Looking much better now! character chemistry is good too. Glad you kept “boy”

I just noticed how Thunder's character has Londoners teeth and I am wheezing!

Maxwell Ammerman

This new show just looks like a good time.

Confused Cabal

I dont give a damn the schedule with which you release it. I have complete confidence in your decision making process and I wouldn't have passed you the cash if I didn't

dibra-on-steam

I actually quite like the concept of you all experimenting with different styles with your similar character archetypes the way I see it as give it your self some extra strength so that say 30 years from now when you finish your big series it’ll be even better that at least my government bureaucrat opinion. Now to file tree types

Blondie

I would vote for releasing earlier than later,because A) public will get it's fix and B) the viewers will get to voice their opinions. And if it's something that would affect the creation proccess it might better to know earlier before more work is done. And so far i love this. Also, what is his full name, Regal Door? Or maybe Revolve Door?

Malorian

Yup totally not DORN AND MAGNUS lol.

DanseTheAtomBombDance

Oh I am looking forward to this. Take as much time as you need to release it, Alfa. It will be worth the waiting.

So wait are Not Magnus and Not Kitten married?....YEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Dad's right arm pops off his body at 38 seconds.

The ever-flowing humour of this banquet of animation fills my ever-famished stomach for quality entertainment like a plate of cajun salmon served with vegetables and chips, with a flavour sweet as fruit cake and hot chocolate... My very soul is illuminated by the magnificence of this GOD-TIER COMEDY!

I hate that Enter sends the message AS I WAS SAYING we are very excited to see HTP but also would wait a little more if it means the team is less burnout and the releases are more regular. You can tell everyone is working hard! Hopefully you'll be able to pay another person very soon! Before you know it you'll be paying the entire artistic community of your town - I mean, I don't think it will realistically happen but that would be very nice

This could be a very nice Generic Winter Solstice event, think about it. Not Christmas, maybe the actual Winter Solstice, something about the story of a family entering his darkest moments on the darkest day of the year, idk.

Wow Alfa the feel of this made me feel all warm on the inside again I love it. Also I’m so incredibly happy that Boy is now canonically Door’s son. Edit: BTW almost forgot, for me personally, take as long as you need to release it. I don’t mind the wait!

When I watched TTS, I ended up trawling through random sections of WH40k lore to understand a bit more of what was being referenced. I expect the same will happen with this and VTM. That out of the way, god just hearing the voices again gets me excited. I AM READY FOR MORE FROM ALFABUSA: THE STUDIO: THE OFFICIAL RELEASE: THE PREMIER EDIT: This track bodes Very Well for this whole endeavor, and I look forward to hearing More.

This looks great

Wonko The wise

Listened to the song you put in the post by your new hire. You guys just keep on pooling talent like this, and you'll rule the world someday. Keep up the phenomenal work!

Amicable.

Happy to hear this, thank you!

Alfabusa

Grateful for the opportunity to eventually show it to you. And thank you for your thoughts! I'm hoping it's not a big deal to the majority of people here.

Alfabusa

THANK you for your thoughts on the matter!

Alfabusa

Thank you!! I am genuinely happy with it as well. It might not be everyone's cup of tea but it is definitely mine and I will inject it into my gullet.

Alfabusa

Appreciate your thoughts! I'm hoping to make the snippets a regular thing, it feels good to show you and everyone else actual stuff instead of just insistence on stuff being made.

Alfabusa

An absolutely fantastically reassuring comment, genuinely thank you, that’s SO nice of you to say.

Alfabusa

I like the new animation a lot, and I will happily wait a little bit extra if it means an easier production cycle for you. The consistent updates and the little snippets are great for showing that you are doing work, and even besides that you haven't let us down before because you've always produced excellent content. :)

Hariman

I love how crisp the new animation is! The variety in facial expressions is also wonderful! Great job, Alfa!

Maxwell Ammerman

i think starting on ep2 is a great choice and i like it :D

Wi-Gi

Can't wait to see the full ep, this is looking awesome! And I think you guys taking some time in between episodes to build a headway is a good move, no big deal in waiting a little bit.

I like excitement.

This is looking great. Also I think waiting to release episodes so that you can get a bit of headway on the next episode is probably for the best. I don't know about everyone else but I am willing to wait.

Renic

Dadorable has become reality. I fucking love this.

Taylor Tilbury

It's so nice seeing these samples. I guess a very small worry existed in the back of my head that my unfamiliarity with the property would dull my enjoyment of these episodes, but seeing this makes me feel cozy and warm. The gangs still here. The wit and charm went nowhere. The acting and animation still slays. It's a different skin but this is still the same Alfbusa goodness that we love you for. Keep up the phenomenal work man!

Ubershmuck

I have some ideas you could try to help keep the channel going strong, if you have a sec… Firstly, maybe when an episode is near enough to completion, you could release any of these Patreon exclusive clips to the public, as a sign to stay tuned for an immediate release. Or maybe you can do a little public shitpost short on YouTube whenever we on patreon would get an update. And maybe, if you guys have the time, perhaps dabble in SFM and Blender and any other 3D animation, and upload little experiments and in-jokes here and there, like making 3D reconstructions of TTS characters heads/full-bodies while animating them recite and act out some of their most iconic lines and moments. And of course you release such stuff on patreon first to gauge for a level of interest, maybe gather some constructive feedback before a public release.

