2019... i am forgotten
ill never forget you double king
I really like the Dead Rat Afterlife Megamix.
Felix has a patreon now
And a kid
I fail to see the problem for a short animation done by a guy who continues to work, get work, sell merchandise, etc. It's a flash in the pan, a very beautiful and appreciable flash, and that it isn't being discussed doesn't mean it isn't remembered. I was rewatching it myself a short while ago.
and he got several thousand patrons within a day of uploading the promotional video.
I forgot about him until I saw this thread.
Tainted Goods is probably still my favorite video of his.
ah yes, that one one of the comfiest threads i've even been on
You murdered me and stole my crown you fucking jackass
didn't he have to remake all the songs in double king from scratch because he didn't keep them as he went along while making the animation?
>That time we did a /tg/ style adventure for double king and DK kept inexplicably destroying kings much bigger and stronger than him and taking their crowns
do you have an archive of that thread?
i'll never forget
Fuck you double nigger I watched you last week
seconding
To be fair, it was a very good promotional video
Still the best Flash animator in the business
This should be it

Do you have the (you) edit
HE STOOD ALONE
a true hero
yes it was, we’re all very proud of him.
One dude made this in 3 years.
Ah, good times.
Brave boi!
*peeps*
I dont know if I should admire his honesty or feel disdain
>I dont wanna wageslave you guys gimme monies thanks
In the olden days, wealthy people would just pay artists to sit around and be artists. Maybe force them to design a statue or war machines every now and again like the Duke of Milan did to Leonardo de Vinci, but that still gave him plenty of time to loaf around in lady's underwear and devote time to being creative.
Patreon is just a decentralized version of the same system. INstead of relying on one wealthy asshole you can have scores of poorer assholes fund the mad ramblings of a slightly creative person who might every now and again produce something entertaining. Maybe that something is something they couldn't have done while also picking up cashier shifts at a grocery store.
And I will never forget it
I thought it was that he tailored the music specifically for the animation, and there was never any extended cut of each song to make a soundtrack out of.
HE HELD THE LINE!
Yeah but thats clearly Davinci doing submissioned requests. Felix claimed in his vid that he simply doesn't enjoy the submissions of companies and would rather focus more on the stuff he himself enjoys.
But I get that it is all voluntarily paid and I actually aspire being freelancing independent illustrator myself, so I kinda get the idea of the mindset, which I personally just grew out of. It just sounds extremely snobby when you basically claim all your personal art is great and submission art from costumers is oh so below you, but at least hes honest about it
>It just sounds extremely snobby
Confirmed for seething with jealousy.
Speaking as fellow Australian, the fact that our best living animator is reduced to living in the bush and making corporate promotional films for a living is a travesty. Our government gives far more money to far lesser artists than what Felix is getting from Patreon, he deserves every cent in my view.
Aye, he's a national bloody treasure.
Even Felix's Patreon video is more entertaining and fun than 90% of shit on Youtube

I always imagine this playing in the background

Based on this video alone this might be the first patreon I actually subscribe to.
that sounds about right. no wonder it took so long for the soundtrack to come out.
>getting mad at opinions
confirmed for faggotry
he deserves them surely, its payment from people who want his products.
But most great national treasure animators work occasionally for some corporation. But i guess its each their own business how much and how they get their money, I just disagree with the mindset in his case.
