Hey Eddheads! Every year we host 'Eddvent', where we post a winter-themed illustration every day leading up to Christmas from a mix of in-house artists and guests. It's a huge time of year for us, posting every day and connecting with the community, and it's happening soon over on our Instagram and Twitter!

It starts with a template...
We have basic templates for 3 and 4-panel comic strips, but we usually try to stick with a 4-panel layout. If we're using a guest artist we will send them this template.

Hey Eddheads! We're currently working on our most ambitious Eddsworld video yet. Sadly, you'll have to wait a while longer to see the finished project, BUT today we're sharing some exclusive storyboard and animatic previews with you on Patreon.
As some of you may know (or not) Beyond's first "season" was going to be comprised of what we affectionately called The Four Seasons, intended to take place over Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter. Beaster Bunny started this off...

Ahhh! It's a super exciting day here at Eddsworld HQ. After almost TWO YEARS of back and forth with designers and manufacturers (and delays due to COVID-19 and material shortages), we're finally releasing our first official toy! An Eddsworld Tomee Bear cuddly toy!
For years fans have been asking for this one, and we've put a lot of work in behind the scenes to make sure it's perfect. Check it out on the official store right here.

Hey team! We're hard at work finishing off the next main channel short, Randumb! Here are some sneek-peak screenshots, exclusive to Patrons!
Randumb is a series of short mini-sketches, kind of like Edd's Tales. If people like it we're looking forward to making more in future! The goal with this first two years of Eddsworld Beyond has been to demonstrate each of the different types of video we want to make for the channel, so it's been interest...

Hey everyone!
We recently released two new posters, one for our new Eddisode Beaster Bunny and one for a total classic called Spares. The Spares poster design in particular went through a lot of revisions from its initial concept, so we're sharing that development with you on Patreon!
The idea was originally by Fran, who envisioned a poster of just Edds. A hundred clones of Edd all staring into the distance, with one 'real' Edd looking worried in the mid...

Hey Eddheads!
We shared a few of images the other week over on Twitter of random things that our team doodle while they're working — so we wanted to share even more exclusive images with you guys over here on Patreon!
This gallery contains stuff by lots of different artists on the team and it's always fun to see their own styles applied to the EW characters. Enjoy!

Hey Patreon Squad! We're sharing something big today (and long overdue), the original animatic for Beaster Bunny!
This is the full video in animatic form, mostly black and white, with no special effects or music. It was also created using a temporary 'scratch' recording of the dialogue. To figure out how long a script is going to run we typically record something like this early in the production process and then cut and experiment with the audio to figure out the timing. This audio was...

Hey gang!
The jokes in our comics often go through a process of development and change before they get finalised! This one from Wayne ended up going through a few changes and it perfectly shows the process of trying different punchlines which are suggested by the rest of the team. They truly are a group effort!
Which version was your favourite? Are there any punchlines you would have suggested?

Hey guys!
Right before the release of Beaster Bunny we shared a small gallery of some of the characters in the episode. So today we wanted to share the complete character sheet, including some character designs which didn’t make it into the final episode from Fran, Collin and Wayne.
How many of these characters did you spot in the Eddisode? And which of the unused designs would you have liked to see?
-Darcy.

Hey Eddheads!
Beaster Bunny was so much fun for the team to design – from characters, to NOG logos, to creating the entire environment … in 3D!
With the entire episode taking place in one big area, mapping it out was essential for the animators to understand the backgrounds when creating them. They even had to keep track of what colour table cloths went where!

Hey Eddheads!
There were a lot of changes and developments for the NOG logo which featured in Beaster Bunny!
For the logo, the team wanted to capture something similar to other soft drinks, taking inspiration from logos like Coca-Cola with their ‘groove-like’ image! So our animator, Wayne, drew up these amazing logos, starting with the first draft and then the final logo which was in the Eddisode!
We hope you loved it as much as we do!
