AKS9's News

Heya newgrounds!

So I've decided to revive my presence here on NG. It's crazy how much this place has evolved since I used to be active on here.
I just wanted to say hi, and that I'm going to start posting my drawings and paintings here again. I'm not really animating much anymore, I'm set on the goal of becoming an illustrator/painter and am putting all my effort-eggs into that basket.

I consider NG to be my roots, and it's a shame not to spend time here anymore. I hope you like some of the new drawings ~

A big thank you to everyone who has left feedback!

Hello again Newgrounders!

Fua, it's been around three years since my last post here. In the mean time I've given animation a rest and have been focusing mostly on drawing, but also on another project, for which I now need your help.

Me and a friend got working on a game for Newgrounds' "Power of Three" game-jam back in 2009, which we didn't manage to publish in time. We've been working on it sporadically since then, and after a big push during the past few months, it's now almost finished. Before we release it and search for a sponsor, we need some people to help test the gameplay.

The game is a fast-paced base-defence arcade shooter with lots of frame-by-frame animation I put a lot of love into and some great electronic music, custom-written for this game, thanks to D3vilSheep.

It's feature-finished, we just need people to test out the difficulty, to see if its too easy or too hard, and balance gameplay on each level.

- If you'd like to be a tester, and get notified by email whenever we update the game, let me know in the comments or via PM. Serious testers are Seriously appreciated.

- If you don't want to be a tester but are willing to give the game a quick test and leave us some feedback, I'd be super grateful.

THANK YOU!

Just uploaded a new animation.. this thing has been in the works since before Snowbot, and I've been dieing to get it out here.

Basically I was approached to do this thing almost a year ago and I've been slowly working on it since october, finished it in march..... coming up with ideas for it was so damn draining. I hope it was worth the effort.

Anyway please take a minute to watch it and let me know what you think

I'm working on my own personal flash which will be very different from all this other stuff I've been doing so I can't wait to finish that...

I was also thinking of working on power of three but I am pretty drained at the moment but if anybody is interested don't hesitate in sending me a note

My Robotic Inspiration


Posted by AKS9 - February 18th, 2009


I found this awesome site called http://www.myoats.com/ and i thought I'd share

You can basically draw these really cool symmetrical shapes. There are very few tools and you can only use two colours: background and foreground, and the only way to erase stuff is via undo. There isn't an eraser tool. But these limitations actually put you in a different mindset while making your drawings and sort of free you up to try new stuff and I dunno just experiement with the tools you do have, which are basically varying line widths and opacities, and some basic shape tools. Some of the stuff people have made on the website is fking aweomse

It's very cool so check it out if you like drawing or doodling!

Hi Newgrounds and world.

Check out my newest Flash, "Tea Leaf Dancers". Was made for Flash-class at school, I tried something a bit weird and experimental without going all abstract and surreal or anything like that (which I've never done but it's probably what I would do if I truly did something "experimental" - everything you make is an experiment of some sort anyway)

Music is by Flying Lotus and it syncs well so if you like that kind of thing check it out! linky:
