Hello everyone, Ducka here with an important announcement. Between trying to work on patreon and balance my everyday responsibilities, it has been getting stressful for me to try and keep up with both. It has made working on patreon and art not fun and more like a chore, and art is something I should be enjoying.Additionally, the work I post to patreon repeatedly gets leaked despite my best efforts to prevent such, which is very demotivating from making me want to share things in such a capacity as well. As a result, I am going to be taking some time to myself and closing down my Patreon after the month of March- meaning March will be the last month Patrons will be billed and the last month I will be posting Patreon content for before shutting it down. Maybe some time in the future I will come back with a new model for patreon that I can have fun with again, but for now I need to take care of myself. Thank you very much to everyone who has stuck with me and everyone who has been honest and not pirated my work; you all are the reason I kept going and your support helped more than you all know over the past couple of years. Thank you everyone, until next time!

Sincerely,

Ducka

🥲🥲 See you again ❤️

Please take care and rest well. I understand how stressful your situation is. Your happiness is very important so I'm glad that you are prioritizing it. If you feel that something that you usually enjoy is becoming a chore and making you unhappy, then it's good to step away from it for a while. Hope to see you again in the future❤

Understandable. Sometimes I think I see when you have fun drawing/doing your stories and when you force yourself to do them. Sticking to a format makes things even more difficult. I'd say I've been enjoying your fanarts a lot more than the ones that come out on top of the polls, with a few exceptions of course. 😅 I think you should stop doing polls, they seem like a competition, and only post what you like to create. We'll see what ideas you come back with, the important thing is that it's better for you. 😁 Rest well King 👑. You are already a legend, be good to yourself,do what makes you happy and achieve your true dreams. We love you. 💕 Make a wish. 💫

I remember telling you of that happening about a year ago (I think). It sucks. You do what you think is best, you'll still have supporters of your work regardless. Take care of yourself 🙏

Self care is always more important, so don't feel bad for taking care of yourself both mentally and physically. I'm sorry that there are people who have spread the work that you use as a part of your livelihood around without thinking of how that affects you. I hope that things get better for you and art becomes something that you enjoy doing again. Take your time, play video games, travel, just enjoy your time and we will be happy that you are happy.

It's terrible that people are leaking your hard work and ruining the experience for everyone else. I love your art style and I was always excited to see your monthly art packs. I'm going to miss seeing you on my feed but I will try to support your Gumroad works and keep up with you on Twitter.

Take care and be well! I can only imagine how the level of output demanded by a monthly Patreon can burn an artist out. Looking forward to seeing more of your art whenever and wherever you publish it.

Take care of yourself! Art should be an enjoyable activity and not a chore you burn yourself out over. Patreon is definitely stressful for an artist to consistently meet demands while maintaining quality, so I don’t blame you for wanting to stop. Your mental health matters most above all. It also sucks that pirates are leaking your hard work. Like others have said above, I enjoyed a lot of the fan arts you posted yourself and can see the intense passion you put into them without having to worry about meeting the demands from monthly polls. I’m definitely gonna miss your Patreon content, but I’ll continue to support and follow your future works. You have one of my favorite bara art styles. Have a nice rest and best of luck in your future endeavors! ❤️

Will the content you posted stay on here, or will it disappear?

Henry Whiteman

I am glad you will be taking time for yourself, devoting all your creative energy toward Patreon can be stifling. I'll still support you where I can in the future,

I'm really sorry! I love your art. But as a fellow creator I totally understand. Also my comics are leaking all the time, but I think my problem is gumroad. Anyway, take care of yourself!
