So, this is what happened a few months ago.
I was making a flash toon that would be my definitive comeback, a very ambitious project that would keep me working on it for at least a year, but it was all lost when my computer decided to act up and blow all my files up to oblivion (an auto-format option I didn't even knew it existed...)
The project was this:
Some of you young ones probably will not remember or were not around to see it, but like a decade ago just after Superman died in comic books Batman got crippled in the "Knightfall" saga.
That's what the project was all about, I was animating (to my very own improved style) the entire 12 comic books leading up to it, from the Arkham massive escape, going trough the Croc Vs. Bane fight and all the way to the final Bane Vs. Batman confrontation, keeping it as true to the comic book panels as possible...
Well, all that went away, it took me week and a half to draw all the characters and another week to draw the rest of it all (except the backgrounds) and had about 8 minutes animated wich could be translated as 2 months of work (about 6 hours a day) when I lost it all and didn't had backups... (I still had to animate like another 8 minutes but man, was it good...)
This teached me an important lesson, ALWAYS make backups, even when you think you don't need them, do it, just do it, otherwise you will be left crying in anger like I did...
I will not re-draw everything again because I don't feel like it, instead I'll take it as a sign that I should move on to other projects, however if I come up with a godd idea for a flash toon I will do it.
This doesn't mean I will quit flash, not ever, not a chance. It just means that you shouldn't hold your breath.
Until then I wish you all Luck, Love and Money
Peace
