I was told by teachers: "You will not get anywhere in life by drawing and doodling"

...I later worked on award-winning animation shows. Won Festival Awards, and get paid to draw and doodle.

Eddsworld Art Charity.

Posted by BadTwinZ - May 3rd, 2023


So it's been a while since my last troubling blog post. It was an undeserving and surreal event for my family. Now that I'm helping them and getting involved more. They are doing better than what they had to put up with.


Let's kick off things with my first-ever charity event...


Eddsworld 20th Charity Art Contest!

Working with Newgrounds, @Tomfulp, and @Eddsworld Team, I want this event to celebrate and be a big homage to Edd Gould. A big influence on me to choose animation as a career. I remember watching his cartoons rather than the TV before school and checking his blog daily for any new updates or comics. It was heartbreaking to hear of Edd Gould passing after his long battle against cancer in 2012.


I understand the pain that Cancer can have. Not just on the individual but also on people in their circle. It's just out of nowhere and turns everything upside down. It happened to my Dad and Family Relatives. You'll never forget it, from the news to the end of it. Even if you're not affected...it can still break you down.


I loved the work that Edd Gould and his Amazing Team brought. This Charity Art Contest will be a great time to celebrate the memorable impact on countless storytellers, artists, animators, and people.


We've already got our first art wowie!

Even if you're not an artist. You can help contribute to the fight against cancer by heading to this link! https://www.newgrounds.com/supporter?donate (Make sure you PM Tom Fulp so your name can be listed on sponsors). Every donation will raise the charity fund and increase the prize pot for artists.


So what are you waiting for!? Get involved!


- BadTwin, Eddsworld Team, and Newgrounds are receiving ZERO of the money raised. All money will go to Prize Pot and Charity Fun...we're not monsters.


Thank you and Good Luck to everyone!

Donated :) Edd Gould is one of those people I would have given years of my life for, so this is the least I could do.

Fuckin Legend.

Awesome. Edd Gould was a big motivator for my art.

NOOOOO I MISSED IT! Why didn't I check Newgrounds sooner?! :( I just started working on my art for it cuz I thought it was THIS month! Well at least I can still donate.
