Plans, next projects, etc.

So, I spent the evening getting the script for pretty much most of the next PV02 chapter typed up (spoilers: it's something I've been building up to for a while.)

This made me realize how badly I want to do this next part animated, and exactly what I want to do.

So, to get everything laid out:

The comic updates planned before the animation release total about 6 to 7. This is about 3 months of updates between then and now. (Each month is 2 updates at my current rate.)
Estimated runtime is about 2-3 minutes
I'd need to build assets, the animatic, and have the voicework and audio done by then.
This would all need to be worked on parallel to any patreon commissions, rewards, other pieces, and the comic itself.
Given the time span, if I stay committed and work efficiently it should be possible. Hiro 2, which was 9 minutes, was worked on from February to July, taking 5 months. This would be higher intensity animation (action animation, full rigs, etc.), but would be a shorter cartoon. Override likewise originally took 2 months, but I had been working on it with the weekly updates, which at the time were made in flash (so I could make assets as part of the comic updates).
For assets I'd need, I'd need a rig for Pivot, Socket, Gyro, an unknown, and a few low detail generics. I'd also need to design a few setpieces.

I'm going to try and make it happen, but this is basically the next big thing to expect from me, and is a really important project for me. Override is a huge milestone for my work.
