Gildedguy Gets Up + 500K + Cameo Locations (Patreon)

Hi Patrons (especially the new ones!),

Gildedguy Gets Up is officially out on YouTube! It's been up for almost 1 week, and it's already at 620K views! There's been a lot of positive feedback too. Unlike the Shortnite release, this version contains the full Patron credits and cameos. 

I tried to make all eligible Patrons' names and Easter eggs fair and fun. If you had a Super Supporter Cameo, you can look for your cameo using the guide here:

The project page has a collection of screenshots and GIF's that you may download. Please share as you wish.

Channel Growth

Thanks to the Fortnite collaboration and new release, the main YouTube channel has reached 500k subscribers - halfway to 1 million! Gildedguy is getting a bit more popular, which is, generally speaking, a good thing.

I've been watching our collaborators channels experience similar boosts in engagement, which is great! Emma Stevens made a neat welcoming message thanks to the recent collab, check it out if you're curious about the singer behind "Gold Rush":

Big Blog Post

I just finished writing a big blog post about my thoughts on the Gildedguy Gets Up as a project. Read it here, it answers lots of questions about the whole production:

Story 7 Update

Gildedguy & the Rock Hard Gladiator is entering production mode, as the final team contracts have been signed and the schedule has been (mostly) set. The next few weeks will be full of concepts and pencil tests! I already have Kero (who does our merch) trying out vendors for trading cards. These should more reliably reach remote destinations during delivery. Note the gold foil gilding!

I look forward to getting back into the animation side of things, and so is the team:

• PowerMeep (Scoring/Music)
• Rebonkulous
• Soapy
• Boks
• Sareth

And here's a gift commission (unpaid) I drew on stream for fun:

That's all I have to report for now - thanks for supporting the channel!
