August, start (plans and stuff for the month)

So, with Hiro 2 out, and my vacation over, it's time to get things sorted out. HERE'S WHAT I GOT PLANNED:

• First, I need to get caught up on patreon rewards. Got a handful of them from last month, and several this month that I'll be sending messages out for in a few days (after payments fully process). I can tackle about 3 a day so I'm not worried about this being too much or anything.
• I'm in discussions with Crowdmade about  merch, and may have some cool new merch options soon. (Likely will be moving all my recent shirts to Crowdmade, as well as introduce a few new ones. Show of hands: who wants a tiny embroidered Cesil sticking out of their pocket?)
• I want to do a few new nsfw gifs soon, using the tentacle trick I used in Hiro 2. (Mmm tasty)
• PV02 will be resuming after this Sunday. (Meaning I'll start work on the next update after Sunday. Meaning the next update will be in just over a week from now.)
• I want to start working on some animation rigs for PV02 as well. I have made several Pivot rigs before, 2 in Toon Boom even, but I think it's high time I actually made a strong, flexible one using what I know now. (Oh how badly I want to do more PV02 animations.)
• As a reminder, if you're in the $10 or higher tier, you can commission me at any time! These might take a bit longer than normal commissions, but they'll get done. At the moment, my rates are based on quotes. I have an old list of rates in the discord server as a ballpark. Even when things are busy, don't hesitate to ask about commissions--it's good to get that stuff sorted out in advance, so I can get started as soon as I have time, rather than having to discuss it then.
• If I have time, I want to spice up my Patreon page as well as other social media stuff I use. Get some improved art, etc. I really wanna clean up my Patreon page so the tiers have graphics to go with them, and get myself a new Youtube banner done up.
• I kinda wanna get back to doing the video on critique that I had put on the backburner. I also wanna get back into doing tutorials for animation. With the new merch options, a few small videos here and there would be a really good idea. On that note, I also wanna consider some super short animations involving my characters (e.g. short cute ones of Cesil).

If you guys wanna spitball ideas at me, feel free to as well! This may seem like a lot of stuff but it's really a fairly normal workload, to be honest, and still leaves a lot of gaps for me to work on more things or do sketches, etc.
