uhhh... heres some concept art.

Yes, i am blending real people in with my animation, and no, its not like anything you have ever seen on Newgrounds before.

OMFG THERES NO SONICZ HERE~! YOU LIARZ!

Gerkinman, nobody cares, stop trying.

Aww, im crushed, i really am :(

Seems VERY cool. I don't think I've ever seen any of your work before, but now I'm very interested. I hope to watch whatever you've submitted now, and can't wait to see what you make in the future.

Ive been around for a long time now, ive never been what you would call popular tho.

It doesn't seem that bad.

You don't have to, but expect something to go wrong so you won't freak when you do.

Things never go perfect with this kind of work, ive been around long enough to know.

Ur recent 2008 animations deserve much higher scores

I am not sure exactly what too say but good luck man and do what you do best

Sonic used to be cooler, but after Sonic Adventure 2 he started majorly sucking. I mean, what was up with Secret Rings? That was total crap.

Ultimate Asparagus sounds cool. I like that concept art.

Okay to be honest with you, I've seen your work and I'm not a huge fan of it. It's not that you're bad though! You're an awesome animator! You have a very unique style, and it's very cool; it just doesn't click with me for some reason.

Nice Pic BTW, love the style. I think I will check out that cartoon looks like it will be cool.

Everybody has there own individual taste. I dont like alot of peoples flash cartoons either.

What are they smokin' there?

Joints?

i like that character with the long spagetti arms. Seems like he'd be fun to animate

Gerkinman? Yeh, im animating him curb stomping someone for another toon right now.

boy that image looks crap.

STFU!! SONIC AND SPRITES OWN YOU!!! HOW COULD YOU SAY SUCH A NUB COMMENT!!! I HATE YOU!! I HOPE YOU SUFFER ETERNAL DAMNATION!!!

I'm kidding. Don't ask, I'm really bored.

the image is shit.

The image is -the shit-.

Wow, that art there is amazing, can't wait to see what it looks like in motion.

Nor can i

Yeah no I'd totally like to be involved with you after you come to me as condescending as possible telling me you'll "test my skill" as if I need to prove myself to you. If you came to me and actually told me you wanted me to voice a male role in your cartoon I would have probably said yes because honestly I was surprised and flattered that you were making an effort to communicate with me. Why is it so hard for you to just... ask for help? Why do you need to act like the authority, like your project is above anything I've ever done? Now instead of civilly understanding my stance privately, you decide to take a passive aggressive stab at me publicly because I refused to have my "skill tested." You are truly a coward, Gerkinman, and I'm rapidly losing respect for you.

I dont know why you would respect me in the first place, i never asked for any nor did i ever strive for any, from you atleast. And yeh, i still dont consider you a good voice actor, oh sure ive heard numerous voices, some quite difficult to pull off, but im yet to hear any actual ACTING to go along with those voices. This isnt necessarily your fault, its merely due to the projects you have so far undertaken, so dont look at it as a personal attack. And after thinking about it for a while merely having your name attached to the project would inflate my score a good .50, the last few years ive been the kind of person to try to get recognised for what i myself has done, my days of attaching popular names to my projects are over. So i think its for the best this way. As for the making this public, all i said is you didnt want to be a part of it because its not your cup of tea, big whoop, what, you think its going to hurt your popularity or something?

why can you post frontpage so often?

To make up for all my flash that dont get front page. :P

Heh heh, leave it to Gerkin to piss people off about lies. Can't wait for the Asparagus.

Wait what lies?

The imp is a pimp
gone in a pinch
in the air like a Finch
then on your head like a chimp
let it be known hes a grinch
causing problems on the brink
of destruction in a glimpse
thats imp on the print
cause we're limp
now lets drink.

Hammi the poet
I didnt know it

I do not see how upfuckedly animated cartoons that move slowly and uninspirationally will get better than for example Alvin Earthworms SMBZ series.
I yawn my ass to death with flashes that have author drawn pictarz creatively moving around, unless the flash is not about action.

That made no sense but okay.
