I'd like to show everyone a cartoon I did a year or two ago using anime studio...

Nice one! I think it would work better if it were shorter, but the story did hold my attention, which is challenging with a cartoon of this length. And I like that you went all in with the style, it made it fun to watch!

thanks , yes you are so right it was too long.some nice ideas but pacing could be tighter... hence the next cartoon I made..Mosquito ghost, "atom-ra" is 9 and a half minutes.....and feels a much better paced film ...the first cartoon I made in the mosquito ghost series was 18 and a half minutes...way too long..so im cutiing it down as I go along. I think a max of ten minutes is about right for my cartoons....a lot of viewers wont stay with you for more than two minutes let alone eighteen !!!

There is a second Roach motel script knocking around so who knows it may resurface some time in the future...it just needs a final polish
