Erjansk is an upcoming indie animated show with no budget, but a passionate team of small, talented creators. It is a stop-motion horror comedy mixed with 3D, 2D and live-action elements. 🩸Support the show and its creator:<a href="https://buymeacoffee.com/victoransxd" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">https://buymeacoffee.com/victoransxd</a> Done as part of my Master's degree thesis film at Polish-Japanese Academy of Information Technology, Faculty of New Media Arts, Graphics, Multimedia Communication in February, 2026 Upcoming Pilot’s description:A man seeks stability in an announcement board with job offers and ends up discovering something seemingly too good to be true. This leads to him finding out the real lengths he needs to take in order earn the pay: “At The Meatgrinders’“ cook vacancy interview requires him to cook meals that utilize “family” recipes to prove his culinary worth… easy enough? Show premise:The story of Erjansk is about consequence of unlimited power given to man and its capabilities. The city of Erjansk, roots of which lay in medieval ancient times, is now stuck in a soviet-like time period, where progress is punished and evolution had long been paused. The city, smelling of urine and rot - now a playground for beings with godlike abilities called The Other. They come in many forms, usually inspired by the mundane, twisted into something absurd and nightmarish to turn basic human experiences into hell. Human meat is just food, and the skin is no different to cloth or wallpaper. Human suffering is but a trial, a gateway to become just like them. They can wipe out all life but simply choose not to, for it would no longer bring amusement, and pain and suffering is the only thing left that allows them to truly grasp it. To the average erjan - every move may result in death, restarting of life cycle, and every daily activity may end up being their last. Welcome to Erjansk, where every episode is a new experience, location and character filled with absurdity, horror and dread. 🥩 OPENING SCENE CREDITS:🩸 Directed, Written &amp; Edited | Victorans XD:<a href="https://www.youtube.com/@VictoransXD" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/@VictoransXD</a><a href="https://www.instagram.com/victorans_xd" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/victorans_xd</a><a href="https://www.victoransxd.newgrounds.com" rel="nofollow">https://www.victoransxd.newgrounds.com</a><a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@victorans_xd" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">https://www.tiktok.com/@victorans_xd</a> 🩸 Stop-Motion Animation &amp;

<a href="https://pukebomb.newgrounds.com" rel="nofollow">@PukeBomb</a> presents...SHITEATERS Picture, if you will, a meticulously crafted symphony of flavors that dance upon the tongue with grace similar to that of a chihuahua with irritable bowel syndrome. At its core, taste a succulent medley of sun-cooked feces from that of a canine, tender as a lover's whisper, exquisitely bathed in a reduction of vintage urine, aged to perfection after consumption of the most pungent asparagus. This resplendent canvas is adorned with shavings of the rarest human chocolates, imparting an earthy, intoxicating aroma that elevates the senses to celestial heights. Our "Shit" is not merely a dish; it is an ode to the exquisite, an affirmation of the sublime, and an unparalleled journey into the rarefied realm of culinary hedonism; for this creation is not just a meal... it is an experience, where each bite is a sonnet and every morsel an affirmation of the exceptional.

Five Nights FUNKIN' At The Menu

An animatic that almost didn't get made, until it did one day!

This is owned by Explosm Entertainment, but I drew and animated everything here! This is an animatic, not the final animation, but if you're interested in how it turned out, click here to watch Cooking For The Boss on YouTube! <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OrP22DLphtM" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OrP22DLphtM</a> Way back in 2018 I was working with Mike Salcedo on a short that was initially called Dinner With The Boss, and it was a hilarious script. The visual gag ideas that Mike and the directors and I were coming up with were really dark but really funny. And in fact, it necessitated so many new backgrounds and assets (like props and the animals and their different poses) that it got shoved deep into the backburner because it was going over budget. Not the first time for that to happen to a short that I worked on- it happens. It happened to Basebird, this, a Bas Rutten parody called Kick Nicholson (which I've been told is creeping toward getting made, but it's been many years and I'm not holding my breath.) And recently it happened to a giant robot short that I was thrilled to work on. Now, the animatic for the giant robot short can be viewed on Explosm's Patreon. I'm sure Kick Nicholson is there too, and Basebird eventually got released. But when Cooking for the Boss finally had the funding to be produced, I was thrilled. The gags still land, they did a great job, everything came out great. Check it out!

C&H Cooking For The Boss Animatic

The Swooping Snitchbug is annoying in Pikmin 1, then they became insufferable in Pikmin 2, and then Pikmins 3 and 4 would make them simple targets. They had this coming. This was made during the time Pikmin 4 was being announced, and previews were showing. When it was shown that Oatchi could swim with the Pikmin squad on his back, questions were risen on what Blue Pikmin were for at this point. I had this thought of them being the one type to just EAT. So I depicted that thought in this week's bit. Remastering all of these for this channel, I think this one is getting the most changes. The big change is the base for the BG. Thing is-- at the time, I was in a hurry to get this encoded. The way the footage exported was with ONLY the line art, so I needed a purely white backdrop to make it readable. I used a screenshot from Wander Over Yonder, from a scene in "The Good Bad Guy" where Lord Hater about to draw Major Threat's face on his butt, and tried to make it so bright that it's just white. One some screens, it's really apparent that the pic is still there, since the brightness didn't go all the way. This time around, I just went into MS paint, and made a purely white backdrop. This was the first appearance of Drip the Blue Pikmin. He would later be a swimming coach for Notch, and also have a refined culinary taste.
