Monkey Wrench Ep 3 aftermath + Ep 4 sneak peak
🕑 Added 2024-01-05 16:11:30 +0000 UTCOh boy, what an almost week!
Ep 3 has been well received by both the Newgrounds crew as well as Youtube. We should be hitting 300k views sometime today in fact, which is pretty good for us.
Right now I'm currently on the hunt for some freelance work to start to bolster our funding as the production costs for Ep 3 left us pretty much high and dry (not to mention taxes are coming).
With the Scritch & Scratch plush campaigns doing good (just less than 70 left to sell before we hit the 30% return bracket) I'm hoping with either the freelance work I'm hunting down or opening up commissions (heck maybe even both!) and with the plush campaigns reaching our desired goal of 500 sold each, we'll have enough funding to start voices and work on the boards.
If we want to have a similar turn around as ep 3, 4-5 months, and animation quality, we're gonna need to raise about $75k over that time period. It's too early to tell if that's possible or not but we'll know more come the end of January.
In the mean time, as Ash and I finalize the script for Ep 4, enjoy a sneak peak at some characters that feature in it~

These designs are fantastic. I really don't see why this indie show isn't doing the rounds as much online as other indie shows and it's fantastic :)

OMG, another episode with Tyneen and Kara? This makes me extra excited. I'll keep a close eye for those commissions if they end up happening.

Your work is genuinely amazing and me watching your stuff for free just spits on your work, so I wanted to at least provide a bit of support for the work you make. If I was a millionaire, I might as well give 10% of it to you and many creators, and the rest for pizza.

Your the first creator I decided to subscribe on Patreon, I imagine it was a monster to produce each episode with an enormous budget, but I hope that does not stifle your creativity.

Pretty sure he's "the boss" scratch is so afraid of. And if he's so powerful that he can look that relaxed and confident, it's hard to blame the cat on this one.
