Some Dawgtown fanart 🐾

I've always had a soft spot for animated stories about animals, especially the ones that aren't afraid to tackle more serious themes.

This project reminds me of the animated films and shows I grew up with in the 2000s. There's something about its style and atmosphere that feels very nostalgic to me.

It's a shame that traditional 2D animation is so expensive and time-consuming, because I'd love to see more independent projects like this. Stories with heart, ambitious worldbuilding, and animal characters are becoming harder to find these days.

Was just thinking of fauna in the Zone again and how it'd be neat if Clockwork's domain was surrounded by like Slices of time, with a host of creatures (and plants) from past, present (and even future) existing on the islands surrounding their tower.

All of them have existed (or will exist) in the mortal realm at some point in time, but they're distinctly Off as ghosts. Too many eyes, too long of limbs, too sharp at the edges, too large, too amorphous.

Things recognizable one moment aren't so the next. In a blink, the islands can seem to turn and twist, time shifting to replace what was once primordial invertebrates with towering megafauna.
