Patreon regains senses, decides not to murder anyone! (also video preview)

Ay!

Patreon just announced that they are NOT making those crazy fee changes that I spoke about in my last post!
I was honestly incredibly worried that they wouldn't listen to the feedback given by the thousands of angry people throwing internet-rocks at them but, they did!!

This was the best birthday present (no offense to my family who gave me actual birthday pre...

ÜUUURG Patreon is about to murder us all

Ay.

So, as you've probably heard from just about everyone else, on the 18th of this month Patreon is to completely shit the bed by, for no good reason, shifting the service fee from creators to patrons.

This means each patron will have to pay a fee of 2.9% of whatever amount you're pledging + a $0,35 flat charge.

Effectively, this means you do not pay $1 as a standard...

Update on TTS Episode 26!

AY!

I figured it was due time for me to actually write an update regarding EP26, as well as some great news regarding an influx in editing-time.

First off, I have decided to entirely cut part of EP26 from EP26 and present it to you as a Special.

It will work as a prologue for EP26, in which the Eldar are presented in TTS for the first time ever. This...

Gathering QUESTIONS for If the Emperor had a Podcast EP2!

AY!

Once more, I am gathering  questions for If the Emperor had a Podcast!

For some context, the next episode is going to be concerning the Black Templars and how they work (at least according to the 4th edition Black Templar Codex). 

So, send in whatever questions you feel might be fun and the Emperor, his friends AND special summoned guest star High Marshal Helbre...

A Proposition Regarding the Future of TTS on Patreon

Ay there!

I got an idea from one of my patrons (ye boy Twinsinner specifically) that I wanted to share with anyone who's interested.

You know how TTS takes a fuckload of time to release because the episodes are so god damn long?

WELL - what if I were to, EXCLUSIVELY ON PATREON, split the episodes up in 10-minute chunks that I release ...

New Video Released! BRO TRIP 40,000 EP1 (download link for high-res version)

HELLO THERE!

It is time for another fucking video, wooooo!

This time, we're joining Corvus Corax, Vulkan and their respective Chapters on a trip to Catachan, where you get to learn the ins and outs of Catachan culture!

A quite experimental piece no doubt, and I can inform you, these episodes will be about 5-7 minutes long in the future, not this length, I'll keep the 20+ visua...

Alfabusa is testing out a Discord Channel oh no!

Ay there!

This message is to all $30+ pledgers.
First off, thank you so much for sticking around, it's absolutely insane how dedicated some of you are.
I figured you would deserve to be the first ones to be given access to my brand new Discord server that I went and made for my patrons!

Keep in mind that this is not so much a grand opening as it is also a test.

If the Emperor had a Podcast Episode 1 - The Last Church MP3 for Patrons!

AY!

The MP3 for EP1 of If the Emperor had a Podcast is now released exclusively for you here on Patreon!

In it, Emps and freens discuss "The Last Church" by Graham McNeill, probably the most well-known (and controversial) piece of 40k literature ever. I actually love the story so I had a lot of fun writing this episode.
Just beware, there's a lot of disse...

EDITOR SECUNDUS CONFIRMED

IT'S YE BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOY.

Karl the Deranged has now officially begun working with me on TTS!

While he does go to school and does have a social life (compared to the filthy dungeon-dweller typing this), he will be helping me with the visuals in After Effects, editing in more or less the exact same way I do (probably).

I am of course paying him a fair sh...

AY!

Once more, I am gathering more questions for If the Emperor had a Podcast!

For some context, the next episode is going to be concerning a short story that many have probably read called 'The Last Church' by Graham McNeill. It is a very divisive and interesting story concerning an old priest meeting a mysterious man called 'Revelation' who he then proceeds to have an argument about reli...

If the Emperor had a Podcast MP3!

Hello there!

So, a lot of people have been asking for an audio-version of the recently released podcast. I am unsure as of right now where to upload it, but I'll do so when I find a platform I deem decent enough.

For now though, I figured I could upload a link to you guys here on Patreon for the mp3, as I feel you deserve it!

Thank you for sticking around. OF COURSE; I am still worki...

If the Emperor had a Podcast - Episode 0: White Scars (Pilot)

HELLO THERE!

So, I've been working on this project for a while, which long-time patrons of mine may have noticed by now.

This project we've come to simply call 'If the Emperor had a Podcast'. Because that is basically what it is. It is a fully scripted show, much like the normal episodes, but in a podcast format, where the Emperor and friends discuss books they have found in the Black Libr...

AY THERE!

First of all, thank you all for your help this month! I've noticed that, holy crap, it has actually reached over the 2300-milestone - which I honestly did not expect to happen. But it has! And in doing so, I am going to start doing some 'lectures' on how to edit like me for a couple of people interested in helping out with editing, just so I can establish it thouroughly. Who knows, per...

TTS Q&A IS COMING BACK! (sort of) Come ask questions!

GREETINGS!

Now that EP25 is out of the way, I have now started working full time on the 'If the Emperor had a Podcast' project which I've talked about from time to time for a couple of months now.

The current episode that is in the works is Episode 0, which is effectively a pilot episode. It'll star the Emperor, Dorn, Wamuudes and Custodisi going through the White Scars lore that they had ...

First of all, I don't think I tell you often enough that I love you and I am sickened that I cannot do more for you.

TTS EP25 The Song of the Laughing God!

HI THERE!

I'm still at work on EP25! I have now covered the longest and most visually heavy scene in the entire episode, and I feel like you're going to really enjoy it (I hope).

I've now started composing the audio for some of the other scenes, but I felt kinda bad about not having anything to show visually. But then I realized, HEY, why don't I let you LISTEN to something instead?!

Really cheap TTS EP25 preview!

AY!

Sorry that I haven't posted any previews as of recently. Honestly, what I've been working on has been the heaviest, longest and most spoilerific scene in the entire video, so I really didn't want to upload any clips of it.

But uh... here's an image of it. YEAH AIN'T THAT GREAT?

However, I am closing in on the end of this scene, and after that, all that remains is pretty easy! I'm...

Also, I've got two new for th...

If the Emperor had a Podcast preview! Feedback required.

CHAOTIC SKETCH PREVIEWS (starring Perturabo)

HI THERE.

So, I was thinking about doing an update of some sort. I cannot currently show anything about the duel special because I haven't rendered anything new because that'd be an hour wasted on rendering a thing that I could've spent editing (this line of thinking varies in my head from time to time).
