Hi all, 

Animation for the Battle of Borodino video is now complete! I've attached some screenshots to give you an idea of how it's looking. 

The battle section is about 13 minutes long, which means we're going into a lot more detail than usual. For those who don't know the story, I'll just say that although it was not a very tactically sophisticated battle (see first screenshot for Napoleon's plan of attack!), it was full of extraordinary levels of bravery, sacrifice and bloodshed. 

Quite a few things still to do - script recording, music, sound effects, etc. - but I hope to have this ready for Patreon early access in less than 2 weeks. (just need Charles to get back from holiday!)

More updates soon..

Hi Toby. I just became a Patron after watching your videos for the best part of a year. I can honestly say that your channel is my absolute favourite on YouTube and your content is the most well-produced of the historical documentary genre - even better than what's on TV. Keep it up, I look forward to each and every video and am so glad to finally be supporting you!
