What's happening with Kev now?
- Kev's out of pre-production since early this year
- Voiceovers are done (watch out for 2025! 👀)
- NEW Character designs dropping from tomorrow onwards
We'll mainly continue refining the look of this series while other Toonshed projects are WIP!

Since we rebooted the project back in 2023, a lot has changed. Everything you saw at the time - even in the trailer - has since had a massive overhaul...
The series is going 2.5D in its art direction!
