Gagala News (G-log #3)

The background is finished with 14 frames in an endless loop. Candace and Linda are currently at work, but a lot of decisions still have to be made. I hate that. If I don't include clothing and create just three frames of movement, the animation would already be finished. But... I have some text that would fit this animation perfectly: some of Linda's text and some of Candace's. Animating their mouths to fit the spoken words is very hard, and there has to be music in the background as well. Now, I have to decide which text to use. It should be as short as possible. Should they both be dressed? I think the answer is yes to fit the situation. I will make a short version for supporters only. The long version will take some time. As always. I wish I could afford professional software like the professionals use. Thanks for your patience.

Work on the public Secret Lair will take longer than expected. Many files were renamed with an additional _02 or _03; I have no idea which program did this. These files must all be renamed manually.

Sorry for the delay.

Sorry guys, but my health won't let me do what I want. There will be a work delay. I'll try to get back to work as soon as possible.

Happy New Year to all of you!

Let's hope for a better year.

The door handle on the inside of the driver's door of my car broke off last week. Unfortunately, I can't afford a new one. I have an appointment with a mechanic in a week, but not because of that, but because there are strange noises coming from the rear brakes, strange that this does not happen all the time while driving. Looks like the new year will start expensive again.

A new masterpiece by PhillipThe2 is now available in the Special Folders for supporters.

Thank you for your patience and support, I really appreciate it.

Hanging around? Nothing to do? Paint by numbers! It's big fun!

Just arrived, a paint-by-numbers picture of Ann in Kim's cheerleader outfit. A wonderful artwork by PhillipThe2. Thank you, Phil, for sharing with us and for the great job you have done!

Fingers crossed, a category 5 hurricane is heading straight for PhillipThe2's location. May he and all the people of Florida be spared.

Just arrived: Two versions of a new artwork by PhillipThe2 without a name, so let's just pretend Bonnie is getting private lessons from Miss Go on a rainy afternoon.

Thanks Phil, you did a great job again!

Seeing such wonderful and real artwork like this will become rarer and rarer in these days when millions of AI crap are generated every day. Especially those creators like me, who live from their work, will sooner or later not be able to continue, because only a few people appreciate this work and will continue to support them, when they could have amazing works for a much smaller amount, or even for free. Just last weekend, a Platinum benefactor left me, and that really hurts. If this loss of supporters continues, I will have to apply for welfare next year. I'm all the more happy if you are one of my remaining supporters, thank you very much for providing my livelihood! [Big bear hug!]
