Hello cool dudes and neato girlies.
I wanted to let you all know, if you happen to be interested, you can help support me in making more stuff, more often.
I recently relaunched my Patreon after a long hiatus. Here's an example of some stuff going on there-
"Ruby Flowe's Mandatory Journal". This is an ongoing series of "journal entries" from Ruby Flowe, providing backstory to The Finger Eater series from Ruby's perspective. Each entry comes with an illustration (the first of which is seen above) to match. This series is a result of support from Patrons, and access is unlocked at the Green Tier.
Illustrations are uploaded on my Patreon a week before everywhere else, and the text/story/context for the illustrations remain Patreon exclusive. If you'd like to support me and get this reward, and other neat rewards, you can check out the different tiers here: https://www.patreon.com/TheFabs
:)
I know every artist on earth has one of these kinda posts, so pls forgive.
Thank you for reading and for your consideration.
Peace <3

Just thought I'd keep Newgrounds followers updated on some kinda recent sketches.
Also, I'll be starting a Patreon soon, as I'll be reigniting my animation and finally continuing work on The Finger Eater Chapter 2.
I really don't know how many people actually care about an episode 2 at this point, but I want to do it for my own entertainment and passion for the story and characters, the fans who've stuck with me, and for the people that have lent me their voice talents.
It's going to be bigger, scarier and more detailed than I could have ever imagined back in 2015 when I made episode 1. And a bit more expensive, too. U o U
I've come a long way I think, but of course still have a lot of room to improve. I want to really take art and music seriously and not just have it be a hobby. I've worked very hard to improve my art and music skills and that will all play into making this episode as good as it can be.
TFE is not the one-off story I originally intended it to be back when I first started work on it. I've created a world now and put characters and events in it that I truly care about. The first episode could still be a one-off thing. It delivers a simple message, easy to digest and has just enough mystery to keep it kinda creepy and open-ended.
But the more I worked on episode 2, the more I realized I wasn't just continuing the series for the sake of having more content, I was really starting to get passionate about it all. I wrote a giant detailed script, talked about it with voice actors and friends, added MORE to the script and made more drafts to perfect it, made storyboards, worked on character designs in a more refined and appealing style that fits my tastes better, created a melancholic "pop" song with Caxx ( https://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/767660 ) for one of the main characters, Alice, to sing in the episode, as she's a famous singer in this world - and I went on and on with great excitement all the way.
Life and other collaborative projects put a hold on the process for a while. Now I'm diving back in.
TLDR: The Finger Eater became a lot bigger.
I hope you'll join me on this adventure in finishing the episode by considering Patreon support, when the time comes. If not, I appreciate you just checking out my stuff anyways.
Love-
fabs

I'll be more active on here with general text updates on projects and such since Tumblr is becoming even worse than it already was. I just don't wanna be on the dumb site anymore, it was just a good place to easily post big blocks of text when I needed.
Respect to NG for always remaining a place for freedom of expression.
That's it for now, love u, bye -

Dear Newground friends, please check out this new short song I made with Caxx (https://caxx.newgrounds.com/), who did the wonderful singing.

I'm working really hard on Finger Eater 2. The first episode is getting harder and harder to look at since I've imporved my skills.
I need to update the series ASAP.
Hope you're doing well. Stay scary.
