Unlike many digital animators who rely on symbol rigging (reusing arm/leg templates), is a purist. Frame-by-frame animation is the hill they die on. A standard 10-second fight scene from this creator can contain over 600 unique drawings, a workload that would break lesser artists.

animator320's YouTube channel functions as the primary archive for the CartoonMania series, housing episodes, voice demonstration videos, and a showcase of his 492 self-portraits.
