Delays, burnout and updates
🕑 Added 2023-07-14 16:22:48 +0000 UTCThere won't be an animation tomorrow. I'm sorry, but simply because of how minor my patreon support is i just can't put out such colossal work monthly. I will be honest, i'm not sure about continuing making art at all.
I will finish the animation when i can and i will send it directly to everyone who had active pledge after 6th of July. You're free to cancel your subscriptions or do whatever, your decision. If you still wish to see me put out content then i would love to hear criticism of my animations and content in general - i really need suggestions on how to improve.
In general, in coming month i will concentrate on completing model commissions as soon as possible, so there won't be many posts from me except couple WiPs.
This page will soon see big changes too, so i'm sorry if you like it the way it is now, you can always consider pledging to other creators.

Dear friend, your animations are good. Do as you see fit. We are with you :)

Monthly animations are hard even when an artist can dedicate their full time to the effort; it's an unfortunate truth that this page isn't there yet. That hasn't stopped you though, and you've done excellent works here. I think that speaks to a rare passion that I genuinely hope will allow you to continue in some form. I think it's a good plan to scale things back to something that's easier to handle and on a equivalent level to the support you're getting. The model commissions are a good start since they're an obligation with an end state. When animation begins again, perhaps start with just still renders or very simple loops? They won't get too many eyes, but you won't be burning yourself out over a small amount. As for the changes, do what you've gotta do, just like the low posting amount to come. If you feel close to a burnout, ain't no shame in pausing the pledges so you can have a real break. Take care of yourself first, and the rest of the chips will land where they may. Personally, I hope they're on the side of further animating. :)
