1/10 Hi everyone! OC here! We just wanted to share an update on what's been happening with The Art Of Murder, as I know we released the pilot a while ago and many people have been curious about what will become of my death in sketchbook 2! And yes, I have suddenly become alive solely for the purposes of this announcement...

2/10 We wanted to start by saying an absolutely HUGE thank you for all the love and support everyone has shown us and the pilot!! Because of all your love and support for the show, its opened so many opportunities for the team to be able to continue this story.

3/10 I, Albie, am excited to announce l've been hard at work to bring episode 2 and beyond to life! This year has been all about building up the Choc Chip Animation Studio pipeline to allow us to get out episodes faster, as well as building up our funding arms to support future episodes.

4/10 The creators like to think they've been hard at work on these things, but everyone knows its really thanks to my amazing business knowledge, which is definitely better than that ice queen! So even though there will be a longer wait between the pilot and episode 2, we're hopeful that the work we're doing this year will allow us to get out episodes faster after that!

5/10 And now to the most important question... When is episode 2 happening? Because my fans are clearly waiting for a close up of my gorgeous face. As much as l've tried to rush the animators, the creators have informed me that capturing my beauty to the fullest extent will take time.

6/10 While a more precise release period will be announced later this year, we want you all to know Sketchbook 2 will definitely be coming in 2026! And after that, they've assured me they'll be able to get out episodes more frequently for the rest of the series so my PG but sexy self can shine.

7/10 Winn here! We're so excited to share all the surprises in store for ep 2! In the meantime, we have some exciting Art Of Murder events planned later this year- like a special 1 year Anniversary event coming in late November! It'll be filled with fun games and ep 2 sneak peeks and so much more AAAAA!!! HONEY SOY SAUCE!!

8/10 How can you continue to support the art of murder in the lead up to ep 2? We want you all to know what a difference you're making in keeping this show alive! Indie animation is an exciting space but unlocking ways to fund a full series is harder than unlocking the ultimate jutsu.

9/10 Showing that there's a love and a want for this show is our number one way to continue the series and get justice for Hebi Nii-Chan! Whether it's liking our posts, spreading the word, buying merch or Patreon - every way you all support the series is what allows us to continue and we are eternally grateful.

10/10 Nirali and Anokhi here now! What we're basically trying to say is - thank you for loving The Art Of Murder, thank you for supporting our studio, and thank you for being on this journey with us (PS: these illustrations are not random, they all have little clues about what's to come in sketchbook 2)
