I noticed I hadn’t posted to the journal are of DA since 2015... Meh. Been posting artwork instead . So keep up with that I guess

For those into the more "adult" aspect of Neurotically Yours, apparently there's been a slew of "Erotic Germaine Fan Art" flooding certain sites. Back in the day it would kinda irk me, but the internet is what it is, so it's out there for those who are into that sort of thing. Besides, even pervy fans of the show deserve some sort of acknowledgement for the time they put into their artwork. After 13 years of Foamy, it's pretty cool that people are still creating their own Foamy & Germaine art. Even if it's NSFW. What sites!? Where can I see this stuff!? I'm not linking those type of sites here. I'm sure a few web searches will get you your results. Keep in mind, it's ADULT stuff. So if that's not your thing, skip it.

Some nifty new artwork has been added to the Foamy Fan Art Section! jimathers.deviantart.com/favou…
It's always cool to see how others interpret NY characters. From the sad, lamenting doodles, to the large breasted paintings, It's awesome that people still care about the series and characters.
So a humble note of thanks from me to everyone who still gives a damn

For those into the whole Foamy thing, I set up a digital comics shop at Gumroad : gumroad.com/illwillpress
(If you make comics too, it's actually a super simple way of distributing them. So look into it.)

Other than the usual Foamy cartoon, I've been trying to put together another Foamy series in an effort to expand the whole Neurotically Yours universe. I was thinking of doing a hand-drawn, scanned, then animated type approach, but I'm not sure how "time efficient" that would be. I really dislike drawing on a tablet because I don't get that "real paper feedback". It takes me an hour to do in the computer what I can do on paper in 10 minutes. (Though I taped some paper to my tablet to give me some "real-world" feel and it's helped.) I just draw so damn fast that most of the programs I use can't keep up, they screw up my lines, and then I have to go back in and tweak every freaking aspect of a simple drawing. Any suggestions on a program that can keep up with a really fast brush stroke and maintain quality?

Finished the Foamy Kickstarter for the new DVD, which is now available at the illwillpress shop, working on new toons and contemplating another version of Neurotically Yours. Maybe some different characters or something. In the sketching mode right now, so nothing anytime soon. Other than that, creating artwork has been slow as usual. Animation eats up all my time.
