october, the third busiest VE month of the year

behind march and december, obviously.

hey there! been a little while since we've had some one on one. this is on account of us working as flash slaves for almost five months. which to be fair, is a lot earlier than i expected.

the flash is at about 80% completion at the time of writing this. we have 1:45 out of give or take 7:30 animated, and all of the assets save for one background. 

kohi has been very busy working on multiple projects (one you'll learn about a week or so beforehand), so these last ten days or so are going to be exclusively just us in the animation mines. kohi will be doing the bulk while joyfulldreams will be coming in to do animation clean up, ensure everything is nice and smooth. 

everything is still looking good for the halloween release, but as usual we're working down to the wire. so if there's a slight delay for some reason, we will let you know in advance. but i doubt it.

a few things about what's going on this month:

- outside of the flash release; me, heather and eddie will be joining kate and aysha at the chapel hill perfectly generic podcast live show at 'the pit' in north carolina! you can RSVP here. if you recognize us, feel free to say hello or ask for a picture/autograph/doodle after the show!

- because of this and how busy we are with the flash, there will probably not be an episode of 'The Static' this month unless i can grab kate and aysha aside for a recording. i do apologize about this in advance, it's been hectic. episodes will return next month otherwise!

- EOA2 storyboards will probably be released a few days after the release of the flash. along with a few extra goodies.

- speaking of goodies, there are a few extra things we're releasing with the flash! there's the new VEMT compilation album 'SOUND TEST I', which will be a bunch of unfinished cuts, demos, jokes, and other various things that probably would have never seen the light of day on an actual album. 

we'll also be releasing an etsy store where we will be selling physical casettes of 'Repiton' signed by pragmaticNihilist himself! i have to give a huge thank you to him, kate and especially prumm for making this all possible. i hope we can release more with their aid in the future. 

lastly we'll be releasing legitimate merchandise with designs by xam! if not with the flash then somewhat soon afterwards. there will be two shirts, one based on EOA1 (black) and one based on EOA2 (white), as well as an all cast print! the shirts are mirrored because my duality fetish is never sated. here are the sketches for the designs, exclusive for you guys:

these will be going up on our redbubble store, and we'll be making a post about it as soon as its all done. i'm very grateful to andrew and viz for allowing us to sell legitimate merchandise.

that's all i've got. hope you all enjoy what's to come, it's a lot.
