For such a smart pony, you should have thought before hand that as Owlicious you wouldn’t be able to use magic… All mane 6 body swapped with their respective pets.
People out there aren’t really a fan of the art/animation style of the upcoming Powerpuff Girls reboot.
I agree.
So as a little project, I took the first promo clip Cartoon Network had put out and decided to reanimate it from scratch.
Not sure if I did any better or worse, but at least it kept me from getting rusty.
Holy shit. That moment when a fan can do 50x better in a month for free than a professional studio can do in a year or two with millions of dollars :’)

I have no way to express my reaction to this right now beyond “what the holy fuck is this shit”
36,400,000. That is the expected number of intelligent civilizations in our galaxy, according to Drake’s famous equation. For the last 78 years, we had been broadcasting everything about us – our radio, our television, our history, our greatest discoveries – to the rest of the galaxy. We had been shouting our existence at the top of our lungs to the rest of the universe, wondering if we were alone. 36 million civilizations, yet in almost a century of listening, we hadn’t heard a thing. We were alone.
That was, until about 5 minutes ago.
The transmission came on every transcendental multiple of hydrogen’s frequency that were listening to. Transcendental harmonics – things like hydrogen’s frequency times pi – don’t appear in nature, so I knew it had to be artificial. The signal pulsed on and off very quickly with incredibly uniform amplitudes; my initial reaction was that this was some sort of binary transmission. I measured 1679 pulses in the one minute that the transmission was active. After that, the silence resumed.
One thing I do want to say is that I do believe in customer service. I’ve worked for the general public since I was 12, so making sure the customer is satisfied is something that I am deeply concerned for.
However, there is something I wish to point out about digital/online commissions. There is no product to return when something isn’t done correctly. There is nothing to exchange. The artist has created you something and it is yours to keep forever as long as you have the means to store it. Asking for a refund is basically paying someone to do a job, they do that job, then you tell them they didn’t do it hard enough so they aren’t getting paid. The work is there and done, it’s yours. They aren’t getting a product they can turn around and resell because it usually consists of characters that aren’t theirs to profit from. It’s just time and effort wasted on nothing where the consumer gets everything and the producer is literally left in the hole. Asking for a new picture instead of tweaking the existing one? That’s cutting the profits in half, and if they are fairly priced, at this point they are paying you to draw your commission by practically eliminating any profit margin.
I’m not trying to be accusatory and point fingers around or anything, but I ask you please take that into consideration when making a digital commission. As for artists out there, I highly recommend giving the customer water-marked WIPs in low-res formats when possible so that, at least, if the customer backs out at the last minute they aren’t left with a finished product for free.
