A LOTTA Rough Animation! (Aug 2025 Update)

Hi Patrons!

Here is an update on what we've been working on - and the summary is pretty simple.

We've been grinding out a ton of rough animation and cleanup - nearly 3 dozen scenes animated since our last update! I'm very pleased with our pace, and I intend to keep it up all the way to the finish line of Story 9!

Dummy Plush Campaign Done!

Thank you all for supporting the Dummy YouTooz plush sale and accompanying animation! I'm looking forward to seeing the jester guy pop up in everyone's mailboxes in the coming months.

We're currently in the process of consolidating our merch storefronts - to aid in this I've set up a 35% OFF sale over on the Etsy shop, which is the biggest discount I've offered yet! The sale will end in 3 days on 8/19.

Story #9 Progress

As you can see from the handy chart I created above, we're fairly close to finishing the Production step of Story #9. Once we 100% the drawing/ink of all 4 chapters, we'll have backgrounds and polish left, which goes by very quickly.

Going "heads down" and working diligently really pays dividends! I can't wait to see the entire 10 minute animation come together.

I'll soon be putting out a teaser for this rather unorthodox episode.

There are so many WIP's and project materials that I want to share. To avoid accidental spoilers, I'll embed them as attachments.

Lotta Illustrating Too!

During these past few weeks I've been working out my illustration skills. Particularly in the form of paid commissions from some of you guys. I appreciate these opportunities to make custom art while getting some supplementary income for my household.

I do plan on doing a speedpaint based on the results of the Patron poll I posted recently. A little piece depicting the construction of Castle Gilded will be a nice way to tease the upcoming story.

That's all for now! Thank you for your support!
