HLTW episode 3 AUDIO preview

i recorded dialog for episode 3. it needs some work, but here's a little preview

HLTW - EPISODE 3 CONCEPT

here's some concept art for the next episode of HLTW. some of the more eagle-eyed viewers out there might have already seen this sketch. i have been sitting on this one for a bit. won't go too deep into what the episode will be about. instead, i will let the sketch do the talking

15 years later

just realized its now been 5 years since i drew this first image, and by extension, 15 years since starting high school. in order to celebrate the freedom of no longer living under the oppressive hierarchical structure of high school, here is TY being even more gay in 2025

KEBAB PALACE PUBLIC RELEASE

the new episode is now out for public viewing on youtube. made a few minor tweaks to the episode for public release. i hope everyone enjoys it, and have a great weekend!!

VOLK ERAS

drew a bunch of volks today. reimagining him throughout the decades and speculating what a 90s version of his design would look like without that terrible flat top. imo he should always have a lush mane bc its one of my fav things about him. volk has me feeling a way

UNDER THE SEA

there'll be no accusations, just friendly crustaceans!! i drew this with a few friends who are also into the shrimpsons

MULTIPLICI-TY (ROUGH)

comics are back (im tired of animating and i wanna take a little break from it). been feeling like i could get more stuff done if i had a bunch of doppelgangers that i could allocate work to. yes, a bunch of sexy doppelgangers. uh- i mean, i could make my own animation studio and crank out cartoons like great depression era fleischer. what was i talking about? oh yeah this comic. im happy with ...

MULTIPLICI-TY

the things that i could accomplish if there was more than one TY

HLTW - SULEIMAN'S KEBAB PALACE

the new episode is finally here!! suski and TY go to their local kebab palace, and TY tests suski on his knowledge of ottoman history

this was a fun episode. took longer to produce than i expected. these videos were supposed to replace the weekly comics, but i realize that i am spending way more time on these videos than i ever did with the comics. also i am exhausted and i have to take c...

AUGUST UPDATE

happy august everyone!! still working on the new video (WIP shown above) but im getting close to finishing. anyhoo, its time for the monthly sketches. send me your request for a single character full-body sketch, either here through patreon DMs or on telegram @Neon_Maned_Wolf or signal @TY_PESH.21

HLTW episode 2 sneak peek

after a lot of time wrangling the audio clips into something listenable, i am now animating. here's a sneak peek of what the episode will be about. gonna try to finish animation by the first. probably won't happen, but i can try anyways

AUDIO and ANIMATION

i dont like editing audio. i cant listen to the spice girls or bubsy 3d playthroughs while equalizing. im doing what must be done, the finishing touches on the audio for the second HLTW. i recorded audio in 3 different sessions and they all sound a little different due to several variables such as acoustics of the recording room, the dryness of my throat, the alignment of the stars etc. luckily...

BRO BURGER - HUNGRY LIKE THE WOLVES (PUBLIC)

the public release is here!! i made a few small changes from the early release version. i hope u enjoy it!!

BRO BURGER YTP

i was editing a short little preview of the bro burger episode for social media. trying to get ppl excited about it and hopefully tempt them to sub to my patreon. anyway, in the middle of editing i scrubbed through a clip in reverse and got the sudden urge to make a YTP edit of the preview. i dont have much experience with this kinda stuff, but i've been watching YTPs since 2008 so i guess that...

CHIPTUNE SETUP

had this idea for live performances. one gameboy is playing a drum pattern that's being sent as a dry signal to the amp in his backpack. the other gameboy is connected to a reverb pedal for atmosphere. i've been wanting to get pickups for my uke so i can combine it all together for the ultimate pocket-sized music setup. now i just need to git gud at playing instruments (i am not good at instrum...

BEHIND THE PUPPET

here's a little look behind the scenes of HUNGRY LIKE THE WOLVES. for the bite test scene, i originally wanted to rotoscope a sock puppet eating a burger. the idea was to make the animation look uncanny and off-putting in order to catch the viewer off guard, thus enhancing the joke. the footage i recorded of me chomping on a sponge with a sock puppet did not turn out very good, so i deleted the...

