Hello everyone. Since Cobra's passing, I've been slowly picking up the pieces on this end as I figure out how I will be proceeding with my content. I'm sure my intentions will become more apparent on the channel, but I thought it would be nice to share my initial thoughts here.
I was not ready for Cobra to pass away. Mentally, I was on track to gradually shift away from covering him, wit...
END OF WEEK UPDATE 6/16: Because you have been so patient I will be throwing in a 3D printed Jord behelit I made (see attached) with the tapes. They're about the size of a small egg. There's something else I wanted to do to the tapes but I gotta make sure I don't inadvertently ruin them or start a fire, hehe. I've got a pile of em ready to be recorded onto! Will update again by the end of next ...

Hello all. This Patreon has been grievously neglected, and I thank you all for sticking it out with me... I will be resuming updates here so that you can all get a view into everything I've been up to. There's a LOT to catch up on, hopefully I won't miss anything.
THE CURSED TAPES
I will be setting a hard cutoff for myself to finish my tape footag...
Hiya gang,
I've had some requests for information on how the 3D dancing Cobra was made... woof, there's a lot to unpack. This will give you a very surface level view of the software I use and the workflow, but it'll at least provide a sense of how my software works. I've gone through several iterations of 3D Cobras, with one of my earliest being made 2023-08-15 22:17:22 +0000 UTC View Post
My first batch of cursed VHS tapes will be going out this month! I've been reaching out to VHS-tier patrons (past and present) just to be sure I've got a good address to ship to, so you might be getting an email from the G-MAN. So far I've been given free reign to put whatever I want in these tapes, so I'm going to go hogwild on 'em.
Just for some transparency, there will not be any nudit...

HAIL
Man, it has been an exciting past couple of weeks. I was finally able to nab my guest for "Cobra's Rage and Shame," and we were able to sneak in a call-in show. I have reached out to a certain somebody to see if his jovial self will return for a podcast topic we discussed a LONG time ago, "Cobra's Friends." Hopefully he's still excited to talk about it! My goal this...
Hiya friends. A Deal With Skygod, Cobra and Fashion, Killers III and the Conspiracy II stream all took place since the last post... you are all well overdue for an update!
Giant project taking place
I have begun working on a special project that should be announced very soon. Because of the scope of what I wanted to do, I had to double down on learning some 3D softwar...
Hi everyone! Lots to share today. As always, THANK YOU for your support, I can never say it enough.
AI frame interpolator
I figured out how to use a "frame interpolator," basically some software that can fill in the gaps between frames of animation. As an example, here is a rough animation I made: https...
Hello Cobra lords! I hope you're all doing well. I've been meaning to show you guys some pictures from Warlord fight pt. II for quite some time now, thanks for waiting patiently as always.
Warlord fight pics
These ones are done in grayscale, then converted to color. The fight is really heating up, and is honestly the most ambitious animation I've ever tri...
Hiya gang. I'm sorry for the pause in progress after things were going so well; it took me awhile to get back in the right headspace after we lost someone to COVID.
STILL drawing the Warlord fight animation
I've drawn an absurd number of frames for the Cobra vs. Warlord fight, it's coming along nicely. I'm 99% certain I'm going to use the VCR interpolation effect us...

Hello all!
The past few weeks have absolutely flown by! I can't believe the sheer number of livestreams that have taken place. The NYE stream, 3 back to back call-in streams, and just recently the Valentine's stream. However we are just now coming up on a month since the last podcast, and while it's been recorded for some time now, I badly need to finish editing it so that it can release ...

Feeling rejuvenated after finally putting the holidays behind me! Ready to put in some serious hours. Scheduling has begun to record 2 more Snake Bones podcasts; in addition, there are loose plans to branch out into a CWC and DSP podcast! Between recording, editing audio, and creating visuals I'm going to have my work cut out for me.
I had been trying to unlock more forbidden techniques w...

Hi Cobra fans!
I've been working on visual materials for the podcast, and made these two backgrounds. They are absurd-res at 4K, and make for nice desktop wallpapers/lock screens. You guys deserve something exclusive for being in this special club, you won't find them at this resolution anywhere else.
Confirmed coming up this month:
-New podcast episode with C...

Going hard on a new Last Cobra Console vid... astoundingly it's yet another Clint-centric one. Clint's communications to the subreddit regarding Josh are just so fascinating, and in my opinion, overlooked. This is going to be the end-all video for Clint, covering his numerous reddit posts. He posted so many damn times, that I wound up with roughly 30 minutes of spoken audio from my Clint guy. 2021-11-08 04:02:12 +0000 UTC View Post
Hello friends! If all goes to plan, we're gonna have one hell of a Halloween stream this year. In addition to the usual shenanigans, I've got an idea in mind that involves the viewers needing to solve a Cobra lore based riddle before something grotesque happens.
Other than that, I wanted to share a couple of cool images taken from my dirty video mixer. When the footage is playing, i...

With some deceptive trickery, the AI upscaler will work on dummies... behold Shon and Felicia's glamor shot.
I should be able to knock out the newest Snake Bones by the end of this weekend! After that, I'd like to...
-Make a new Boglimaire Trailer
-Do another Cobra Console (the Clint voice actor finished his lines just recently)
-Get ready for this years Halloween stream
Heyo, hopefully you guys don't mind another post so soon. I wanted to share a couple of 4K 3D renders I made recently. The one with the checkerboard pattern is largely inspired by 90s math textbooks, and the other is more of a recreation of what was called 'memphis' symbols, also used heavily in the 80s and 90s. If I wind up creating more I figure I'll just add them to this post; feel free to u...

"Killers II" is out!! Give it a watch if you haven't already!
The pictures above are a very exclusive look into a giga discovery that was made while coloring the panels; VCR interpolation! Basically, my spritework has been able to benefit from the VCR's composite signal much like old 16-bit games used to. There was some extra secret sauce applied to the VCR's settings to add some intere...
Greetings!
Been putting in a ton of hours on the Killers animation sequel! It's getting really close. I'm so damn grateful for the support you guys are providing, it feels great to finally go hard on all the projects I want to do. In case you're wondering, the stuff will be converted from grayscale to color, I've got a really fast means of swapping colors. I would LOVE to be able t...
HAIL, FRIENDS
Been working hard on a sequel to "Killers" for some time now, meant to be a Jord version of Cboyardee's "Dilbert 3." Because I'm a maniac, I ditched the Cboyardee style it was based on and started to really go crazy on the artwork. Everything so far has been in grayscale, I'll be using color replace later on when it's finally time. There's a ton more drawings completed, but ...
