The name's Kenny (You can call me Nugget), and I'm a 23 year old college student from Long Island. I'm mostly self taught, although I am attending SVA to gain a degree in 2d animation. I'm currently hard at work on drawing a comic series called Crescent Blue; a passion project of mine that I've been working on since I was only 13. It's a series that's sentimental to me, and something I've worked very hard on. I've had a lot of fun working on this series and I hope some you guys do too! I'll be uploading the pages I have completed for chapter 1 pretty soon with more to come in the future.

The links bellow are to the following (in order apart from my instas):
-My Twitter this is where Im most active and where you'll find a lot more frequent updates from me.
-My Deviantart account. Here I have some of my not safe for work stuff posted (you must be 18 years or older to access this account)
-My main Instagram account. This is where I first got my start and you'll find a lot of posts dating back to 2018. But due to recent events, Im taking a break from this platform until further notice
-My second Instagram account for comic updates and shit posts. Again, wont be as active for the same reasons as my main Instagram account
-My Tik Tok Account. This is my most recent account and I've only had it for a few months now. I plan on posting more here in the future
-My Artfol which I made in April of this year. I dont really use it as often anymore but I'll occasionally post there

I should note that my Instagram account and my artfol account both contain pages of CB Chapter 1. The reason is that I didn't know tapas was a thing until recently -_-

Hey guys. I just want to start this off by apologizing for any form of aggression over the past few days regarding the new episodes, especially in regards to negative comments. I have never been on shakier ground with my series than I have ever felt in the last 10 years Ive been working on this. Im burnt out to put it lightly, and I think I need a break before I wrap up Chapter 2. And I mean this with the comic portion of Crescent Blue specifically. I do have plans to explore characters in animation so this wont be the end of Crescent Blue period. The Q&A comics I still have plans to draw out so be on the look for that when it gets done! Otherwise, thank you all for your kind words regarding the new visual direction for the comic

I’ve had to remove comments which is not something I ever wanted to do but something that I’ve left no other choice in doing. I am not a professional comic artist and I’m doing this for free. I’m sorry if this is a downgrade and are expecting professional level quality, and if that’s a deal breaker for you, then unsubscribe and stop reading. That’s all I have to say

Hey guys! Please read this blog post because it pertains to the future of Crescent Blue. Ive already gotten a comment not liking the direction the art is going in and I need you all to read this if you want to know why https://www.tumblr.com/kenthenugget/822327281544527872/my-plans-for-crescent-blue-going-forward?source=share

Don't feel like you need to justify yourself. You're human like the rest of us. Look after yourself first and foremost. <3

Its time for some cross promotion! The reason I have been unable to work on my comic lately is due to a film Im doing for school! Its about this beautiful narcasitic Dalmatian woman who gets herself into some trouble. Watch the animatic here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WEkfcfDmzrg

Merry Christmas everyone and happy holidays!

Chapter 2 Part 4 will be coming out sometime next year (hopefully early around February or so), so be on the look out of that when that time comes! But thats not what Im here to talk about. As of the 24th of December, I will no longer be posting to twitter. Both of my accounts have been deleted and I will not be returning the platform ever again. It might not be a surprise to some of you since Ive mostly stopped using my twitter account as of last year but a recent change compelled me to nuke my account there entirely. Twitter now allows users to edit images you post via generative ai. No, this is not something you can turn off, nor is it something you can moderate. This is no surprise to me, given that twitter is run by ai obsessed tech bros who at best, dont understand artist, or at worse hate our guts. They dont understand why someone would put into the time and effort into getting good at drawing or writing, and only see art as a product for consumption that should be streamlined to become more efficient. But its not that. Art is one of those things that forces you to think critically about something and grow as a person which is not something these tech companies want. They want you to be mindless sheep that'll rely on AI for every decision you make, like google in this insulting commercial they made: https://youtu.be/aQKWQNbAH90

I could go on for more but I think you get the point. I genuinely hate AI and I dont want to inadvertently feed the slop machine which is why I deleted my twitter. I'll still be using other platforms like Instagram but Im done with the bluebird app....or I guess the X app (what a stupid name)