JULY UPDATE

hello i hope everyone has a good june. also i hope everyone is enjoying the new video

well lets cut to the chase: it is sketch time once more. send me your requests for the monthly sketch here through patreon DMs, or on telegram @Neon_Maned_Wolf or on signal @TY_PESH.21

picture unrelated. i just doodled something fast to make this post more interesting

HUNGRY LIKE THE WOLVES - BRO BURGER

TY and suski have a food review show now. and suski talks!! join them on their quest to taste all the flavors of the world

its been a while since i made an animated short like this. posting this, i feel a sense of accomplishment and relief i havent really felt since completing my college thesis film. or maybe a couple freelance films that i worked on that i was happy with. anyhoo, im exci...

HUNGRY LIKE THE WOLVES (PREVIEW)

remember how i said i was taking a break from comics to work on something a little different? well here it is!! this is the first scene in a new video i am making. TY is now running a food review channel on youtube and suski is coming along for the ride

so those animation tests i've been doing? i got those hand-drawn frames scanned into my computer and i rigged them up as puppets that can...

GAY COWBOYS

here's another pride piece. i've been in a mood for gay cowboys lately. found my dad's old cowboy hat from his bull-riding days and i thought "lmao what if i wore this to pride?" remember in the 2000s when straight guys avoided cowboy things out of fear of being associated with brokeback mountain? that was p funny, i think cowboys should be gay again

SOCK PUPPET ANIMATION TEST

my first time uploading "dailies" since i got laid off from my animation job years ago. the majority of the animation will just be these two talking, so here's what that will look like. i want to draw it all on paper to give the final cartoon a more tangible look that will set it apart from every other computer-made animation being made these days. you know how i post the occasional marker sket...

FOOD REVIEW CONCEPT

so instead of comics this month, i was thinking of doing something a little different. here's a rough concept for an animated short about TY and suski making a fast food review for youtube. i already have dialog recorded and i just need to do some "animation." its gonna look like a show that plays on adult swim at 3 am in 2002, that is to say, the animation will be cheap. i hope it will be funn...

JUNE UPDATE

sumer is icumen in!! tis that gay and merry month of the year. as usual, send me your requests for sketches here through patreon DMs or on telegram @Neon_Maned_Wolf or on signal @TY_PESH.21

i look forward to sketching. have a lovely month everyone 🌈

OLD COMICS, NEW ART

i have a website where i have been archiving some of my older comics. its been a lot of work building my site and attempting to understand HTML, but i now have something i can be happy with. each of the story arcs has its own little cover art. i wanted them to look like movie posters. these are the two newest additions to my site. you might remember these comics from a couple years ago. or if n...

DANCING UPSTAIRS (ROUGH)

i've been obsessed with the song "lost in emotion" by lisa lisa and cult jam. it has the hardest line i've ever heard in an 80s synthpop style revival of 60s doo-wop. i mostly wanted an excuse to have TY dancing to lisa lisa. i drew him with the wham! era george michael hair. look at all that volume

took me a while to get the final drawings right. the sketches have so much energy and i wa...

DANCING UPSTAIRS

TY's neighbors enjoy his loud dancing and singing

PRIDE 2025

pride month is starting a little early this year. i guess this is my pride piece for the year. it started off as a joke sketch, but i liked it so i colored it

MESSAGE FROM THE FUTURE (ROUGH)

i am allowed to make a comic about current events every once in a while. this was mostly inspired by a squee comic in which a grown-up squee from the future goes back to the 90s to deliver a message to child squee. he forgets the message due to the effects of time travel, and subsequently succumbs to brain explosion syndrome. in case it wasn't obvious by now, i really liked jhonen vasquez comic...

MESSAGE FROM THE FUTURE

TY goes back to the summer of 2024 to deliver an important message that will surely be heeded

SLEEP AID (ROUGH)

i have conversations with myself about the topic of reverb all the time. men at work's first album "business as usual" (1982) has a lot of reverb but its tasteful. compare that to starship's hit songs "we built this city" (1985) and "nothing's gonna stop us now" (1987) from the kim cattrall movie mannequin. these songs use a much heavier and somewhat metallic sounding reverb provided by the dig...
