I Try Not to Think About It.

Oh Edd…  I couldn’t imagine…  It’s just too soon, Edd…  I’m glad you did what you loved, Edd.  I may not have been an avid follower, but I did indeed enjoyed your cartoons.  I’m even happy to know you a bit when I first learned to make flash cartoons.  I feel real bad I haven’t done anything for you in hopes that you feel better months ago.  An increasing lesson to learn to really value the people you like, now, more than ever.

Here’s to you, my friendly animator, to all your work, friends, fans and everyone you have touched.

On Sunday the 25th of March 2012, Edd Gould passed away after a six year long battle with cancer. He will be greatly missed.

I glanced at this and expected this was gonna be a gag like I’ve seen on Twitter these past weeks. Sadly, there was no such punchline to be found.

I’ve semi-known Edd since the Lock Legion days and had met Edd a few occassional times at Newgrounds Meets and assorted expos and he was a nice chap. As an animator somewhat lacking in motivation and ideas, I was always pretty jealous of his ability to get shit done, even when shit was getting done to him. He was a credit to the flanimator community and he will sorely be missed.

I thought this was going to be a joke too when I saw it posted on Facebook. Even after watching, I still thought maybe it was just some thing that I wasn’t in the loop on, but sadly, it does not appear that way. I didn’t really know Edd at all, never talked to him or anything, and while I wasn’t an avid watcher of his cartoons, I have seen quite a few here and there because he made a good name for himself. While there is sadness in any death, it always gets me when a cartoonist/animator dies. Just by being in the same field, sharing a love for the same thing, it feels like losing a brother.

Strange set of doodles I always do when I stare at a blank canvas.

My first sculpted model finished with Mudbox.  My first 3D model done ever really.  I’m kinda happy about it, even if it came out wonky in areas. 

Done this between two 3D classes.  I think I neglected alot of other school work to work on this.  Took me soo long to learn to do alot of stuff.

His eyes took on a weird pattern, that was unintentional.  I don’t know what caused that really…

I kinda wanna upload this school project I did(Although the sound is kinda messed up, and so is the format).  It’s me talking to me about being stupid and just procrastinating by playing games.  Which is something I do, ALL THE TIME. 

HOOORAY FOR STUPID

I’ve been playing alot of Phoenix Wright lately. 

Why do I love it so much??
