📖OPENING 📖
Greetings, fellow SN user and SNW supporter! I am Tenebrus or Birch, the person who decided to revive the former RHG Shop, now known as the SN workshop!

While I was on hiatus mainly due to having to deal with some IRL stuff along with having to deal with an unexpected illness, I was offline most of the time and was only active for a bit on the SNW discord server. During my hiatus, I felt that in order for the SNW group and discord server to grow and to further improve it’s quality, the SNW group should not rest on it’s current success, but to use it as a stepping stone towards newer horizons!

So after discussing things with the creators, I am proud to announce the NEW changes me and the creators have worked on and agreed upon!

📊STATISTICS 📊
But before we get into the meat on the very succulent SNW bone, I would like to first talk about some statistics I’ve gathered since the revival of the SNW site!

Since the group’s revival back in the 10th of October 2023 (Almost a month and a half ago) the SNW workshop has:

Finished over 49-50 projects! 🛠️

Have 103 members join the group! 🧑‍🤝‍🧑🧑‍🤝‍🧑

Reach 300+ members! 🎊🎊🎊

Have over 87 members in the discord server in just 6 weeks! 🧑‍🤝‍🧑🧑‍🤝‍🧑🧑‍🤝‍🧑

It blows my mind that the SNW group was able to grow this much in just over a week!
I’m forever grateful towards the people who support the SNW group as well as the Creators who help with the requests! 💓❤️❤️

I hope that the SNW workshop will continue to grow and become even more relevant in the SN community, as a solid pillar of the community and a example of what the SN community is capable of if unified under a mutual and noble cause!

📢ANNOUNCEMENT 📢
Now that the statistics are out of the way, it is now time for me to talk about the big Announcement!

After discussing the future of the SNW group along with also having a one on one with the log-master himself 🍋, through various meetings and talks, I have come to realize that in order for the SNW workshop to continue to stay afloat and to not sink into irrelevancy, efforts should be taken on the SOCIAL aspect of the group!

My current vision for the SNW group is for it to be a place where animators like you and me could request help from those who are skilled in the art of figure making so that you, the animator, could focus more on what made you interested at Sticknodes in the first place, the ANIMATING!

I want the group to live for as long as possible, not only so it could continue to help and assist people, but for it to also create a legacy of charity and kindness, for it to be influential enough to be a pillar of the SN community! So along with a slight revision towards the regulation policy as well a potential revamp on the moderating side of the group (potential announcement for that coming soon), we are proud to announce 3 BIG NEW FEATURES that we think would help with our new agenda, which is to make the group more active and present in the SN social circle!

INTRODUCING…. 🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁

💎SNW EVENTS 💎
We are working on hopefully making monthly events a thing, but for now me and the creators have 3 interesting events planned! Hopefully through these events, we are able to drive more traffic towards the workshop as well as to also encourage more interaction with the SN community!

The 2 of the three events involve the creators as well as the participation of the community!
as much as I‘d like to talk about them, I also want to keep the details a secret for now >:D
You guys will have to find out once the details get revealed~ 🫢🤫

WEEKLY LOGS! (SWWL) (STICKNODES WORKSHOP WEEKLY LOG) 🪵🪵🪵
I’ve been planning for the SNW group have weekly logs for some time now. (I’m not trying to copy you lemon, please don’t sue me) The purpose of these weekly logs will mainly be to give a summary towards what happened during the week in addition to including other neat stuff including: The best request of the week, who did the most requests, most requested creator of the week, as well as most upvoted request! all in a short, digestible, and easy to read format!

END OF THE MONTH DUMP! (SWEMD) 💩💩
This will be quite similar with the SWWL but in a more detailed and longer format! All of the BIG things that happened during the month, or any relevant news or announcements will most likely be announced in the SWEMD, in addition to also announcing who the most popular creator/request was of that month.
I’m also planning on adding a google forums link with every SWEMD for the purpose of giving suggestions for the group and what you think we should do to improve the group! (New event suggestions, tips, potential criticisms, etc..)

📕CLOSING 📕
A lot has happened in such a short amount of time. I can’t believe that It all just started out of impulse when I randomly decided to revive the RHG shop and shape it into what it is now. Although traces of the past are still seen, I wish for…[Read more]
