Thanks for the facial hair feedback from every one. Wow! That’s the most LJ comments I’ve gotten since I announced I was publishing a book, for cryin’ out loud. The Van Dyck brought out the people.

This week I’ve been busting my ass to get a whole pile of things done – old projects hanging over my head, college responsibilities and making sure upcoming projects are organized. I think it’s working. Even though the studio is as busy as ever, I actually feel like things are under control. I can choose to do artwork for a project instead of being forced to because we’re overwhelmed with things that need to get done.

Over the holidays Erik and I discussed ways to market the company even more. I suggested creating an Udon Studio DeviantArt page as a cheap and useful way to showcase work most people wouldn’t know was done by us. I’m happy to say that it’s been unbelievably successful, even just in the short time we’ve had it up. In just over 2 weeks we’ve had over 50,000 unique pageviews (over 200,000 views as a whole) and over 2000 people subscribed to watch our site and be notified every time it updates. It’s been a fantastic way to promote our lesser known artists and show people the wide variety of artwork we create for our clients. Nifty keen!

All in all, things are going pretty well.