Brandon Guzman

I love how the Boy is now actually his son

Lennart Winne

I am loving this so far! Also yeah smart idea to wait a little. I am totally cool with this Alfa.

Xocoxoco

Dadornable will protect Boy, so he'll be alright.

sylvacoer

Aaaaahhhhhhh, it looks so good so far! Poor Boy! :D

Hokuto Shirou

In terms of Patron retention, have you thought about continuing to do easier stuff like shorts or podcast style videos in between releases to tide the audience over?

Isaac

Eagerly anticipating this glorious creation of yours! This latest tease made us laugh out loud and also, Door and Boy completely melted my filthy heart! Dadorable! Love how expressionate they all are! Matching the glooooorious voices so well! Also please don't stress! A december release sounds just Awesome! Something to look towards to! Tack för alla skratt! Vi hejjar på här borta!!! /Frida (Laio) and Jenni

Jenni Luna Söderlund

I think TTS gave you enough goodwill that you can afford yourself some leeway. I expected a long wait between episodes because TTS came out so rarely but was so amazing when it did release. Cut yourself some slack and release it when it's finished, not when an imaginary deadline hits.

Powerhouse616

I enjoyed this so much I almost forgot it's a teaser

GUYFUN

I am totally fine with waiting until Dec. so you guys can take a breather and get a head start on the next episode. Also really looking forward to the first episode. Lastly that music sample is quite excellent.

Lyner

Take your time. If you want to release it in december then do just that. We're not going anywhere and from the animation/soundtrack examples you have shown I can only conclude that it will definetly be worth the wait.

*breathes in* BOY

Lyk

Really enjoying what is being shown so far, and the music clip was quite lovely, especially for it just being a demo. As mentioned by others, I too have no qualms with waiting later to see ep. 1 if it means a more consistant schedule and less hurry on your end. Would be like having a nice Christmas gift lol

Cottonbonbon

As a new patron, I salivated waiting for TTS releases. Now knowing how the sausage is made, you arent losing my patronage, so you do as you feel best I say

Whiskey_Corvid

Oh I'm really excited for this, and it's looking good! As for releasing when it's done or waiting to shorten the wait gap between EP1 and 2, I don't mind wait for a delay if you think that's the better idea. Although, as you mentioned, you've hit your budget limit hiring new people you want to hire, right? I think releasing this episode sooner and hoping for the patreon bump will be the better idea. That way, you can hire people even sooner. The delay between episodes doesn't seem like a very big deal to me, and I am used to waiting months on end for a single episode of a series, not just from you and TTS, but from other series like DBZA lol. Either way, as I said I'm fine with whatever you decide is best.

I am eager to see it, but not so eager I wouldn't expect you guys to give yourselves a breather between. I can see a month pause being reasonable to get some work put in on the next episode. Just don't leave it too LATE in December (Christmas madness is a heck of a force to contend with!). The song clip is quite nice, I like how it builds! Sounds like an excellent piece for the intended series! Edit: Just as I posted I remembered a piece of advice my grandfather dropped on me. "Always remember to treat your business as an employee and give it at least half a salary too. That way when you need to buy equipment, or if contracts dry up, you have money to keep the business alive and pay everyone else in it." He was a heavy machinery operator but the principles of business rarely change. The principles of we the public panicking at every shift in the wind, however, does not.

Trevor Bond

The last thing I want is you burning out Alfa. Whatever works best is fine. I signed up realizing that so it's not an issue for me.

Fizz of Insanity

Congrats!

Nate El

My flesh consumed indeed boy... My flesh consumed indeed. I can't wait to see the whole thing, keep it up bubba!

Santo

First off: Everything is looking VERY GOOD. And I LOVE IT. Secondly: I am definitely more in favor of keeping the release dates closer together, even if it means waiting longer to see Episode 1 in all it’s glorious glory. Having a regular stream of content injected right into my eye hole is preferable.

Always Watching

Thank you very much!! And I appreciate the thoughts. Just to clarify because yeah it’s worth shedding light on, the thought process goes like this; Given an additional month to start work on EP2 before the release of EP1, then we will lie ahead one month on everything we do going forward. It might catch up with us eventually, but it means that we’ll be able to finish EP2 only a short time after 1, thus giving us the opportunity to get ahead on EP3 in good time for 2’s release! And so on.

Alfabusa

I sooooo missed these voicesss!

Dôvid Dubois

Good lord that animation! I cannot wait for this to be finished! Now let me talk about how I am totally willing to wait until it's finished lol I wouldn't mind waiting until December. Whatever works best for the workflow is absolutely fine by me. However, I'm not sure if I exactly see the benefit to waiting? Like if you're holding every video for a month before release then the releases will still be spaced out the same way as they would've been. I suppose that it would give you a little leeway on how long the video takes to get done but I'd be concerned about causing crunch time on the next video. But of course, I have no idea what I'm talking about and just wanted to add my opinion :) We're ready for whatever you decide!

Eve Mizgala

My thoughts; : )

IllogicalLogic

Like depending on how little you build up by it could even be as small as an extra day each time in the beginning, which would barely be noticable

In regards to the release question; Maybe you could release this one immediately, and then release each episode a little later as time goes on? Sort of build-up to releasing them on a safer basis

God that last part with his open mouth was terrifying to see for that split second but I’m very excited to watch this in its entirety
