August Update~

Heya all, it's time for the August update!

This month's headliner shows off some of the fresh new special effects we got coming in.  This gun smoke is probably as close to a spoiler we can possible get, but we're eager to show something off in the effects department.

Beyond that, we have some fairly substantial things to tell everyone.  We can definitely say now that all animation has been turned in at this point.  While this doesn't account for future corrections/additions or the cleanup for said animation, it is something we can say we are on the other side of.  

As for the clean up side of progress, we've got about one more really big shot left to clean and after that it's digging in and touching up all the shots to give them the proper amount of polish.

Additionally, I have done several passes on the editing of the overall video and I can already say that we've got roughly 99% of the timing finalized.  Every beat is connected to some kind of head bob or some other kind of action as you would come to expect out of a MSA video!

Special Effects and Background art will likely be our focus up until the release date at this point in production.

We are rapidly approaching October, so we hope we can get everything assembled in time, but if we experience any bumps in the road we'll try to give a proper heads up.

T-SHIRT NEWS:

For everyone that pre-ordered a shirt about a month ago, I've been told the actual physical shirts have reached us and should be headed out the door by the time I write this message.  It took a bit longer to do the printing process due to the recent COVID related goings-on.  That said, the recent goings-on with the UPS may cause some delays in the actual mailing part of the process so we apologize for the wait.  Either way, now is the time to keep an eye out, hopefully they'll be reaching you soon!
