Hey, I'm going through an especially-long video drought this time around, so I thought I'd like to tell you that I have a few videos that go behind-the-scenes of how I make my videos while you guys wait!
Watch here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQFHz8gBr0Q&list=PL1IR2gCDHo8LGu3HeBwTDSHr_K6kuWKad
I don't know when exactly I'll come back, but it'll definitely be before the end of the year. Hope you understand, and take care! (And the software I use is Blender 3D, since I get asked so much)

I had to unlist a video from Newgrounds, specifically my most recent one about my Sponsus and Patreon. I accidentally promised more than I could actually make in a month, so I've scaled back my monthly rewards significantly. You can still watch the unlisted video here if you're curious about what it was.
In the meantime, I'll be going into video hibernation again for my own mental health. Best to keep this as just a hobby and not something full-time.

I'm back from the dead!
Spent a few weeks preparing my Sponsus and Patreon, and now they're ready. Check out the whole deal in the video I posted, and I'll see you next time with normal videos.

Just recently finished an interview with Wikitubia saying how I want to do wavetro full-time after I finish college without resorting to YouTube ad revenue.
Not a week goes by and I've just been offered a deal with the devil.
If I take the offer, I can secure a stronger chance at the video-making dream, but at the expense of being another enabler of giant video companies controlling the web. If I don't take the offer, I'll have more integrity, but at the cost of a slimmer chance of ever getting the dream.
I know you guys don't give a shit about YouTube, but what do you think I should do?
Thanks for the feedback guys. I looked into YouTube ads more and realized I can't really run anything shorter than 15 seconds without putting the annoying Skip Ads button. This person also made a great point that people binging my videos would be irritated by the ads since everything is 1-2 minutes apiece.
So I'm casting the ring into the fire and looking into sites like Patreon. (I'll be running polls on my Twitter and YouTube soon asking some questions about that too if you're interested.)

You're probably wondering why there isn't a video today. Truth be told, I can't keep up with videos every Thursday anymore. I'm gonna downgrade my schedule to just "every week" now.
I will never forgive myself if I don't at least stick to some regular upload schedule, so going forward I'll still aim to finish and upload new shit on Thursdays, but I will now allow myself to push the due date to Friday or Saturday if need be. (I will literally die if I don't cut myself some slack it's 3 AM right now)
Hope you guys understand! ...I mean you probably do, my old schedule was pretty intense lol

My Newgrounds page, which turns a year old this month, hit 1,000 fans this morning. I'm overwhelmed at how fast I've been growing on this site and how receptive the entire community has been to my 3D videos, even though they're nothing Pixar or Dreamworks-quality. Thank you for all the love, it means so much!!!
I have a special video coming at the very end of March not just to celebrate this occasion, but to look back on all the years I've spent making videos, so stay tuned for that.
Again, thank you Newgrounds. You've shown me that anyone with a creative drive can find a place to belong on here. <3
