Hey all! It seems I didn't fill up the Ep.11 notebook used to draft ideas even halfway, so it's now become the notebook for both episodes. Here's a detailed update on what I'm doing right now.
Episode 12 is currently being drafted out and is in the early stages of the writing process. I've gotten the writers...
2026-02-02 01:07:42 +0000 UTC View PostGetting the Ditto face right was a long and expensive process between me and PrimatePunk. Before creating the drawings that became the final images seen in the episode, we did a version where he animated the face on top of the rough draft.

Fun fact: Episode 10 was actually made in 720p but upscaled for the upload. Episode 11 is the first one created entirely in 1080p.
Hi. It's finished.
This teaser will go public on Christmas morning and the episode will launch on the 31st. I wanted to give you access earlier, but I didn't want to jynx it until I had the full episode intact. And I literally just finished it just now as I'm typing this.
I still have to make the thumbnail a...

I finished Scene F and am now finishing Scene D. The entire episode is now almost entirely rendered out and I've completed the detail adjustments and fixes on C and D. Here's where we're at:
A - Complete
B - Complete
C - Complete
D - One FX element
F - Complete
X - One FX fix 2025-12-11 19:29:49 +0000 UTC View Post
Okay. Scene F has now come leaps and bounds. The episode now looks roughly like it did when I imagined the idea years ago, so I'm happy about that. But I desperately need to wrap up these pesky loose ends.
Here's where we're at:
A - Complete
B - Complete
C - Minor fixes
