Next 1st you WON'T be charged! Pausing Patreon for 1 month.
🕑 Added 2020-10-08 17:27:06 +0000 UTCHey guys! Please read this announcement.
I've been trying to delay this as much as I could, but I really need to take a break. Those of you who have been my patrons for years know that this is the first time I announce some time off, that's not because I never took vacations before, but because every time I did (usually once a year) I would work harder the previous months to get one or two pics done beforehand so you wouldn't notice when I'm gone and you would get the same amount of pics. This time though, I haven't been able to work on any extra pics and furthermore, I've been noticing I'm working slower and barely making it in time with the four monthly pics.
It's been over a year now since I last took sime time off, so before I completely burn out and because I don't want to sacrifice quality/details in my works I decided to "Pause" my Patreon for 1 payment cycle (next 1st of November)
This means YOU WON'T BE CHARGED next 1st, and I'll be taking this month off (October). Some could argue I could have just done fewer pics and charge normally but I believe you guys deserve the best I can give, and the best value out of your support.
Screenshot:
As of today, the next payment cycle is deactivated so don't go anywhere! you don't need to unsubscribe (I really hope you don't). I will resume the creation of new content after the next 5th of November. I will, however cease this chance to move forward with the written stories I have going (Truth or Snare, Elizabeth, Jasmine) and I'll post those within this month. I know is not great news, and I'm sorry about that. But I'm sure taking some time off will ultimately be best for all. I really appreciate your support and thank you all in advance for your understanding.

i'll forgive you as long as we get an "all the way though" tentacle in an upcoming pic. preferably regarding a one hermione granger :-P if there was ever a year that a person needed a break in, it's this one, hope you enjoy it.

No problemo! It's important to take breaks, I have seen artist burn out before. So enjoy you're month off and be comfy :D

No worries! Your work is always amazing and it's crazy how much you manage to release every month, no wonder you need some time off! Enjoy! :)
Stephen Turner
Rest. Refresh. Recharge. And take care of yourself! You deserve a break.
Treat yourself!
Marvin
If you need a break, take it. The written stories will wet our appetite in the meantime. I ordered like 50 horror movies plus more bookmarked on streaming services so I'll have a lot to watch in October.

It's 2020, I think everybody needs a rest this year.

Already been said, but I want to echo it. It has been a rough year and it's okay to take time off. You absolutely deserve it ❤️
Joseph
Take a break and look after yourself - see you whenever you come back!
Breaks and vacations are important. Love your work.
Good deal
Mr Stealth
You just take a long, well deserved break. Even with a slight decrease in the amount of art you delivered, the quality and enjoyment of getting it has been great. And getting burnt out definitely isn`t good. So dont you worry about us.
Totally fair mate. Enjoy your holiday!
Hadley
Well deserved to be honest mate, I'll definitely be here when you get back! Happy Holidays!
Kyri Arriaga
I'm glad you're taking time for you! I'm here to stay, along with many others, pal. Enjoy your vacation. Godspeed and safety to your family and you.

Means a lot, specially coming from a new Patron!
Ninjartist

I thought that something like this was on the way. Kinda sad, but if it will help you than it's worth it! See ya in a month, Ninja!
Maig

This has come up on a couple of my patreons from time to time and I'll say what I always tell others. Personally, I very much believe in vacation, and by vacation I mean *paid* vacation. I'm here to support your work, and as part of that I also want to support you having a healthy work life. I think you should be able to take breaks, so there could be months with little or no content and I would happily continue to support you at the rate I always support you at. So, absolutely no complaint from me about you taking a break, please, get away and enjoy some free time... if there is anywhere to get away to right now... I'll be here when you get back, and if you want to charge for the month, I'd be fine with that too as long as it's reasonable (If you took 6 months off in a row, I'd be less supportive of it... heh).

As a content creator I can relate. Don't worry, your work can wait. Take time, health always first.

Thanks Jim, I'm most certaint I'll resume my work with much more inspiration :)
Ninjartist
Thanks for understanting man, I really appreciate it :)

I, for one, know how damaging it can be to go for long periods of time (multiple years) without taking any kind of significant break. Go ahead and take a break. You deserve it. We (at least most of us, I'm sure) will still be here when you get back.
Jamie Rain
Take the time you need. Burning out can be the worst. Thank you for being straight forward and honest about it. I'm sure this break will bring even more life into your works.
MLane
no worries mate. been expecting things to tip over for a few months now, glad your taking time off :) If the stories are still continuing, any chance of Nagini? You said a while back it was on your to-do list
Aximey
You fuckin deserve a break dude! Probably one of the most consistent in quality I've seen. Take care and stay safe Ninja!!!
James
Not going anywhere. Take the time you need Ninja. You’ve got my support!
