Dicks Retirement Trailer Park

Welcome, Dicks!

Dicks Retirement Trailer Park is an exceedingly quirky animated series about a tiny retirement mobile home community. Conceived in 2023, it utilizes a primitive animation style to tell brief (only one minute) stories about the members of the park. As the show progressed, the stories became more sophisticated and adult, and so too did the animation. You will notice a significant shift in style from the earlier episodes to the later ones.

In July of 2025, I began work on a motion picture version of Dicks. Originally the movie comprised the episodes all strung together. Ultimately this proved unsatisfactory, so I scrapped that version and began a new film that did make use of many episodes, but also featured a considerable amount of new, original material. Pulling this off required that I remaster thousands of pieces of art so that the film had a consistent look from end to end.

From here you can choose how to view the series: one (crude) episode at a time, or all rolled into a better-looking, two hour and twenty minute motion picture. If you have the time, I would opt for the latter, since the visuals are much improved, and the modified and expanded stories are more satisfying. Either way, there's well over an hour of bonus materials, which includes The Dicks Three, a spin-off of sorts featuring Dot, Glen and Ping in a band.

By March 2026, I'd completed everything I'd set out to do with Dicks. As I wrapped everything up, I re-engineered the website to be simpler and more streamlined. Everything can be accessed directly from the home page. Enjoy!
