Nideo Progress:
• Fesh Pince:Going along with my plan from last month's update, I spent a little less time working on the Robotnik YTP so I could focus more on FP4. The usual business ensued - tweaking edits, adding new stuff, and working to improve the flow of the video. I'm trying to hunker down to get more things done and not fixate so much on the little details, but it ain't easy for me. Takes a lot of time to comb through episodes and transcripts, finagling with the material to get optimal edits. We're getting there though!My plan for July is to thoroughly clean up and trim down the main project so that Sony Vegas runs better while I edit. As it stands, my project is a huge, laggy mess. All the extra scraps on the side - as well as the various alternate versions of scenes I keep on standby - are causing an irritating amount of slowdown during the editing process. Gotta clean that sucker up so it doesn't shit out for several seconds every time I want to move a tiny clip around. Don't worry though; I keep backups of all the extra stuff in earlier versions of the project, just in case I eventually want to share them as deleted/alternate scenes.• Robotnik Destroys Steven Universe:Even though RDSU took a back seat this month, I still did make some decent progress on it. The Sneak Peek I showed was a sample of what I worked on this month, and I've been slowly working on adding and finishing the various other scenes. I'll try not to neglect Robotnik too much, even if I am focusing more on FP4 going forward.• Reminder about the delay for FP4 in relation to future nideos:
My next nideo after FP4 won't take nearly as long to complete as FP4 is taking. It's very important for me to make sure FP4 lives up to the legacy of the previous installments, so I'm taking as much time as necessary to come up with worthy edits, and to polish the hell out of it. FP4 is also significantly longer than my usual nideos - adding to the delay. After it's complete, I'll focus on making nideos that aren't as absurdly long, and my upload cadence will be more reasonable.

Miscellaneous/Closing Thoughts:
While not perfect, this month was a lot calmer for me than the last few, which I am very much grateful for. I don't have anything too interesting to share beyond what I've already said in the above sections. Just hoping I don't run into any issues, and editing progress continues at a reasonable pace.Thanks for hanging in there with me, swell pals! I'm still over here appreciating the heck out of your swollen support! And guess what? My appreciation doesn't depreciate - it only propagates. I can't thank you all enough for your patience - I'll do my best to reward it.Wishing all of you swell folks the best, and I'll see ya in July for the next update!
tl;dr:
-Slammed down another Sneak Peek at "Robotnik Destroys Steven Universe"! Click here to see it!-Fesh Pince took priority over RDSU this month, and I made some decent progress with the usual Fesh editing rigamarole as a result.-Plan to trim down all the extra scraps and unused alternate scenes in my main FP4 project so it runs better while I'm editing. I'll still have backups of that extra stuff in earlier versions of my projects, just in case I eventually decide to share them as deleted/alternate scenes.-Even though the Robotnik YTP took a back seat this month (and will for the foreseeable future) I still managed to make some decent progress on it. FP4 will continue to be the priority, but I will ensure the Robotnik nideo is still worked on regularly.-Reminder: Once Fesh Pince 4 is complete, I'll be uploading nideos at a more reasonable pace. FP4 is long as heck, and needs extra time in the oven to maximize smiles.-Thank you sweet swellhearts so much for all the continued support! I appreciate your patience immensely, and I'll do my best to reward it!
