G'day internet mates, Slick-O-Nick is my name and I create content of topics that interests me, such as; My Little Pony, Animation, Gaming, Charmx or Life updates.

~ BUTTON'S ADVENTURES ~
After becoming a brony, and appreciating all the work the fandom has done - I've wanted to give back to the community what they should've gotten long ago...
I'm currently working on my most ambitious project: REVIVING Button's Adventures with the help of fellow supporters from the My Little Pony community!
I'm learning animation for the first time specifically to bring this mini-series back to life.
~~~
~ CHARMX ~
As a fan who use to watch him everyday for years up until his departure from the internet, I've made my fair share of videos on the subject, including the History of Charmx / Fresh Cut Slim.
~~~
~ ACCOMPLISHMENTS ~
- History of Charmx/FCS
- 1100 Uploads
- Have an editor
- Gather a team for animation, voice acting, composing, and writing

Consider supporting the channel? :P

I've made my (possibly?) last gaming video but this one will be special.
Prior to the shift into MLP content, I've wanted this to be a gaming channel. Now I feel it's time to end this gaming era of my YouTube journey with something I've never done before.
An old friend of mine who is a game developer and works with a small indie team has given me an early access key so I got to play the game before release! They've also allowed me to share the game on YouTube prior release date.
This video will be more minimal editing. There'll be some glitches present so that the developers know about it. I'll be honest and will say what I think. Apologies in advance for the mic volume, guess I was speaking quieter at points than I realised.
This video was also a huge pain to work on at times because of - *cough* iPhone/PC moments.
After I release this, I'll be going straight back to animation but I'll still be taking a lot of breaks via hanging out in VC, playing a game or what-have-you.
Thank you again to my old friend and the team for sharing me their game!
Best of luck on the launch. ✨

I haven’t made it much of a secret that this project genuinely terrifies me.
It’s beyond ambitious compared to what I’ve worked on in the past, I’m brand new to the subject of creating animation and such, the amount of attention the project got after I announced it, and now involving a small team, granted I’ve never worked with a team like this before let alone leading it.
So much can go wrong in a project like this from burn out, to disinterest, bad writing, etc… this is a project where I can’t fumble the execution. Last thing I want is to spend this much work just for it to be total complete failure, disappointing long time fans and myself for thinking I could do this.
I wanna make the community happy we got all of Button’s Adventures. I wanna make Jan proud his series had a final positive conclusion. I wanna prove myself to be worth something in life.
Now that @TwitalHD announced their Button Plus project is officially cancelled, I seem to be the only one working on a Button Mash Revival. Is it really all up to me now?
Regardless of what happens, I will forever appreciate the support from you all who also wanna see this series become reality as much as me.
Whether it’s sheer commitment for learning animation for the first time for the sake of this project or complete stupidity on my part for not having learnt any of these traits sooner - is up for you to decide.

BUTTON MASH'S NEW VA HAS ALREADY BEEN CHOSEN!
I should've announced this sooner but our new voice for Button has already been chosen as I believe their role was best suited for the Button's Adventures REVIVAL!
We, of course will not be publicly announcing who this mysterious new VA is for quite some time. When/If we reach much further in development after working together for some time I'll be intrigued on a VA reveal for Button Mash and Cream Heart, but until then, wish us the best of luck!
Till next time, gamers.

BUTTON MASH AUDITIONS ARE NOW CLOSED!!
Thank you to those who auditioned for the role of Button Mash!
(TOTALING: 21 AUDITIONERS / 46 SUBMISSIONS?!)
I certainly wasn't expecting this many submissions where I first opened audits but after y'all saw my Revival video, I was blown away (and admittedly overwhelmed) by just how many of you quickly jumped on board!
As for when these VAs will be revealed, It'll be kept a mystery until we've worked together for quite some time.
Until then...
Best of luck! ^^

So after some time I was able to get a Windows virtual machine set up so that I can use Adobe Animate for the project!
Be aware, I essentially need to learn to animate *all over again* which will take some time. This way it'll allow me to animate with vectors (which Krita can't) and will have more compatibilty with future collaborations with other animators so it should be worth it in the end.
Will be watching tutorials to guide me, here's hoping things go well. 👍

BUTTON MASH AUDITIONS CLOSE IN A WEEK!
The amount of auditions we've got for Button has been crazy and there's certainly competition, so I've decided this will be the last week auditions for Button Mash are available!
If any of you still wanted to give Button a try or have been practising for the role, be sure to submit an audition here (discord.gg/JKFHuBzk72) by *13th APRIL*
Thank you to those who auditioned, and good luck! ^^

After careful consideration I have decided to quit the BMA project due to an overly-ambitious vision. (Check comments for more details)

G'day everypony! Wow so many new people...
Just yesterday on Button's C&D Anniversary, I announced publicly that I started work on a very ambitious project which is essentially reviving Button's Adventures (created by @jananimationstudios), and the response has been overwhelming! Thank you to those taking interest and joining to support me in this project!
I've not gone far in this project yet (as of typing this, I'm animating Button grabbing his juice box from the fridge), so here's hoping the end result turns out alright.
I saw many mentions of @TwitalHD who's also trying to bring back BMA. I'm already well aware of his project and even auditioned myself just after his casting call video. Both of us are executing this project a bit differently however. While his reboot is more to his own vision of Button, my take is sticking true to Jan's vision for how the series was meant to play out had it never been cancelled.
Because I've never done anything like this before, asking for collabs and such, I'm peaving TERRIFIED right now but also pretty exciting. Not even sure if I'm doing this right but still trying my best!
Here's hoping this project turns out the way I want it to.
Talk to y'all soon!
