It's been a while since I've updated this blog. So I should probably tell you where the hell I've been, right?
Nowhere, really. I've been nowhere. I haven't been doing much for the last couple months but now I'm back and in business. Here's what you can expect from me hopefully from now until early 2026?
Mr. Knives for Hands!
I've started work on the next episode of Mr. Knives for Hands. Spoiler: it involves a goat.
So far it's very early in production. I have the script, and temp audio has been recorded, and I'm working on the animatic. After that I'll work on casting and getting the final audio done and animating and all that shit. Here's one of the storyboards:
I originally wrote this, and the first episode, back in 2023. So after this, it's all new blood, baby. That's about it for the world of Mr. Knives for Hands for now.
Sketches!
I'm still hard at work on sketches. We released one back in October but we had to take it down.. sorry! I'm working on rewriting one that we shot months ago and I wasn't a big fan of. I'm also currently working on Al Heimers 2, which I won't say much about.. but it's happening and in very very VERY early stages of production.

Next up on the itinerary:
PATREON & MERCH & MONEY STUFFS!
I'm slowly coming to realise that it's hard to do all this nonsense for free. Eventually I'd like to make better videos and hire people to help me work on them like artists and animators and voice actors. People don't do that for free, unfortunately.. But I have some ideas to help fund all this. I'd like to start a Patreon eventually, simple £5 and £10 tiers, with benefits like early access to videos, behind the scenes, discord server, outtakes, name in credits, you know the usual stuff people get off a Patreon. If there's anything additional people would want from that, let me know. I'd love to have physical benefits like stickers or sending people scripts but I don't know how mail works because I'm an idiot caveman. For people who actually want stuff like that, I'm going to sell merch. I don't know what service I'm going to definitively use for that, but Fourthwall is looking okay to me. I'll sell stickers, t-shirts and posters, with all your favourite characters on. There's even some Alien Man stuff in the mix. I do love Alien Man. He's my favourite, at least. I don't know when any of this is going to be finally properly released but most likely after Mr. Knives for Hands ep2.
So does that clear everything up? I've been gone for a while but I am hard at work, except for when I'm playing GTA V. I've become addicted to that lately. oops. Stay tuned. Follow me on Bluesky.
