Description
After the recent presumed burial of an Intergalactic Saurian Overlord, Londoners across the capital have since gone out to find a Mayor to point the finger at the next time a rogue Bobby wrecks some protester. Since elections boil down to which Saturday Morning Cartoon Villain wants to screw you least, I figured "Hey, Mantaklaw should do the job!" For a bloke on the wrong side of the law, he must have the people's best interests in mind or at least wants to get my favourite museums prospering again.

To slap my wrist and regain my focus, since my last news Post in January I have kept busy with Art uploads, each with insights. To lay down the bullet points of what's happened, here it goes:
. I did an art stream on Youtube at long last in February. It was briefly thwarted by YT's music moderation due to Copyright, but I substituted my extreme metal playlist in favour YT's stock. I don't think that's bad at the moment and I have considered experimenting and mixing the stock tracks so that the Mods don't have all the fun. There's nothing to say that I won't continue doing short streams on Instagram with a playlist on.
. I did record a 20 minute video a few weeks back during one of my walks. I discussed my plans and broke the ice about my choice of art materials. Part of my idea, to start off with, was to do videos of me telling stories, experiences and ideas while hanging around points of interest (e.g. museums). I don't just want videos in my work area. Once I get past the gag reflex of seeing myself as some goof on camera, I'd like to upload it and take the bull by the horns, with an intro and outro vid of course.
. New Products are in the works for Redbubble. Saying no more. Just wait and see. It will be delightful.
. I've been working Patreon exclusive art and a tier list has been planned. I'm adding the icing on the cake of the last few now.

While I'm not a perfectionist, I'm at least an economist. I like to keep releases organised and localised to stand out greater. Patreon and Youtube will benefit each other in the coming days, and upon laying down the foundations, I look forward to growing them both based on feedback and ventures. With the cornerstones of my business laid out, I also want to continue comic production afterwards. The highest tier of my Patreon will not only offer digital copies of my current library but also work in progress of the entirety of new books. It'll effectively be a paid webcomic service. Printed versions of the books will still be on the cards especially for the incentive glamour in the print process (e.g. Hard cover with silver gloss?). So good times!

Lastly I'd like to give a special shout out to Stephen Silver's podcast that I tuned into while I was working on this artwork. I stayed up to 4 in the morning to listen to a great video as he asked many a live student on the Zoom stream about their biggest fears and gripes. A truly motivating guy and I highly recommend him.

Hope to see you all at the end of this trip! xxx -Tuke
