Cecilia's eyes (Patreon)

So... I have to say that I'm writing this down with literal tears in my eyes. I'm so sad and angry. I've just been ditched by Amaltea, the Cecilia's eyes illustrator, who suddenly 'isn't feeling it anymore'. I am absolutely gutted, because I have invested thousands of dollars into this. We made clear understandings but apparently that is worth nothing.

I also feel bad for my patrons in this and I just don't know what to do by now. I could say I proceed with another artist, but not many people can draw the same as Amaltea. What would you advise me to do? 

I'm just really fucking sad right now. Also because she agreed to work on an extra Patreon comic and now just ditches me with the note 'it was just work for her' and 'I shouldn't take it personally'. 

I have two more episodes which I will publish on schedule and further, I'm just...really sad.
