Coconut Printing Madness - Thank You!
A bunch of you guys have placed orders for the new Gildedguy Figurines, allowing me to recoup costs for my 3D printing venture. Thank you! I was not expecting this volume of orders, so the past week has been filled with a lot of packaging, tape, and addresses.

I've been reinvesting the earnings into more equipment, including a third printer so that I may prototype, design, and manufacture models more quickly. I will admit it's been somewhat overwhelming, but I've recruited help from my younger brother, who is ecstatic to help (see pic below):
Gildednutz 2 has also spawned a lot of funny jokes and fanart, so I'd say it was a successful April Fool's Day!
Special Offer: If you'd like a free coconut head figurine, you still have 1 more day to order!
Animation Progress
Story 7 is in a grind mode in some areas (Act III animation), while making big progress in others (inking/backgrounds). This is expected, since we've been saving a lot of chi energy for the ending. I've plotted out a detailed production schedule (day by day) that will hopefully allow us to finish the battle sometime next month.

Again, we're in spoiler mode so I won't report much! Please know that we're workin' on it everyday.
Story 7 Keychains Out for Printing
Thanks to the efforts of Kero, all four new keychain designs have been submitted to the printers and are being manufactured. These keychains will feature a neat little QR code you can scan on the back of the card. Horay for new features!
Heads up: There may be some slight changes to the way I offer them out (since there's just so many to ship out). I might do the survey form again, or give patrons a special code to use on my website's store. More details to come on that!
Alright, Imma go back to work, thanks for checking in o7
